3 Your entitlement to delivery and possession

3.1 Subject to clause 3.2, you are entitled to delivery and possession of the Products once you have paid to HOUSESMILE the Minimum Payments, unless HOUSESMILE becomes entitled under this Agreement to inspect or repossess the Products (for example, where you breach the terms of this Agreement). If you fail to make any payment on the due date, HOUSESMILE reserves the right to increase the number of Minimum Payments required to be made by you before delivery.

Any time stated for delivery is an estimate only. HOUSESMILE will not be liable for any delay in delivery.

3.3 Possession is deemed to take place upon delivery of the Products to the address specified in the Order Form unless changed in accordance with this clause:

a. HOUSESMILE is only contracting to deliver the Products to that address and not any other address. If you have moved addresses and require that the Products be delivered elsewhere then you must contact us at least four weeks before the delivery date to change your delivery address. This is an optional service that HOUSESMILE is willing to provide to you but please note that in this situation, you may be liable to pay us a delivery charge which HOUSESMILE will only charge if HOUSESMILE’s costs of delivery increase as a result of your change of address and you have elected to take up this optional service.
b. If you do not elect the optional service referred to in clause 3.3(a), HOUSESMILE will assume your delivery address has not changed. If HOUSESMILE is unable to contact you because the information HOUSESMILE holds about you in its database is out of date, or you are not available or for any other reason HOUSESMILE is unable to make delivery to the delivery address provided, HOUSESMILE will hold the Products you have purchased (but for not longer than 6 months) until you contact HOUSESMILE and advise us of your current delivery address. Please note that holding Products for you is an optional service that we are willing to provide to you and we will charge a reasonable fee for doing so.
c. If you do not wish to take advantage of the optional services discussed in this clause 3.3, then you may collect the Products from our depot provided you give us at least 4 weeks’ notice of your intention to do so. There will be no additional charge to you for such arrangement in this event.
d. You must ensure that you are present to accept delivery of the Products during the delivery period. If a Product is damaged in transit, HOUSESMILE will arrange for a replacement Product to be provided. When you take delivery of the Products, you must examine the Products and satisfy yourself as to the condition of the Products before accepting delivery as HOUSESMILE will not be liable for damaged or missing Products (or part thereof) after delivery. All addresses need to be registered with NZ Post. Rural deliveries may need to be made to NZ Post and collected by you.

3.4 HOUSESMILE reserves the right to revise and/or discontinue any products described in its sales catalogue or shown on its website at any time without notice. By signing this Agreement, you agree and are aware that the Products specified in this Agreement may not be available from time to time, or may have limited availability. HOUSESMILE will make its best efforts to source the Products specified in this Agreement. However, if such products are not available at the time when you have made all the Minimum Payments, HOUSESMILE will not have any liability to you but HOUSESMILE may at its sole discretion substitute similar products (as to type, specifications and standard) (“Substitute Products”), and at the same price, for the Products specified in this Agreement and such Substitute Products will be subject to the terms of this Agreement as if the Substitute Products had originally been named as the Products in this Agreement. If HOUSESMILE is unable to provide you with Substitute Products, then it will refund to you all money you have paid under this Agreement within a reasonable period of time of it notifying you that it cannot provide Substitute Products.

4 The Products are at your risk: All responsibility for the Products and property in the Products passes to you when you take possession of the Products.

g. Any money we have to pay to an insurance company to ensure that the Products are insured pursuant to the terms of this Agreement;

This is an optional service that we are willing to provide you and as such, if you elect to take up this optional service, then you must pay us the amount we state is required prior to us agreeing to arrange for the pickup and repair inspection of the Products. The actual costs of repair and delivery of the Product back to you will be payable by you before we instruct our approved repair agency to repair the Products and again before we instruct our approved delivery agency to deliver the repaired Product to You.
