    (a) For nails sold by a wholesaler whose place of business is situate in any of the cities of Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, or Dunedin, the maximum wholesale price shall be the appropriate price fixed in the Schedule hereto :
    (b) For nails sold by any other wholesaler, the maximum wholesale price shall be the appropriate price fixed in the Schedule hereto increased by a proportionate part of any freight charges incurred by the wholesaler in obtaining delivery into his premises.
