This clause overrides any other document or agreement to the contrary. 

3.5 Payments made by credit card may be subject to a surcharge. 

4.1 Where the Purchaser is in default in the performance of any of its obligations under these Conditions and the Goods have not been supplied under a Consumer Contract, Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  may refuse, without prejudice to any other rights it may have under these Conditions or at law, to supply or deliver further Goods to the Purchaser until such time as the Purchaser has remedied that default, and / or may choose to terminate the contract. 

4.2 If the Goods have been supplied by Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  under a Consumer Contract and the Purchaser is in default in the performance of any of its material obligations under these Conditions, Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  may refuse to deliver further Goods until such time as the Purchaser has remedied that default and where:

The Purchaser consents to Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  lodging a caveat to note its interest.

5.4 In the case of goods or components not of Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd’s manufacture, Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  shall give the Purchaser, and use its best endeavours to enforce at the cost of and for the benefit of the Purchaser, such warranties and guarantees as Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd has obtained from its suppliers. 

5.5 Where Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  is required to order special material or qualities for which a supplier of Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  requests minimum order quantities, the Purchaser may be requested to accept an increase of the minimum quantity required to be ordered by Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  to fulfil the order and if so requested the Purchaser shall be obliged to accept and pay for such increase. The price for the additional product shall be determined according to the unit price for the products included in the order. 

5.6 If Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  is required to process the Purchaser’s goods or materials then Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  does not give any warranty or assurance that materials supplied by the Purchaser are suitable for such processing.

or
d. Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  considers it necessary or desirable to do so for any reason at all. 

5.8 Subject to the rights of Consumers set out in clause 11.2, unless the Goods have been supplied to the Purchaser by Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  under a Consumer Contract, the Purchaser agrees that it does not rely on the skill or judgement of Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  in relation to the suitability of any of the Goods for a particular purpose unless it has indicated that purpose in writing to Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  and Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  has acknowledged in writing that the Goods will be fit for the particular purpose.

e. the unloading of Goods at a Drop Spot is the Purchaser’s responsibility at its own cost and risk but Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  or its transport contractor may, without liability to the Purchaser, unload the Goods at the Drop Spot if the Purchaser requests Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  to do so or is absent from the Drop Spot at the time Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  or its transport contractor wishes to unload and, subject to the rights of Consumers set out in clause 11.2, the Purchaser releases and forever discharges Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  and its transport contractor from and against any claim, cause of action or liability arising out of the unloading of Goods at the Drop Spot; 
f. where the Purchaser attends Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd ’s premises to acquire the Goods, Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  may, in its absolute discretion:

Where Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  delivers by instalments each instalment shall be deemed to be sold to the Purchaser under a separate contract.

6.7 Where Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  or its transport contractor enters the Purchaser’s premises or the premises of a third party nominated by the Purchaser as a delivery point, the Purchaser: 

a. releases Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  from any claim the Purchaser may at any time have had against Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  but for this release in respect of damage occasioned to the Purchaser’s premises or injury to persons arising out of the delivery by Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd  or its transport contractor of Goods to such premises; and

Prior to title in the Goods passing to the Purchaser, the Purchaser: 

a. must hold the Goods as bailee and fiduciary agent of Advanced Roof Systems Pty Ltd;
