Prices & Payment
8. The price payable for the goods is the price displayed on the website. Any delivery charge is clearly displayed where applicable.
9. Prices are subject to change and SWANPLANT updates its websites on a daily basis, however we cannot accept orders based on earlier pricing that may have been cached on the web. In the event that a supplier fails to inform us of a price rise, we may need to pass this increase on to you, but will not accept your order unless you are aware of the price increase and are willing to pay it.
10. Payment for the goods is required prior to despatch of the goods.
Deliveries
11. Goods are despatched direct from the manufacturer, importer or wholesaler. SWANPLANT will advise you of the anticipated delivery date at the time of purchase.
12. Normal carrier deliveries take between 2 and 4 days excluding weekends. Certain goods such as generators may be delivered the next day if the order is placed early in the day and you will be advised of the cut-off time. Delivery of goods such as trailers or large generators may have to be planned according to availability and to the destination. You will be informed of the expected delivery date.
13. Carriers plan their activities at the last moment in order to achieve the quickest turn-around for the greatest number of items. It is therefore not possible to book a delivery time, although SWANPLANT will make every effort to arrange a date convenient for you.

In the case of larger goods requiring special transport or individual delivery, there will be a charge that may be a flat rate displayed on the relevant web page or that may need to be negotiated and you will be informed of this charge before placing the order.
