3.2.1 the amount owing by Customer to Art Marketing under all contracts between the Parties (including under this Contract) exceeds any credit limit for credit extended by Art Marketing to Customer or if any required payment due from Customer to Art Marketing has not yet been made; or
3.2.2 a Product in the Order is out of stock or no longer available for purchase. Where a Product is out of stock rather than no longer available, the Product shall automatically be put on back order and delivery to Customer delayed without further notice and delivered at a time when the Product is in stock and available for delivery. Contracts for Products which are no longer available shall be cancelled.
3.3 Art Marketing shall use its reasonable endeavours to perform its obligations within any timescales set out in this Contract, but time for performance shall not be of the essence. Any timeframe for delivery in a previous contract shall not be an indication of the timeframe for delivery in this Contract.
3.4 Unless otherwise agreed in writing by Art Marketing, delivery shall be to the delivery address stipulated by Customer in its Customer Account; unless a different address for delivery is specified in the Order Acknowledgment, in which case delivery shall be to the delivery address stipulated in the Order Acknowledgment.
3.5 Customer shall arrange for delivery of the Products sufficiently in advance of its required use of the Products to allow a buffer time for later than expected delivery and so as to avoid an knock-on costs, expenses, liabilities, losses or damages.

3.7 Packaging shall be in accordance with Art Marketing’s customary practices or as used by a courier company which may deliver Products to Customer on behalf of Art Marketing. If Customer would like a special request for packaging, this is subject to Art Marketing’s prior written agreement and Customer shall pay the extra cost.
3.8 Partial delivery or performance shall be permitted. Art Marketing may deliver and provide the Products in instalments. Unless the Parties otherwise agree in writing, Art Marketing may invoice Customer for each instalment.
3.9 Delay, default or non-delivery of any instalment by Art Marketing shall not entitle Customer to cancel or terminate, and shall not affect, the remainder of this Contract.
3.10 Customer shall ensure that it is ready for safe receipt of the Products without undue delay.
3.11 Subject to Clause 3.13, where Art Marketing (or a third party courier company on behalf of Art Marketing) delivers the Products to Customer’s premises, Art Marketing (or a third party courier company on behalf of Art Marketing) shall deliver to the nearest entrance to the delivery address and at ground floor only. It is Customer’s responsibility to get the Products from that point to any other part of the delivery address. Customer shall provide or procure the provision of the delivery vehicle with reasonable access to park and deliver, or give Art Marketing sufficient notice for reasonable arrangements for making deliveries to Customer to be made.
3.12 Subject to Clause 3.13, Customer may be required to sign a delivery note and other documentation upon receipt of the Products.

3.13 Customer shall check the size, dimensions and quantity and inform Art Marketing in writing with five Business Days of delivery of any non-conformance with the Contract.
3.14 If Customer fails to inspect the Products on delivery, Customer shall sign the delivery note for the Products as “unchecked” and specifically note this on the delivery note. Customer shall be deemed to have inspected and accepted the Products as delivered in good, working order if the delivery note is signed without reference to the Products being accepted as “unchecked”.
3.15 All risk in the Products shall pass to Customer upon delivery, provided that where delivery is delayed due to breach by Customer of its obligations under this Contract risk shall pass at the date when delivery would have occurred but for that breach.
3.16 Customer shall keep the Products fully insured on Art Marketing's behalf with a reputable insurance company to the reasonable satisfaction of Art Marketing for their full price against all risks of loss or damage from the time when the risk passes to Customer until property passes in accordance with Clause 4. On request, Customer shall produce the policy of insurance to Art Marketing. If the Products are lost, damaged or destroyed, Customer shall hold the proceeds of insurance for and to the order of Art Marketing pending Payment.
3.17 If delivery of the Products is delayed or obstructed through Customer's default or breach of this Contract or if Customer unreasonably declines or delays in accepting or taking delivery or receipt of the Products, then (subject to Clause 7) Art Marketing shall not have any Liability as a result and Art Marketing may (without prejudice to any other right or remedy available to it) do all or any of the following:
3.17.1 sell the Products for Art Marketing's account;
3.17.2 cancel this Contract as regards any Products that remain to be delivered or performed; and
3.17.3 charge a reasonable storage fee for the Products.
3.18 Where delivery is not to the UK, Customer shall be responsible for complying with all applicable laws, regulations and codes of practice governing the importation and use of the Products in the destination country.

("Payment").

4.3 Customer may resell the Products before Payment solely on the following conditions:
4.3.1 any sale shall be effected in the ordinary course of Customer's business at full market value;
4.3.2 any such sale shall be a sale of Art Marketing's property on Customer's own behalf and Customer shall deal as principal (not agent) when making such a sale;
4.3.3 Customer shall keep the proceeds of sale separate from any money or property of Customer or third parties; and
4.3.4 Customer shall still be responsible for paying to the full value of the Payment. If Art Marketing requires, Customer shall authorise and direct such third party buyer to pay to Art Marketing a like part of the sum due to Customer in respect of the Products sold and assign to Art Marketing such part of the debt owed to Customer by the third party.
4.4 Art Marketing may at any time until title passes under this Clause 4 without notice recover possession of the Products which are the property of Art Marketing. Art Marketing may also require Customer at Customer’s cost, within three days of Art Marketing’s request, to deliver up to Art Marketing or make available to Art Marketing for collection from a single accessible collection point as Art Marketing requires all Products which are the property of Art Marketing. Customer hereby grants to Art Marketing for Art Marketing and its agents, staff, officers, employees and contractors an irrevocable licence to enter for that purpose any premises then occupied by or in the ownership or possession of Customer or Customer’s customer. Customer shall indemnify Art Marketing against all claims, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses so arising in exercising its rights under this Clause 4.4.
