WE GLADLY ACCEPT YOUR OFFER, BUT THIS ACCEPTANCE IS EXPRESSLY MADE CONDITIONAL ON ASSENT TO OUR ADDITIONAL AND DIFFERENT TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
The following are the terms and conditions (“Terms and Conditions”) for the sale of products (“Products”) by Power Transmission Specialties, Inc. to Power Transmission Specialties customers (“Customer”). These Terms and Conditions shall apply to the exclusion of all other terms referred to in any purchase order, acknowledgment, confirmation or any other documentation issued by either party, unless agreed in writing and signed by an authorized officer of Power Transmission Specialties. Power Transmission Specialties reserves the right to amend these Terms and Conditions at any time. The most current version of these Terms and Conditions can be found at www.Bodinedirect.com.
1. ORDERS. Orders will be initiated by Customer issuing a purchase order to Power Transmission Specialties, Inc. or Bodinedirect.com. Orders must identify the Products, unit quantities, part numbers, descriptions, applicable prices and requested delivery dates. Orders are subject to Power Transmission Specialties acceptance. Power Transmission Specialties reserves the right to limit quantities and to refuse to deal with any person.
2. PRICES. Orders are billed at the prices (in US dollars) in effect at the time of shipment. The catalog reflects the latest pricing information available at the time of printing, which are subject to change without notice. Non-standard Products will be sold at the prices set out in the relevant quotation supplied by Power Transmission Specialties. If Customer does not purchase the quantity upon which quantity prices are based, Customer will pay the non-discounted price for the quantity actually purchased and/or a cancellation fee. Prices for any rescheduled deliveries may be increased by Power Transmission Specialties in the event of an increase in Power Transmission Specialties prices or costs or causes beyond Power Transmission Specialties reasonable control.
Prices do not include federal, state and local sale, use, excise and similar taxes that apply to Products, which Customer will also pay at the applicable rate unless an original signed tax exemption certificate is received by Allied.
3. TERMS OF PAYMENT. If Power Transmission Specialties has not granted credit to Customer payment terms are cash on delivery. COD order minimum is $50.00. COD orders totaling $1000.00 or more must be paid with certified funds (certified check, money order or cashier’s check). Most carriers will not accept cash and require payment by check of some form regardless of the total. There is a $25.00 service charge on all returned checks.
If credit has been granted, payment is net 30 days from date of invoice. All payments must be made without set-off or deduction. Orders are subject to credit approval by Power Transmission Specialties, which may in its sole discretion at any time change the terms of Customer’s credit or require advance payment or payment by official bank check. If Power Transmission Specialties reasonably believes that Customer’s ability to make payments is impaired, Power Transmission Specialties may cancel any order or remaining balance thereof, and Customer will remain liable to pay Power Transmission Specialties for Products already shipped. Customer will submit such financial information as Power Transmission Specialties may reasonably require for determination of credit terms. Checks are accepted subject to collection and the date of collection will be deemed the date of payment. Any payment received from Customer may be applied by Power Transmission Specialties against any obligation owing by Customer to Power Transmission Specialties under this or any other contract, regardless of any statement appearing on or referring to such payment, without discharging Customer’s liability for any additional amounts owing by Customer to Power Transmission Specialties. The acceptance by Power Transmission Specialties of such payment will not constitute a waiver of Power Transmission Specialties right to pursue the collection of any remaining balance. If Customer fails to make payment when due, without prejudice to any other right or remedy, (i) overdue sums will bear interest to date of payment at the annual rate of 18% or such lower rate as may be the maximum permitted by law; and (ii) Allied will be entitled to reimbursement for all costs of collection and attorneys’ fees. Credit cards accepted are MasterCard, Visa, American Express and Discover.
4. DELIVERY AND TITLE. All shipments by Power Transmission Specialties are FOB point of shipment from Power Transmission Specialties Suppliers facility and the amount of all shipment charges shall be paid to Power Transmission Specialties by Customer in addition to the purchase price of the Products. Selection of the carrier and delivery route will be made by Power Transmission Specialties unless specifically designated by Customer. Power Transmission Specialties will aim to initiate shipment and deliver the Products as close as possible to Customer’s requested delivery date(s). Customer acknowledges that shipment and delivery dates provided by Power Transmission Specialties are estimates only and that Power Transmission Specialties will not be liable for failure to achieve such dates. For the avoidance of doubt delivery of Products within 30 days of the requested delivery date shall constitute timely delivery. Delivery of a quantity within ±10% of the quantity ordered will constitute full delivery. Delay in delivery of one installment will not entitle Customer to cancel any other installment(s).
Delivery to a carrier will constitute delivery to Customer, and risk of loss of or damage to the Products will pass to Customer at this point. Title to the Products shall remain with Allied until payment in full for the Products by Customer. Products invoiced and held by Power Transmission Specialties at Customer’s request will be held at Customer’s risk and expense.
