6.2 After placing an order, you will receive an e-mail from Valu PC Ltd acknowledging that Valu PC Ltd has received your order and confirming the price, delivery charge and specification of the Product order. Please note that this does not mean that your order has been accepted by Valu PC Ltd. Your order constitutes an offer from you to Valu PC Ltd to buy a Product subject to this Agreement.

Valu PC Ltd will confirm its acceptance of your order by sending you an e-mail that confirms that your order has been accepted (which e-mail is called the “Purchase Confirmation”) and not otherwise.

7. Description of Products
7.1 You are solely responsible for using your skill and judgement to choose the Products (and their specification) which are suitable for your purposes and needs and ensuring that they are compatible with any other products or systems you have.
7.2 The Products supplied are manufactured by a third party manufacturer and resold by Valu PC Ltd in accordance with the manufacturer’s standard specifications, as these are revised by the manufacturer from time to time. Valu PC Ltd accordingly reserves the right to supply Products with a different specification to that ordered where the ordered Product is unavailable to Valu PC Ltd provided that the supplied Product has equivalent functionality, performance and price to that ordered. If you exercise your right of cancellation in accordance with clause 9 in respect of any equivalent Product so supplied, Valu PC Ltd will bear the cost of returning the Product.
7.3 Valu PC Ltd will supply Products to you subject to, and in accordance with, this Agreement and the relevant Contract. The quantity, specifications and description of the Products is as set out in the Purchase Confirmation.
7.4 All samples, drawings, descriptive matter, specifications and advertising issued or made available by Valu PC Ltd and any descriptions or illustrations contained in Valu PC Ltd’s catalogues, brochures or on the Website are issued or published for the sole purpose of giving an approximate idea of the Products described in them. They do not form part of the Contract and this is not a sale by sample.
8. Valu PC Ltd’s Status
8.1 Please note that in some cases, Valu PC Ltd may accept orders as agent on behalf of third party resellers. The resulting legal contract in such cases is between you and the relevant third party reseller (and not between you and Valu PC Ltd), and is subject to the terms and conditions of the relevant third party reseller. The third party reseller will advise you of their terms and conditions directly. Valu PC Ltd recommends that you read any third party reseller’s terms and conditions carefully before proceeding with an order.
8.2 Valu PC Ltd will notify you if and when Valu PC Ltd accepts orders as an agent on behalf of a third party reseller. Where Valu PC Ltd acts as an agent, Valu PC Ltd may disclose your information which relates to an order to the relevant third party reseller in connection with the order. In such circumstances, you consent and agree to such information (which may include your personal information) being shared with the third party reseller.
8.3 Valu PC Ltd may also provide links on this Website to the websites of other companies and persons, whether affiliated with Valu PC Ltd or not. Valu PC Ltd does not give any undertaking or assurance whatsoever that any products or services purchased from third party resellers through this Website, or from companies or persons to whose website Valu PC Ltd has provided a link on this Website, will comply with the terms of any third party reseller’s contract, will be fit for purpose, of merchantable quality and/or match its description. Any such warranties and any other terms, conditions and/or warranties expressed or implied by common law, statute or otherwise are expressly disclaimed and excluded by Valu PC Ltd.
8.4 The disclaimer in clause 8.3 does not affect your statutory rights against the third party reseller.
9. Consumer right of cancellation
9.1 If you are ordering Products as a Consumer, you have a right to cancel your order in accordance with this clause 9.
9.2 Subject to clauses 9.3, 9.4 and 9.5, if you are a Consumer you may cancel the relevant Contract at any time within fourteen (14) days beginning on the day after you received the Products (the “cooling off period”) without giving us any reason for the cancellation. If you intend to cancel a Contract in accordance with this clause 9.2 you must inform Valu PC Ltd of your decision to cancel that Contract by an unequivocal statement. You may do so by sending an e-mail attaching your completed Model Cancellation Form to returns@valupc.ie, by posting a letter of your completed Model Cancellation Form to the Valu PC Ltd address provided at clause 2.2 above, or by completing and submitting the Model Cancellation Form online at https://www.valupc.ie. When contacting Valu PC Ltd to cancel you may use the Model Cancelation Form at the bottom of this page but it is not obligatory.
9.3 It is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cooling off period has expired, however Valu PC Ltd will require proof of this date to verify that any cancellation is within the given cooling off period.
9.4 You must, in any case, return the Product to Valu PC Ltd, at your sole risk and cost (except where provided in clause 7.2) in the same condition in which you received it, together with all relevant packaging, without undue delay and no later than 14 days from the day on which you informed Valu PC Ltd of your cancellation of the Contract in order that Valu PC Ltd can resell it. You shall return the Product to the Valu PC Ltd address provided at clause 2.2 above.
9.5 You must take reasonable care of the Products prior to returning them and are liable for any diminished value of the Products resulting from the handling of the Products beyond that necessary to establish their nature, characteristics and functioning.
9.6 If you cancel a Contract in compliance with clause 9.2, Valu PC Ltd will reimburse you in respect of most sums paid by you to Valu PC Ltd in accordance with Valu PC Ltd’s Returns Policy detailed in clause 18. Valu PC Ltd may withhold reimbursement until Valu PC Ltd has received the Products from you. Reimbursements will exclude a 2.9% credit card transaction fee we are charged by payment services when taking original order payment.
9.7 You do not have a right of cancellation pursuant to this clause 9 if:
(a) the relevant Products were made to your specifications or were clearly personalised or, by reason of their nature, cannot be returned or are liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly;
(b) the relevant Products are audio or video recordings, computer software or any other intangible digital product and were unsealed by you; and/or
(c) you are contracting or making an order for or on behalf of a business, company or other commercial entity.
9.8 Valu PC Ltd reserves the right to take action against you if the Product returned has, whilst in your possession or control, become unfit for resale or damaged or you have not returned the Product and all relevant packaging included in or with the Product when it was delivered to you.
10. Time is not of the essence
10.1 Any dates or times specified by Valu PC Ltd for procurement and/or delivery of the Products are an estimate only and time for supply of Products is not, and may not be made by notice, of the essence of this Agreement. A guide to Valu PC Ltd’s estimated procurement and delivery times is set out at www.valupc.ie
10.2 Valu PC Ltd will use reasonable efforts to supply Products pursuant to a Contract within the estimated date specified in the Purchase Confirmation or, if no date is specified, within a reasonable period which, if you are a Consumer (but not otherwise) will be no more than thirty (30) days from the date you submitted your order (unless otherwise agreed between you and Valu PC Ltd).
10.3 You are not, subject to clause 10.4, entitled to terminate a Contract by reason of the failure of Valu PC Ltd to supply Products by the estimated supply date and Valu PC Ltd is not liable to you for any losses whatever caused by such failure.
10.4 If you are a Consumer and the delivery date cannot be met, and the revised delivery date is more than thirty (30) days from the date of the Purchase Confirmation, you can cancel the Contract without charge and obtain a full refund if you notify Valu PC Ltd, within two (2) days of being informed of the new delivery date, that you are not happy with the revised delivery date.

13.2 Ownership of, and title to, Products only pass to you when Valu PC Ltd receives full payment of all sums due in respect of the Products, including delivery charges.

13.3 Until ownership of, and title to, the Products has passed to you, you will:
(a) hold the Products on a fiduciary basis as Valu PC Ltd’s bailee;

14.2 The price of any Products, unless a specific quote is given by Valu PC Ltd or an error is identified in the order acknowledgment or Purchase Confirmation, is as quoted in this Website from time to time, except in cases of obvious error. Valu PC Ltd reserves the right to increase its quoted prices for Products made to your specifications, with non-standard specifications or clearly personalised for you.
14.3 Any quotation is valid on its date of issue only and can be revoked by Valu PC Ltd at any time. Any quotation is given by Valu PC Ltd on the basis that no Contract comes into existence except in accordance with clause 6.
14.4 The prices for the Products include VAT but exclude delivery costs, which will be added to the total amount due and payable by you as set out in Valu PC Ltd’s Delivery Guide https://www.valupc.ie. You will be provided with the total cost before you finalise your purchase.

14.6 Prices and delivery charges are liable to change or variation at any time in accordance with clause 22, but changes will not affect orders in respect of which Valu PC Ltd has already sent you a Purchase Confirmation.
14.7 This Website contains a large number of Products and it is always possible that, despite Valu PC Ltd’s efforts, some of the Products listed on the Website may be incorrectly priced. If a Product’s correct price is higher than the price stated on Valu PC Ltd’s Website or quoted to you, Valu PC Ltd normally, at its discretion, either contacts you for instructions before dispatching the Product, or rejects your order and notifies you of such rejection.
14.8 Valu PC Ltd is under no obligation to provide the Product to you at the incorrect (lower) price, even after it has sent you a Purchase Confirmation, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mis-pricing.
15. Payment
15.1 You will pay Valu PC Ltd in euro (€) and in full the price (including delivery charges and VAT, if applicable) in consideration of the supply of the Products pursuant to this Agreement and a Contract (without any abatement, deduction, withholding, counterclaim or set-off). No payment is deemed to have been received until Valu PC Ltd has received cleared funds.
15.2 Payment for all Products must, subject to clause 15.3, be made by credit or debit card in advance via the Website or the Customer Call Centre.

15.4 Valu PC Ltd may, at its absolute discretion, approve or reject an application for a credit account and may, at its absolute discretion, terminate or suspend an approved credit account from time to time.
