1. Our Contract
These Terms and Conditions govern the supply of goods sold by Romec Ltd ("Romec ") to the Customer named on the order form provided to Romec. Together with the completed order form, these Terms and Conditions constitute the entire and only agreement between the parties in relation thereto.

These terms and conditions do not apply to export transactions, to which separate terms and conditions of sale apply.

2. Price and Payment
2.1 The price payable for goods as amended from time to time is indicated on the Romec manufacturing web site.

The Customer shall send by way of e mail communication a list of the goods required to Romec who shall respond with a quotation within 5 days setting out the actual price payable for the goods requested. This quotation is valid for 30 days.

2.2 If the quotation is acceptable to the Customer the Customer shall place an order within 30 days of the date of the quotation with Romec.
