These Terms shall govern the transaction between Seller and Buyer (collectively, the “Parties”) notwithstanding terms or conditions posted on Seller’s webpage, advertising, and other materials.

To the extent other materials are in conflict with these Terms, these Terms shall control.

2. Delivery.

(a) The Goods will be delivered within a reasonable time after Seller’s dispatch of the Sales Confirmation. Seller shall not be liable for any delays, loss, or damage in transit.
(b) Seller shall deliver the Goods to the commercial shipment company of Seller’s choice using Seller’s standard methods for packaging and shipping such goods.
(c) Seller may, in its sole discretion, without liability or penalty, make partial shipments of Goods to Buyer. Each shipment will constitute a separate sale, and Buyer shall pay for the units shipped whether such shipment is in whole or partial fulfillment of the quantity purchased under these Terms.
(d) Delivery shall be made FOB Cleveland, OH. Seller shall make delivery in accordance with the terms on the face of the Sale Confirmation.

The Seller shall not be liable for any non-delivery of Goods (even if caused by Seller’s negligence) unless Buyer gives written notice to Seller of the non-delivery within 30 days of the date when the Goods would in the ordinary course of events have been received.
(b) Any liability of Seller for non-delivery of the Goods shall be limited to replacing the Goods within a reasonable time.

The security interest granted under this provision constitutes a purchase money security interest under the Ohio Uniform Commercial Code.

5. Inspection and Rejection of Nonconforming Goods.

Buyer shall ship, at its expense and risk of loss, the Nonconforming Goods to Seller. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the remedies set forth above are Buyer’s exclusive remedies for the delivery of Nonconforming Goods.

(a) Buyer shall purchase the Goods from Seller at the price (“Price”) set forth in Seller’s published price list in force as of the date of Buyer’s purchase. All applicable taxes and duties shall be paid by Buyer. All discount terms, if any, will be calculated from the basis of the original Price.
