WHOLESALING AND RESELLING
We do not provide Goods at wholesale prices or for wholesale purposes.

If you resell our Goods, any money received in exchange for the Goods must be held on trust for our benefit and accounted to us immediately. Any sum received by you in selling our Goods may be sought by us as a liquidated damage.

Without limiting any other clause in these Terms and Conditions, we will not, without Your consent, use Your Personal Information in a way that breaches the National Privacy Principles set out in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).

starting from the date of receipt (in cleared funds) of the total price of the Goods.

You will accept Delivery of the Goods in accordance with any offer or in any other manner determined reasonable in the circumstances by us.
If You fail to accept Delivery of the Goods, then You will be liable for any costs or damages incurred by us on account of Your failure to accept Delivery.
The risk and all attached liability for damage of the Goods passes to You at the point of departure of the Goods from the Originating Location even if we deliver the Goods.
TERMINATION
Termination by Us
We may terminate any transaction arising out of the provision of our Goods to You immediately upon notice to You in any form at any time.
We may cancel any orders placed for Goods listed at the incorrect price upon notice to You in any form at any time.
Our only liability to You upon termination by us is a refund of the amount of payments made for the supply of the Goods which we have yet to Deliver. Monies advanced will be refunded using the same method by which payment was received.
Termination by You
If You terminate a transaction with us, You are still liable to pay the full amount that would have been payable upon completion of the transaction provided that we have commenced any part of the process involved in completing the transaction agreed, including, without limitation, any administrative function.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND REFUNDS
If You have a genuine grievance with any Goods provided by us You should notify us in writing within seven days after Delivery of the Goods. We will then consider the merits of Your claim and at our sole discretion either:
(a) repair or replace the Goods;
(b) provide a partial refund, being 50% of the cost of the Goods. A partial refund of the cost of Goods may be considered only in circumstances when the Goods are returned in exactly the same condition as when they were delivered; or
(c) decline to provide any remedy contained in this clause.
We expressly disclaim, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all express, implied and statutory warranties. Where any statutory terms may not be excluded, liability in respect of them is limited to no greater than the cost of replacement of the Goods subject to the statutory warranty.
Any request for a return of Goods needs to be made within a reasonable time. We will require proof of purchase of the Goods before any refunds will be made.
DISPUTE RESOLUTION
If You consider there is a legitimate dispute between us and You (the Parties) as to any part of a transaction governed by these Terms and Conditions, You must first go through the following dispute resolution process before the commencement of any arbitration or other legal proceedings.
You must give us notice in writing setting out full details of the dispute (Dispute Notice).
To resolve the dispute:
(a) for a period of 14 days after a Dispute Notice is given (or a longer period if the Parties agree in writing), the Parties will engage in negotiations and discussions in order to seek to resolve the dispute.
(b) the Parties must participate in the negotiations and discussions referred to in the above clause in good faith and will use all reasonable endeavours to resolve the dispute. The Parties may also appoint third party consultants to assist in the resolution of the dispute.
(c) if the Parties cannot resolve the dispute within the period set out in clause 39(a), You may request that the dispute be referred to mediation upon providing a written undertaking to bear all costs involved in the mediation.
(d) if You do not undertake to pay all costs involved in the mediation, then we are not obliged to attend any mediation.
If the Parties to the dispute cannot agree on a mediator within seven days after a request under clause 39(c), upon the request of either Party the president of the Queensland Law Society Inc or that president’s nominee may appoint a mediator.
Unless agreed by the mediator and Parties, the mediation must be held within 15 days of a request for the dispute to be referred to mediation being made under clause 39(c) and must occur on the Sunshine Coast unless otherwise agreed.
If a Party to a dispute fails to comply with any aspect of the above clauses, the other Party does not have to comply with those clauses in relation to the dispute.
Nothing in these Terms and Conditions obliges Mokosozo to attempt the dispute resolution process outlined above before it can take action against You.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY / CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
If You provide us with specifications, designs, plans, descriptions, prototypes, samples, tooling or components for or in relation to the Goods or their manufacture or delivery or to enable us to provide the Goods to You, You agree to indemnify us against any claims, actions, demands, costs, damages, or expenses arising from or incurred by reason of any infringement of any Intellectual Property or confidential information arising from the supply or use of such specifications, designs, plans, descriptions, prototypes, samples, tooling or components. We are not required to defend any action, claim, or demand or to contest any costs or expenses covered by this indemnity before it is entitled to invoke this indemnity.
Any Intellectual Property vested in the Goods remains our property and only a limited licence to use the Intellectual Property in the most limited extent necessary to enjoy the benefit from the Goods for which they are designed is included in the provision of the Goods irrespective of whether payment for any Goods includes an amount for design or production.
All documents, information systems and know how provided to or disclosed to You by us must be treated as confidential by You and You warrant not to lend, copy, use, dispose of or sell such documents, information systems or know-how without our prior written consent.
ILLEGALITY AND SEVERABILITY
The provisions of these Terms and Conditions will so far as possible be construed so as not to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect but if any provision on its true interpretation is illegal, invalid or unenforceable:
(a) that provision will so far as possible be read down to the extent that it may be necessary to ensure that it is not illegal, invalid or unenforceable and as may be reasonable in all the circumstances so as to give it a valid operation of a partial character; or
(b) if the provision or part of it cannot be read down the provision or part will be deemed to be void and severable and the remaining provisions of this instrument will not in any way be affected or impaired.
JURISDICTION
You irrevocably acknowledge that despite:
(a) your business or residential location;
(b) the delivery place of the Goods; or
(c) any other geographical indicia,
any transaction entered into between You and us is entered into under the laws of Queensland.
Any dispute that is not resolved in accordance with the process outlined in clauses 37-43 must be resolved in a court of competent jurisdiction in Queensland.
These Terms and Conditions or any Contract arising from them will not be interpreted, construed or applied adversely to us by reason of their having been drafted by or on our behalf.
