Freight Calculations

The freight calculation is an estimate only to assist users who are selling products to recover an estimate of their costs. Users can use the supplementary freight field in the inventory database to add any additional costs if the freight calculator will not provide sufficient coverage for example the costs of delivery of their product to the nearest freight hub.

Only pay freight as shown on your order it is part of the conditions of the use of this site that the seller can only charge freight as disclosed in the shopping cart checkout.

If a seller contacts you directly seeking prepayment of any charges to them before delivery you should not accept this and you should immediately report this matter to us.

It is a breach of the terms of service for a user to try to levy charges other than as disclosed in the shopping cart and only via the shopping cart and escrow system.

Sellers found to be asking for advance payments outside the Safetrade.Market escrow service will have their account immediately suspended.

Rates are based on the user selected provider rates ruling from time to time if you wish to alter the rate you must add your additional charge in the freight field for each product listed.

A 10% facilitation fee is applied to all freight calculations to cover account fees, emission taxes, fuel levies and remote area surcharges.

Freight calculation on bulk breaks for returns is a simple average estimate only for the sake of expediency and to facilitate dispute resolution no attempt has been made to allow for bulk discount weightings. By using this service you agree to this methodology for calculation of freight on returns is acceptable for the purposes of resolving amounts refundable in event of a dispute.

You must ensure that your product to be shipped does not contravene the freight providers’ restrictions on hazardous products. You should check these requirements before you list your product for sale. Many of these rules exist because of Government legislative requirements and you could face prosecution or claims for damages if you fail to comply with them.

Misquoting the weight or dimensions of products will not be tolerated. Your account will be charged with any overweight or oversized charges from misquoting the weight or dimensions of goods and your account will be suspended.

Pickup Option

If a user has set the freight option for pickup only for an item they wish to sell no freight will be calculated and an address for collection of the goods will be displayed that has been supplied by the user for the listed product.

If a user chooses to buy a product that has been set with a pickup option the dispute resolution service will be curtailed and if the goods are not fit for purpose the user will need to use the traditional retail method of return of goods under warranty for the jurisdiction concerned which is outside the scope of this trading platform and entirely at the users risk.

Insurance

We would encourage you to take insurance for delivery for products that are to be physically sent to you.

We also encourage you to take out insurance if your trading activities are substantial to protect against cyber-attacks and fraud and to cover you for product liability and or professional indemnity. The online service does not cover these types of insurances you will need to arrange them directly with your insurer yourself.

Transactional Taxes (Sales Tax, VAT & GST)

Each user is responsible for their own transaction taxes levied in their country of origin. If Armorlog is required to remit taxes under lawful instruction from taxation authorities you the user agree that this will occur and it is only on the basis of a withholding remittance and the ultimate obligation for taxation resides with you the user and is a matter between you and your respective taxation authorities.

Customs Excise, Taxes & Duties

The user dispatching the product or service is responsible for all customs, duties & taxes in the Country of dispatch if any of apply.

If you want someone to transact on your behalf the correct manner to do this is to establish a separate account with an appropriately drafted contract drafted by an appropriately licensed legal practitioner to protect your interests.

Generally you should avoid attending premises that are not a normal place of business and you should be aware that even retail shops & business premises can be a front for people of dubious character seeking to defraud or intimidate you. If you wish to make an onsite physical inspection of goods before you buy them or you have chosen products that have only a pickup option for delivery, you should satisfy your-self that it is a safe environment to attend, if you do decide to attend it should be during daylight hours only and you should ensure you have someone accompany you particularly if not in a normally accepted place of business or in an isolated location.
