2. Obligations and General Terms–
a. Delivery - In any case in which Seller makes delivery, Buyer will pay Seller’s customary shipping charges as provided on any invoice, quote or confirmation email. Delivery will be made as instructed by the Buyer. Title and risk of loss passes to Buyer upon delivery of the goods. Should Buyer not be present to accept delivery, Buyer authorizes Seller, or Seller’s common carrier agent to unload the goods and leave them at the delivery destination. Buyer releases Seller and will indemnify and hold harmless Seller from and against any and all claims demands, actions, causes of action, cost, expenses, and attorneys’ fees arising out of or in connection with any and all injury including death, to any person or persons (whether third parties or agents, servants, or employees of Buyer), any and all damages to or loss of any property (whether belonging to Buyer or a third party), and any and all other damages recognized at law or in equity caused in whole or in part by or in any way related to the delivery of goods onto (or adjacent to) Buyer’s property or instructed destination by Seller, whenever such delivery is made in accordance with or pursuant to Buyer’s instruction or authorization.
b. Buyer Right of Inspection - Buyer has the right to inspect any goods purchased from seller upon arrival. Buyer’s inspection rights expire five (5) days after the arrival of the goods at the delivery destination. A failure to make inspection within that time waives notice of any defect that a reasonable inspection would have revealed. A rejection of the goods by Buyer is not effective unless written notice of rejection and sufficient explanation as to the rejection is given to Seller within five (5) days of delivery.
c. Payment Default - Seller may suspend partial or complete deliveries of any goods purchased if Buyer defaults in payment of any amounts due, or whenever Seller may deem itself insecure as to Buyer’s performance, until Buyer remedies such default or provides assurance that satisfies Seller in its sole discretion, of Buyer’s ability to perform. Seller may cancel any order at any time prior to payment by Buyer.
d. Return Policy - Seller will accept the return of merchandise for exchange or credit only with advance written authorization. Returned materials will be credited at the actual cost paid as determined by the proof of purchase, LESS ALL FREIGHT COSTS paid by Seller.

Upon Buyer’s request, replacement shipment will be made subject to general terms and conditions as a new order.
f. Warranty – Seller’s products carry an unconditional six (6) month guarantee. Seller must be notified within 48 hours of receipt of defective or damaged merchandise or shortages. Any equipment or tools that are disassembled without prior written consent from Seller will have the warranty voided. Defective products will either be replaced or repaired at no charge. Abused tools will be repaired and returned only if the customer consents to charges. The maximum amount of Liability Seller shall have is the actual purchase price of products and/or services obtained. To claim under a warranty, proper operation and maintenance must occur. Buyer must properly operate and maintain the product, including parts and accessories, in compliance with all operation and maintenance instructions, in normal use, and in good condition and repair.
g. Authorization for modification - Buyer must obtain written authorization from Seller before making any modification of any product, part or accessory in order to NOT void the applicable warranty. Failure to do so, in advance, will result in the warranty becoming Null and Void at the time of modification.
h. Damages - Seller will not be liable for any damages attributable to product abuse, misuse, neglect or any other cause, which is not the fault of Seller. Seller has no liability to any person other than Buyer by virtue of the sale of the goods or services, or any other matters contemplated by this Agreement.

i. Buyer’s Remedies/Seller’s Limitation of Liability - Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy and the limit of Seller’s liability for goods or services proven to be other than warranted, whether based upon breach of warranty, negligence, strict liability, tort, breach of contract or any other legal theory, will be, at Seller’s option, (i) replacement of the goods or services, without charge, freight paid to Buyer’s facility; or (ii) refund of the purchase price paid in respect of such goods or services, plus commercially reasonable charges in connection with the return or disposition of goods (if applicable). Seller’s liability will not exceed the aggregate purchase price of the particular goods and services with respect to which losses, damages, expenses or costs are claimed.
j. Trademark - The purchase of goods or services will not entitle Buyer to use, or otherwise identify Buyer or its business with the name, trademark or other identity of Seller.

k. Dispute Resolution - Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this agreement, or the breach thereof, shall first be settled through good faith negotiation within 90 days of written notice by one party to the other by the executives of the Buyer and Seller.
