BESPOKE COMPUTER SYSTEM SALES

A bespoke music computer is defined as a PC system that has been configured specifically to the customers requirements for the purpose of playback of audio. Our terms of sale are different to our standard terms of sale for bespoke music computers due to the labour involved with creating this product to meet customers specific requirements, and the requirement to register software on behalf of a customer before delivery. This alteration to our standard terms and conditions does not apply to standard PC systems purchased, or music PC systems sold without specific customer configuration. Delivery of bespoke computer systems from date of order is usually between 12 and 18 days, but may from time to time be longer due to specific stock item delays or technical issues. An estimated delivery timescale for individual items is published on the vendor’s websites. The vendor reserves the right to part ship an order, but guarantees delivery of all goods relating to any one order within 30 days. If computer systems cannot be delivered within 30 days, a full refund will be offered. The vendor will use its best endeavors to comply with the date named for dispatch or delivery. The date given is intended as estimate only and is not to be the essence of the contract. Cancellation of orders placed for computer systems within 30 days are subject to a 25% cancellation charge. The Vendor cannot be held responsible for loss of business or income of any kind due to shipment delays. Whilst the vendor makes every effort to ensure that goods supplied correspond with the specification or description provided as the case may be, the vendor is not responsible for the minor variations in specification, in colour or other design features, and no such minor variation shall entitle the customer to rescind the contract, or shall be the subject of any claim against the vendor by the customer. Standard Rosi Systems Warranty 1st year – Parts and Labour on-site collect. If the vendor’s technicians verbally diagnose a hardware malfunction with a computer, it will be collected from the customer’s premises within 24 hours (office hours) whenever possible, and returned to the vendors workshops for repair. The vendor will replace any hardware component that is found to be defective at its own cost. Turnaround time is targeted at 5 to 7 days although this may be longer depending on the nature of the problem or the availability of replacement components. The vendor guarantees that an individual repair instance will take no longer than 30 days. The customer must make the computer available for collection by the vendor’s agent in its original box or other appropriate shock proof packaging. The vendor may refuse any goods returned that are insufficiently packaged for safe transit. The vendor cannot be held responsible for third party agents being unable to fulfil their obligations for the collection or return of goods. In the case of manufacturers who operate direct product support and returns procedures, the customer accepts an obligation to process their claim directly through the manufacturer. 2nd & 3rd years return to base (R.T.B.) Labour only: The customer must arrange for the goods to be returned to the vendor, or another location specified by the vendor. The vendor will only be responsible for the safekeeping and insurance of goods whilst in the possession of the vendor. The vendor is not liable to pay the cost of any components failing from 12 months after goods are delivered to the customer. The vendor will not charge any labour costs to replace or repair faulty components. If the component needs to be replaced for whatever reason, the customer will be advised of the fault and the cost of the replacement part, and will be given the option to go ahead with the repair. This is a hardware warranty only. If the goods are returned to the vendor and the fault is due to changes made after delivery to the software configuration the customer will be charged standard maintenance rates. The vendor uses its best endeavors to ensure that machines are thoroughly tested and set up for optimum performance before delivery, and the vendor is not responsible for machines not working correctly due to alterations made while in the care of the customer, or software/hardware installed after taking delivery of the goods. This is a hardware warranty only. Law – If any of these terms and conditions shall be found to be unlawful it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of the conditions. This contract is and shall be deemed to have been made in England and shall in all respects be governed by English Law. Your statutory rights are unaffected.

OTHER INFORMATION Under recent legislation, we are obliged to point out that you do not need to purchase an extended warranty at the same time that you purchase your goods. You are entitled to shop around, and we would actively encourage you to do this. This warranty is provided as an additional service to our customers, and we really do think it is worth the small amount of money it costs! This warranty is an exclusive Rosi Systems offer and is operated and financially backed by Rosi Systems Limited. The Financial Services Compensation scheme does not apply to this warranty and monies are not ring-fenced from Rosi Systems Limited. This warranty is not an insurance policy, and we suggest you also insure your goods against theft and damage.

On buying a product, you are protected by legislation such as the Sale of Goods Act 1979 (as amended). If the product is not, when sold, of satisfactory quality or fit for purpose, you have a right to claim for repair or replacement for up to 6 years (5 in Scotland). Within the first 6 months, the retailer must prove that the goods you bought met the necessary standards. After the first 6 months, it is up to you to prove that the product was faulty when supplied: this may involve you taking legal proceedings. Further information on consumer rights can be obtained from your local Trading Standards Services. Further guidance with regards to Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 can be found here. Although the Sale of Goods Act covers you in very specific circumstances should your equipment go wrong after purchase, it is not nearly as comprehensive as our extended warranty, and this warranty will remove the stress and hassle of making a claim beyond the manufactures standard warranty period.
