No contract for the purchase of Goods and/or Services will come into existence until a Purchase Order has been reviewed and accepted by NutriciaStore and NutriciaStore has notified the Customer of such acceptance. NutriciaStore may decline a Purchase Order where there are reasonable grounds for doing so, for example, the Goods and/or Services are no longer available or if there is an error in the Price List or the description of the Goods and/or Services listed on the Site.

NutriciaStore may charge the Customer an administration fee to cover its costs of processing and declining the order.
- The Customer may cancel a Purchase Order if NutriciaStore is in breach of these Terms and Conditions. Otherwise, once NutriciaStore has accepted a Purchase Order, it cannot be cancelled by the Customer without NutriciaStore’s prior written approval. Any modifications or variations to a Purchase Order by the Customer will not be accepted unless notified to NutriciaStore on the same day of purchase. NutriciaStore will endeavour to update these changes if the order has not been dispatched, if however, the order is already in progress, the order will not be able to be changed. The customer may refuse the delivery at time of receipt and return to NutriciaStore for a refund (delivery charges may still apply) (refer clause 8).

- the Customer will pay the undisputed portion of the invoice in accordance with clause 7.1, and notify NutriciaStore in writing (within five Business Days of receipt of the invoice) of the reasons for disputing the remainder of the invoice; and
- if it is resolved that some or all of the amount in dispute should have been paid at the time first invoiced, then the Customer will pay interest on that amount in accordance with clause 7.7.1 from the original due date until the amount (including accrued interest) is paid in full.
- Where any approved credit limit is exceeded, or no credit limit exists, NutriciaStore may (at its option) require the Customer to pay for the Goods and/or Services within a shorter time frame or in advance of provision of the Goods and/or Services by giving notice to the Customer accordingly. The Customer is not relieved from its obligation to pay as a result of the credit limit being exceeded or no credit limit existing.

- If payment in full is not received by NutriciaStore by the due date:

- NutriciaStore may (without any prior notice or demand) set-off or deduct any amounts owing (or to become owing) by NutriciaStore to the Customer in order to reduce any payment due (or to become due) by the Customer to NutriciaStore.
7. Delivery of Goods and Performance of Services
- Goods can only be delivered to New Zealand addresses.
- Unless otherwise agreed in writing:
- Subject to clause 7.1, NutriciaStore is responsible for arranging delivery of the Goods; and
- the Goods will be delivered to the Delivery Address.
- Delivery will be completed by the Goods being left, or made available to the Customer, at the Delivery Address. The Customer will be responsible for:
- payment of all charges to enable delivery of the Goods; and
- accepting the Goods at the Delivery Address, promptly on arrival of the Goods at the Delivery Address. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law and subject to the Customer's Non-Excludable Rights, NutriciaStore will not be responsible for any loss or damage to Goods caused by the Customer providing an incorrect Delivery Address or for non-compliance with the Customer's delivery instructions (for example, leaving a product outside or unattended).
- If NutriciaStore is unable to deliver the Goods to the Customer the relevant delivery partner will leave notification of the location of the parcel for the customer to collect within a timeframe specified on the notification. If the Goods are not collected within this time, the Goods will be returned to the originating depot and a refund will be processed at the purchase price of the Goods, less NutriciaStore's freight and handling costs for the failed delivery/ies. If the Customer requires the item, a new order must be placed for the replacement item. If the Customer fails or refuses to take or accept delivery or to unload the Goods promptly on their arrival, then the Goods shall be deemed to be delivered when NutriciaStore was willing to deliver the Goods, NutriciaStore will be entitled to invoice the Customer for full payment and the Customer shall be liable for all reasonable costs incurred by NutriciaStore, including reasonable storage, freight and handling costs, until the Customer accepts delivery of the Goods (and unloads them).
- Subject to NutriciaStore accepting a Purchase Order, Goods will normally be shipped from NutriciaStore's warehouse by the end of the next Business Day of receipt of that Purchase Order, unless otherwise noted in the description of the Goods on the Site. However, any delivery times displayed or otherwise notified to the Customer are estimates only, based on the information provided by NutriciaStore's shipping company. NutriciaStore will use reasonable commercial endeavours to meet any agreed Delivery Date or Service Completion Date and, if there is a delay in shipping the Goods or performance of the Services ordered by the Customer, NutriciaStore may contact the Customer to advise of the reason for the delay. If this occurs, the Customer may cancel their Purchase Order at any time prior to when the Goods are shipped. Where possible, if extended delays are expected due to holiday periods, weather conditions or extenuating circumstances, NutriciaStore will place an “important notice” on the website to inform Customers. Where there are significant delays in delivery, the Customer may be offered a refund if the Goods have not arrived more than 10 days after the original order date.
- For the avoidance of doubt, the time agreed for delivery of Goods or performance of Services is not an essential term of any contract, unless expressly acknowledged and agreed to be by NutriciaStore in the applicable Purchase Order.
- Product Shelf life will be supplied within a reasonable usage time vs the expiry of the product and this may vary depending on the usage guidelines for each product.

- the Good must be returned within 20 days of the date of approval of the return claim by NutriciaStore;

- Subject to our obligations under the CGA, any claim that the Good is defective, damaged, faulty, short delivered or not supplied in accordance with these Terms and Conditions and/or the relevant Purchase Order must be made at the time of delivery or in writing to us within five (5) working days after delivery of the Goods to you. If you fail to make a return claim within this timeframe then, to the extent permitted by law, the Goods will be deemed to have been accepted by you and we will not be liable (and you waive any rights to seek remedies) in relation to any later claim for any damage to, discrepancy or other non-compliance of the Goods.
- Any claim for Goods damaged in transit must be accompanied by a photograph of the affected Goods. If you fail to provide photographic evidence of the damaged Goods, to the extent permitted by law, the Goods will be deemed to have been accepted by you and we will not be liable (and you waive any rights to seek remedies) in relation to any later claim for any damage to the Goods.

- NutriciaStore may apply any payments received from or on behalf of the Customer in reduction of the Amount Owing in such order and manner as NutriciaStore thinks fit (despite any direction to the contrary and whether before or after the occurrence of an Event of Default).
- If the Customer resells or uses any Goods before ownership of the Goods has passed to the Customer, the proceeds of such sale or use will be received and held by the Customer (in whatever form) in trust for both the Customer and NutriciaStore. NutriciaStore’s interest as beneficiary under that trust will be that portion of the proceeds that does not exceed the Amount Owing. The balance of the proceeds (if any) will be the Customer’s beneficial interest under that trust.
- NutriciaStore may bring an action for Amounts Owing in relation to Goods sold even where ownership of the Goods may not have passed to the Customer.
