Direct Import Goods are sold to you on a Ex Works basis, in accordance with the Incoterms® 2010 terms, whereby the risk of ownership and title in the goods passes to you on the date and time the Supplier places the Direct Import Goods at your disposal at the Supplier's premises or another named place not cleared for export and not loaded on any collecting vehicle.

You acknowledge that Cold 1 is not liable for any loss, damage, cost or expense that you incur as a result of your obligation to act as the importer of record for the Direct Import Goods.
If your Import Order arrives in Australia and the customs value is greater than the ‘low value import threshold’ (currently A$1,000, subject to change at any time), you may be required to lodge a Customs Import Declaration and pay the relevant Taxes. For further information visit www.customs.gov.au
For Australian customs purposes, any number of Import Orders delivered by Cold 1 to you may be considered as the one consignment in which case the total value of the number of Import Orders will be taken into account in assessing whether the low value import threshold has been reached.
12. Prices
Cold 1 will use its best endeavours to list Products with the most competitive prices. Cold 1 reserves the right to change prices for Products displayed on the Cold 1 web site at any time.
13. Reference to Recommended Retail Prices on our website
Our Products are sourced from within Australia and international markets and as such some may not be available for sale in Australia. This means that there may be no Australian Recommended Retail Price for some Products. Where we have been able to establish that a Product is for sale in Australia, we have used the Recommended Retail Price provided by a manufacturer, wholesaler or other supplier from which Cold 1 has sourced the product in Australia. In other cases, a Recommended Retail Price has been established by converting the Recommended Retail Price provided by the manufacturer, wholesaler or other supplier from which Cold 1 has sourced the product in the market from which the goods were sourced into Australian dollars. The exchange rate used in conversion to Australian dollars is that which is applicable at the time the goods are first landed in Australia as published by our bank.
14. Vouchers
Each 'Cold 1 Voucher' is personal to the User receiving it, is not transferable, has no monetary value and under no circumstances can it be converted into currency. Each 'Cold 1 Voucher' has an expiry date which cannot be modified.
The use of a 'Cold 1 Voucher' requires the total value of the order (excluding shipping and handling costs) to be higher than the monetary value of the discount given by the 'Cold 1 Voucher'. Some discount 'Cold 1 Voucher's may specify a minimum spend in order to be used. In this case, the monetary value of the order (excluding delivery costs) has to be higher than the minimum spend.
Under no circumstances can the value of a discount 'Cold 1 Voucher' be deducted from an order if that 'Cold 1 Voucher' is defective or out of date: no replacement 'Cold 1 Voucher's will be issued.
When an order is placed using a discount 'Cold 1 Voucher' and it contains a number of items, the value of the discount is spread over each item according to the pro-rated value of that item. Any refund of an item bought in such an order will be reduced by the value of discount attached to it.
We reserve the right to modify or amend at any time these guidelines and the methods through which benefits are earned. We reserve the right to disqualify you at any time from participation in our Cold 1 Referral Program and remove any existing Cold 1 Vouchers from your account.
15. Supply of Your Products
Subject to these Terms and Conditions, we will supply to you the Products indicated on your Order Confirmation. When your Order items have been dispatched, we will confirm shipment via the My Account My Orders section including a tracking number for each parcel.
16. Delivery of Your Products
As we source products from around the World delivery times will vary. We will use our best efforts to ensure your order arrives as soon as possible after the end of the sale. Delivery will be made via a number of partners and the estimated delivery times will be indicated within each specific sale according to the dispatch location. We use the best possible estimated dates given the information we have been provided by our suppliers and partners, however many factors are outside of our control and we cannot guarantee delivery within this time frame. Individual order status can be tracked in the My Account, My Orders section. We charge shipping and handling for each sale you purchase from unless otherwise stated on the website. Due to the nature of our business, we may consolidate orders where possible from more than one sale. For these orders shipping and handling charges will remain unaltered. Title and risk of loss to all products will pass to you on delivery unless otherwise specified in the Direct Import Goods Clause.
For the avoidance of doubt, In the event that there is any ambiguity relating to the passing of risk and title to the goods, risk and title to the goods will pass to you on the first attempt at delivery irrespective of whether it was successful or not.
Unless outlined in the Site Information or Item Page, delivery of bulky goods (for example larger furniture or TV’s and whitegoods) assumes ground floor front door delivery.

• Any law relating to occupational health and safety.
• Any directions or warnings that have been given about the goods or their location in the Site Information or Item Page; and

• You acknowledge that you inspect or remove goods at any location at your own risk.
• If we are unable to deliver an item or you fail to collect an item you have selected to collect within 14 days of a sale we may charge a storage fee in accordance with our normal rates.
18. Authority To Leave
By selecting No and clicking Accept on our Signature on Delivery option you authorise the courier to leave the goods unattended at the delivery address and you accept that once the courier has done so, the complete order has been received. Selection of Authority to Leave is deemed by our couriers as a signature from the recipient.

Risk and title to the goods transfers to you after the first attempt at delivery irrespective of whether it was successful or not.
