5.The Purchaser should have the Goods with them at the time of notifying the Company in accordance with clause 7.3, as the Company will require specific information from the Goods to be provided to it so that it can match it with its records. Without the bottle information the Company will be unable to refund or replace the Goods.

Any account of monies by the Company in accordance with the terms of this clause 8 received by the Company shall not discharge the Purchaser’s liability to pay the price for the Goods plus any interest in accordance but shall be set off against such liability.

5.The Purchaser may resell the Goods before ownership and title has passed to it solely on the following conditions:

2.The Company shall not be liable for a breach of the warranty in clause 10.1 if:
