to a handling charge of $5 in addition to postage. Orders above $100 value will be registered.
Payment: New customers are requested to submit payment with their first order, either by cheque, money order or direct deposit.
Established customers may arrange credit account facilities, in which case payment is expected strictly in accordance with arrangements
made. If by direct deposit, customers may obtain our bank details upon request
Despatch: Orders are despatched by mail unless otherwise arranged. Risk in the seed passes to the purchaser upon our delivery to the Post
Office, freight depot or other place of despatch. If required by the purchaser, transit insurance can be arranged by Australian Seed
Company when the order is placed.
Availability of seed: Seed will often be available ex­stock. However, if requested, those seeds not immediately available may be placed on
back­order for supply from the next harvest. Unsupplied back­orders are cancelled after 12 months. Forward orders may be accepted
subject to crop success of the next harvest. Seeds of some species, including Eucalypts and Angophoras are supplied in the natural state,
which includes a proportion of “chaff” (undeveloped seed). However, as required for automatic sowing equipment, seeds of many
Eucalytus species can be supplied in pure form subject to the quantity required permitting economic processing. Please enquire regarding
prices and availability of this service.
Most native grass seed is collected from natural stands and may therefore contain a small proportion of other species occuring in the stand.
Seed of native grasses is usually supplied in the floret form, except where availability of pure seed is indicated.
Species Identification: Parent plants are carefully identified, and independent botanical confirmation is arranged if doubt exists. We shall
be pleased to consider the collection of seed from special strains or provenances of listed species.
OVERSEAS CUSTOMERS
Payment is to be submitted with the order unless prior arrangements for credit have been made. Payment should be made in Australian
currency by Bank Draft, International Bank Cheque, Telegraphic Transfer or by Internet Banking. If by Telegraphic Transfer, a bank
charge of $15 is payable by the customer, and this amount should be included in the remittance.
Quotations: Please enquire regarding availability of seeds and obtain our firm quotation prior to submitting an order. Quotations on an
FOB, C&F or CIF basis will be provided as required. It is the purchaser's responsibility to check and advise us of your country's
import requirements. Documentation such as Import Permits, where necessary, should be supplied to us by the customer for inclusion
with the shipment. If a Phytosanitary Certificate is required by the customer, Government fees and any associated costs are payable,
minimum charge $110.
Postage or freight on overseas orders is charged at cost. Overseas orders of less than $100 are subject to a handling charge of $10 in
addition to postage or freight. If insurance is required, this should be arranged when the order is placed.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
Seeds are supplied for propagation only, and should not be used for consumption by humans or livestock. Propagation is subject to many
variables over which we have no control and therefore productiveness cannot be guaranteed. In most cases seeds are collected from natural
stands and characteristics can vary because of genetic variability. Impurities may exist in seed supplied, depending upon the practicability
of their separation and removal. In all cases, and in any event, our total responsibility is limited to the invoiced value of the seeds supplied,
which at our option we may replace with seeds of the same description, or may refund the cost. In no event will we be liable for any
special, incidental, indirect or consequential damages or exemplary or punitive damage to persons or property.
