The whole of the Agreement between Clearwater Lakes & Ponds Pty Ltd (ACN 135 133 925) as the trustee for the Seals Family Trust trading as Love My Dam (“Love My Dam”) and the Applicant referred to in the Credit Application or the Purchaser of the goods and services (“Customer”) are those set out in these Terms and Conditions as amended from time to time and those, if any, which are implied and which cannot be excluded by law (“Terms”). Any other contractual terms of the Customer (whether upon the Customer’s order or elsewhere) which are contrary to or inconsistent with these Terms shall not apply nor shall they constitute a counter-offer. By placing an order for all or a portion of the goods, materials and/or parts and/or labour and/or services supplied by Love My Dam under these Terms (“Goods and Services”), the Customer shall be deemed to have accepted these Terms and to have agreed that they shall apply to the exclusion of all other written agreements with Love My Dam.

2 Credit Terms

2.1 Payment is due on or prior to 30 days from the date of invoice rendered in respect of the supply of the Goods and Services unless otherwise stated in writing by Love My Dam.

A quotation is subject to variation with notice to the Customer prior to its acceptance of the quotation.
