• Cancellation   Due to the bespoke nature of printed work, John Brailsford Print (Yorkshire) Ltd is unable to cancel a job or refund monies paid during production. All sales are final. We will however be happy to cancel any job at any stage and issue an invoice for the work done to that point. See section 7(f) for cancellation charges.
• Price Variation   Estimates are based on the printer’s current costs of production and unless otherwise agreed, are subject to amendment on or at any time after acceptance to meet any rise or fall in such costs.
• VAT   Prices quoted usually do not have Value Added Tax (VAT) automatically included, but this will be charged where applicable. Examples (at current publication time) of zero rated items are books, booklets, leaflets with a finished or folded size not greater than A4 (297mm x 210mm) supplied in quantities of not less than 50 copies. In the case of a customer who is not contracting in the course of a business nor holding himself out as doing so, the printer reserves the right to charge the amount of any value added tax payable whether or not included on the estimate or invoice.

When style, type or layout is left to the printer’s judgment, changes thereafter made by the customer shall be charged extra.

(b) Delivery times will be confirmed on your order acknowledgement but John Brailsford Print (Yorkshire) Ltd can usually ensure delivery within 5 working days but dependent on the type of work this can be as little as 1 day and as much as 15 days. (c) Delivery of work shall be accepted when tendered and thereupon or, if earlier, on notification that the work has been completed the ownership shall pass and payment shall become due. (d) Unless otherwise specified the price quoted is for delivery of the work to the customer’s address as set out in the estimate. A charge may be made to cover any extra costs involved for delivery to a different address. (e) Should expedited delivery be agreed an extra cost may be charged to cover any overtime or any additional costs involved. (f) Should work be suspended at the request of or delayed through any default of the customer for a period of 30 days the printer shall then be entitled to payment for work already carried out, materials specially ordered and other additional costs including storage. (g) Until such time as the property and the goods passes to the buyer (and provided the goods are still in existence and have not been resold) the seller should be entitled to at any time to require the buyer to deliver the goods to the seller and, if the buyer fails to do so forthwith, to enter upon any premises of the buyer or any third party where the goods are stored and re-possess the goods. (h) Cash, cheque or electronic payments must always be paid prior to delivery except in the case of other approved payment. If any account, approved or otherwise remains unpaid after 60 days, a levy of 5% of the net invoice charge, per month will be made by way of a further invoice each month the account remains unpaid.

All other claims must be made in writing to the printer within 14 days of delivery. The printer shall not be liable in respect of any claim unless the aforementioned requirements have been complied with except in any particular case where the customer proves that (i) it was not possible to comply with the requirements and (ii) advice (where required) was given and the claim made as soon as reasonably possible.
• Liability   (a) We shall not be liable for indirect loss or third party claims occasioned by delay in completing the work or for any loss to the customer arising from delay. (b) Where work is defective for any reason, including negligence, our liability (if any) shall be limited to rectifying such defect providing notification of the defect is received in writing within 7 days of delivery.

(b) Type may be distributed and lithographic, photogravure or other work effaced immediately after the order is executed unless written arrangements are made to the contrary. In the latter event, rent may be charged. (c) John Brailsford Print (Yorkshire) Ltd accepts that any material produced for the customer for a particular job shall be deemed the customer’s property assuming that it has been paid for in full.

Additional cost incurred if materials are found to be unsuitable during production may be charged except that if the whole or any part of such additional cost could have been avoided but for unreasonable delay by the printer in ascertaining the unsuitability of the materials then that amount shall not be charged to the customer. (b) Where materials are so supplied or specified, the printer will take every care to secure the best results, but responsibility will not be accepted for imperfect work caused by such defects in or unsuitability of materials so supplied or specified. (c) Quantities of materials supplied shall be adequate to cover normal spoilage.
• Customer Satisfaction   In the event of any complaint relating to the finished product, the customer must inform the offices of John Brailsford Print (Yorkshire) Ltd within seven days from the date of delivery/collection of the goods.

Such returns to John Brailsford Print (Yorkshire) Ltd will be transported at John Brailsford Print (Yorkshire) Ltd expense. Colour: Spot colour – for small runs we will mix any spot colour but cannot guarantee to match it or the repetition of it on a further order. For a specific spot colour we are happy to stock your Pantone colour(s) for a once only charge – please contact us for further details. Process colour – Due to the variation in origination and production processes an exact colour match from process colour CMYK or RGB colour file orders cannot be guaranteed and different processes of litho and digital when used at the same time will offer some variation in the finished colour. Trimming – every effort is made to ensure that jobs are trimmed to crop marks and accuracy is guaranteed to the manufacturer’s tolerance of the guillotine used. It is best to allow +/- 2.0mm. Variations in quantity – every endeavour will be made to deliver the correct quantity ordered, but estimates are conditional upon margins of 5 per cent for work in one colour only and 10 per cent for other work being allowed for overs or shortage (4 per cent and 8 per cent respectively for quantities exceeding 50,000) the same to be charged or deducted.

(b) The printer shall be indemnified by the customer in respect of any claims, costs and expenses arising out of any libellous matter or any infringement of copyright, patent, design or of any other proprietary or personal rights contained in any material printed for the customer.

(c) The customer shall indemnify the printer against any claim by any party resulting from the code or symbol not reading or not reading correctly for any reason, except to the extent that such claim arises from any failure of the printer to comply with paragraph (a) above which is not attributable to error falling within the tolerances generally accepted in the trade in relation to printing of this sort.
• Title   The delivered/collected goods shall remain the property of John Brailsford Print (Yorkshire) Ltd until paid for in full regardless of whose possession they are in and in the case of the customer’s failure to collect, the invoiced amount shall be liable from the date of invoice.
• Additional Terms & Conditions for Internet Customers   Our website ordering facility must be considered as merely inviting the buyer to make a legal offer of purchase (an invitation to treat) which John Brailsford Print (Yorkshire) Ltd may or may not choose to accept.

The contract for the sale of goods can only be considered by the customer as formed when John Brailsford Print (Yorkshire) Ltd send a non-automated notification (like an e-mailed job proof for instance) that such order has been accepted. However, John Brailsford Print (Yorkshire) Ltd accepts no liability whatsoever should the customer not receive this acknowledgement. It is suggested that should the customer not have received the acknowledgement within 24 hours from ordering the goods then such reminder be sent to sales@brailsfordprinters.co.uk or contact customer services on 01709 523980.
