9)     If, despite clause 8, a book is returned that book will be held by First and Best pending payment of the amount due, and the book will be returned only after the sum due has been paid.   Your attention is particularly drawn both to clause 8 above and clause 13 below.    First and Best gives particular attention to the way in which its advertising is written to ensure that each advertisement for a book represents a reasonable and fair description of the book.   Should you feel that this is not the case with a particular book you should in the first instance write to First and Best with your comments before returning the book so that the matter can be fully investigated.  

10) Many of the books that are supplied by First and Best include a licence to copy the materials.  In all cases this licence only allows copying for use within the school or college that purchases the materials.  The books may not be copied for use in any institution beyond the institution buying the materials.  Also no part of the book may be put on any internet or intranet site or any similar system without permission in writing from the publishers.   Ordering of the book is deemed to be a sign of acceptance of this specific restriction on the use of the book.  Software supplied via this site is supplied for use on a single machine.  A separate site licence is required where the school or other body wishes to use the software on more than one machine.  

11) Teachers who are buying books on behalf of schools may opt to have the school pay on invoice.   Where an individual does select this option it is inherent within the order that the individual is acting with the knowledge and agreement of the school.
