» Terms and Conditions

Ink2Cash shall be referred to in these Terms and Conditions as "we", "our" or "us" and the supplier or proposed supplier of cartridges as "the Account Holder", or "you". These Terms and Conditions constitute the entire understanding between the parties for the supply of these items to Ink2Cash.

Prices

The price paid for an item is the price shown on our web site price list at the time of processing of the item, not the time that the items were posted.

Different prices are offered for 'original' cartridges, than for compatible or remanufactured cartridges. To qualify as 'original', the cartridge must have the original brand label of the printer manufacturer intact (no holes, tears, or clear attempts to remove), and must not have been refilled or reused. Any cartridge not identified as 'original' will be identified as 'compatible' if the model of the cartridge can be ascertained.

Damaged cartridges have a value of zero. Cartridges may be regarded as damaged if they fail an electrical test, have cases that are not intact, or have visible signs of damage to the print head.

Prices are normally updated in the first week of each month, though we reserve the right to change them without notice.

Acceptance

Please note that we do not accept any items except those listed explicitly on our price list.

Items not accepted include, but are not limited to:

We can provide information to you for routes by which such non-accepted items can be disposed of in a responsible manner, though such services are not guaranteed to be free of charge.

Passing of Title

We shall assume full title to all items upon receipt. Items sent cannot be returned. We reserve the right to refuse receipt of consignments.

VAT-Registered Account Holders

If the Account Holder is registered for VAT, then this fact must be made clear when opening the account. The Account Holder must send an appropriate and valid VAT invoice upon each issue of payment, and payment will not be issued until such time as this has been done. Prices shown on our price list are net of VAT.

Settlement of Accounts

Settlement of accounts is monthly payment by BACS into the bank account of the Account Holder. The Account Holder is responsible for giving us accurate details for payment: bank, branch name, account holder's name, account number, sort code.

Payments will only be issued for amounts outstanding of £10.00 or more. If the Account Holder's balance is below this at the point at which we issue payment, the balance will be rolled over to the next month.

The sending of the funds by us using the bank account details provided by the Account Holder will constitute full discharge of the outstanding balance.

Where an account does not trigger the minimum payout balance over a period of 6 months, the account balance shall be distributed equally among the charities on the Cartridges4Charity.co.uk project.

Processing of consignments

At busy times, it may take over 7 days from when we receive your items to process them. Account Holders will receive written confirmation (by email) of items as they are processed.

Postage and Collections

We do not take any responsibility for the loss or damage to items during transit. It is strongly recommended that items are packed carefully to avoid risk of damage. For high-value consignments, we recommend the use of recorded delivery services, at the discretion of the sender.

All items returned to us should be accompanied by the relevant account number, clearly indicated and legible, on the outside of the package. If items are not clearly marked with the account number, we cannot be held responsible for any problems with the processing of these items, and you may not receive credit for these items.

We have the right to refuse and return any shipment of product we do not wish to accept.

Non-Accepted Items

We can only reuse items sent to us that are undamaged and appear on our price list. For anything else, we will use reasonable means to dispose of them appropriately.

If an excess of items are sent that are not present on our price list, or are damaged, we reserve the right to deduct a per-item fee from the Account Holder's balance to recoup costs in postage, handling and disposal for such items.

If at any point we request that you stop using the service, you must take reasonable steps to prevent items from being sent. This would include contacting donors to whom the service has been promoted.

Disputes over quantities, models or value of items returned shall be investigated at our sole discretion, and our decision will be final.

Due to the volume of items returned, we are unable to return any items to the sender after having taken receipt of them.

Limitation of Liability

We offer no warranty or guarantee about the service, which may be withdrawn without notice. Our maximum liability to you, except as otherwise required by law, shall be the discharge of the outstanding balance of your account held with us, where that balance exceeds the minimum payment threshold.

Alterations to This Contract

This contract may be amended by us with 7 days' notice given to you by your registered email address. Should we agree to cancel your account, any further cartridges received using your unique account number will be treated as donations for the Cartridges4Charity.co.uk project.
