Given the ongoing 3rd Party Obligations and because KJC Coins cannot control delivery costs in the circumstances set out below:

(1)            the information supplied by You is not accurate, or

(3)            KJC Coins decides to change the shipping arrangements because of unsatisfactory security risks (see below), or

(4)            shipping arrangements are changed by KJC Coins for insurance purposes (see below); and

(b)            you are solely responsible for any such increase in the cost of the confirmed shipping costs.

12.10    Changed delivery arrangements if there is a security risk
KJC Coins may change the shipping arrangements to ensure secure delivery at your cost if:

(a)            you have placed a large order, the value of which exceeds the insurable value of such an order on a single shipment/delivery basis; or

(b)            if KJC Coins reasonably believes that the specified area for delivery of the Bullion is a high risk, remote or unsafe delivery location.

12.11    Insurance of Bullion
The delivery of Bullion pursuant to a Buy Order will be insured on a single shipment/delivery basis for a maximum value not exceeding $60,000 (Sixty Thousand Dollars). As such, if your order is valued at more than $60,000 KJC Coins will, at your cost, ship your Bullion in two or more parcels to ensure that the Bullion is insured.

12.12    You can make your own Delivery arrangements
If any notified increase in shipping costs is unacceptable to you, then you must immediately:

(a)            advise KJC Coins that you will make your own delivery arrangements; and

(b)            at your own cost and risk make alternative arrangements for the collection of the Bullion from the premises of KJC Coins. Such alternative arrangements must be made directly by telephone with KJC Coins and confirmed by either you or by KJC Coins by email or fax.

12.13    Adjustment to delivery cost
On notification of your alternative arrangements for collection of the Bullion, KJC Coins will adjust the purchase price of your Bullion by the amount of any shipping costs invoiced to you that you no longer require. If the new arrangements involve some cost to KJC Coins, then any adjustment will reflect the expense that KJC Coins will incur as a result of you making your own arrangements.

12.14    Collection of the Bullion in person by You
Bullion can only be collected in person:

(a)            by you on production of satisfactory identification; or

(b)            by your agent with your prior written express authority upon production of satisfactory identification by the agent.

 

12.15    When KJC will not be liable for wrong delivery
KJC Coins recommends that you take personal delivery of the Bullion because KJC Coins will not be liable for wrongful delivery of the Bullion if:

(a)            the Bullion is collected by a person using misleading or fraudulent identification or fraudulent written authority for collection at your nominated delivery address;

(b)            you provide incorrect delivery details;

(c)            a third party signs for delivery of the Bullion at the delivery address provided using misleading or fraudulent identification; or

(d)            you amend or vary any delivery instructions that KJC Coins has provided to the specified delivery carrier.

12.16    Insurance ceases 2 days after first delivery attempt
KJC Coins has in place complimentary insurance for loss or damage to your Bullion in the event delivery of your Bullion to your nominated address is not effected on the first occasion delivery is attempted.  Such insurance expires at the end of the second business day immediately following notification given to you by KJC Coins or the courier engaged by KJC Coins of the first attempted delivery.  Notification is given by leaving a delivery note at the nominated address and/or by emailing you. For the avoidance of doubt you assume all risk of loss or damage to your Bullion from the second business day after notification is given to you of first attempted delivery. . 

12.17    When you must make your own insurance arrangements

13         Refund and exchange policy

13.1       When KJC Coins will exchange the goods
