The price of the products (which includes VAT) will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. We take reasonable care to ensure that the price of the products advised to you is correct. However please see clause 14.3 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of the products.
14.2. We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT.

If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the products, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid for the products in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
14.3. What happens if we got the price wrong.

It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, the products may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the products’ correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the products’ correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order. If we accept and process your order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may end the contract, refund you any sums you have paid and require the return of anything we have delivered to you.

If you do not make any payment to us by the due date we may charge interest to you on the overdue amount at the rate of 4% a year above the base lending rate of Royal Bank of Scotland from time to time. This interest shall accrue on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You must pay us interest together with any overdue amount.
14.7. What to do if you think an invoice is wrong.

If we have invoiced you in respect of any order and you think an invoice is wrong please contact us promptly to let us know. You will not have to pay any interest until the dispute is resolved. Once the dispute is resolved we will charge you interest on correctly invoiced sums from the original due date.

18.5. Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later.

If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date.
