6.3 Variations will be charged for on the basis of SPR’s quotation, and will be detailed in writing, and shown as variations on SPR’s invoice. The Buyer shall be required to respond to any variation submitted by SPR within ten (10) working days. Failure to do so will entitle SPR to add the cost of the variation to the Price. Payment for all variations must be made in full at the time of their completion.
6.4 At SPR’s sole discretion a non-refundable deposit may be required.
6.5 Time for payment for the Goods being of the essence, the Price will be payable by the Buyer on the date/s determined by SPR, which may be:

8.2 If any of the Goods are damaged or destroyed following Delivery but prior to ownership passing to the Buyer, SPR is entitled to receive all insurance proceeds payable for the Goods. The production of these terms and conditions by SPR is sufficient evidence of SPR’s rights to receive the insurance proceeds without the need for any person dealing with SPR to make further enquiries.
