CONDITIONS OF SALE

 

CONTRACT

 

The provisions herein set forth, plus all drawings, specifications, descriptions and other documents constitute the entire contracts between the Company and the Buyer and supersede all prior quotations, purchase orders, correspondence and other communications, whether written or oral, between the Company and the Buyer. No provisions of the Company's Conditions of Sale shall be subject to change except by the written authorization of a properly authorized representative of the Company in Grand Rapids, MI. The failure of the Company to object to any provisions in the conflict herewith, whether contained on the Buyer's purchase order or otherwise shall not be construed as a waiver of the provisions hereof nor as acceptance thereof. This contract shall be governed by and construed according to the laws of the State of Michigan. Should any term or provision contained in these conditions contravene or be invalid under applicable law, the contract of which these conditions form a part shall not fail by reason thereof but shall be construed in the same manner as if such term of provision had not appeared.

 

TERMS

 

Standard terms cash upon delivery or Net 30 days with a valid credit card on file.  Invoices not paid by 45 days after date of invoice will automatically be charged against credit card on file.  Amounts past due are subject to a service charge of 18% per annum or the current prime rate per annum, whichever is greater. If the Company in its judgment at any time deems that, by reason of the financial condition of the Buyer or otherwise, the continuance of production or shipment on the terms specified therein is not justified, the Company may require full or partial payment in advance. Certain orders may, in the judgment of the Company because of their nature or delivery involved, require progress payments. Pro rata payments shall become due as shipments are made. The Company's failure to exercise any right accruing from any default of the Buyer shall not impair any rights in case of subsequent default by the Buyer. If legal action is brought to enforce this debt, the Buyer agrees to pay such attorney's fees as may be incurred.

 

DELIVERY

 

Shipping dates given by the Company are approximate and are based on prompt receipt of all necessary information regarding the order. The Company will use its best efforts to meet the scheduled date shown, but does not guarantee to do so. Failure to make shipments as scheduled does not constitute a cause for cancellation and /or for damages of any character. In the event of any delay requested by the Buyer or any delay caused by lack of shipping instructions, the Company will store all items ordered at the Buyer's risk and expense, and will invoice the Buyer for the full contract price of the product on or after the date on which the order is ready for delivery. The Company is not responsible for any loss, damage or delay that may occur after the order has been accepted for shipment by the Motor Carrier company used, (eg. UPS, FedEx or any other Common Carrier).  Any such claim should be made to the carrier in accordance with Section 2 of the Uniform Bill of Lading.
