Any purchase order covering the sale of Macro-Blue Inc. products or services shall be governed solely by these Condition of Sale and other written provisions mutually agreed upon in writing. Any oral understandings are expressly excluded. Any Conditions appearing on, incorporated by reference in, or attached to Buyer Requests for Quotes or Purchase Order Forms are hereby expressly rejected. Seller shall not be deemed to have waived these Conditions of Sale if it fails to object to provisions appearing on, incorporated by reference in, or attached to Buyer Requests for Quotes or Purchase Order forms unless agreed to in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Buyer and Seller. Buyer’s silence or acceptance or use of products or services constitutes acceptance to these Conditions of Sale. Any catalog, price lists, or outdated quotes do not constitute an offer. Seller reserves the right to reject any Order submitted for its acceptance.
Price Quotes are believed to be accurate; however, Seller reserves the right to correct inadvertent errors in prices prior to acceptance of an Order. Purchase prices are stated in United States dollars (USD), and payment shall be made in United States currency (USD). In the event payments are not made in a timely manner for any Order, Seller may, in addition to all other remedies provided at law, either: (1) declare Buyer’s performance in breach and terminate the Oder for default; (2) withhold future shipments under the Order until delinquent payments are made; (3) deliver future shipments under the Order on a cash with Order or cash in advance basis even after the delinquency is cured; (4) charge interest on the delinquency at a rate of 1.5 % per month or the maximum rate permitted by law, if lower, for each month or part thereof of delinquency in payment plus applicable storage charges, or inventory carrying charges; or (5) recover all costs of collection including reasonable attorney’s fees; and (6) at Sellers option combine any of the above rights and remedies as provided by law.
All amounts Buyer owes Seller under an Order shall be due and payable according to the terms of an Order. Buyer is prohibited from and shall not set off such amounts or any portion thereof, whether or not liquidated, against sums which Buyer asserts due it, its parent affiliates, subsidiaries or other divisions or units under transactions with Seller, its parents, affiliates, subsidiaries or other divisions or units.

Purchase Order Acceptance and Acknowledgement
An “Order Acknowledgement” document will advise Buyer of forecasted delivery dates. The Order Acknowledgement shall override the proposed schedule. In instances where quantities ordered prohibit total shipment within specified lead times, orders will be scheduled for the earliest available delivery thereafter.
Seller at all times reserves the right to alter prices or designs without notice due to policy of continued improvement. Seller is entitled in its sole discretion without the consent of Buyer to make changes, additions or improvements to products being delivered under an Order without liability or obligation to incorporate such changes, additions or improvements in any item manufactured, sold, or delivered prior to incorporation of the change, addition or improvement.
Delivery shall be in accordance with delivery schedule noted in Order Acknowledgement. Delivery of goods to common carrier or licensed trucker shall constitute delivery to Buyer and all risk of loss or damage in transit will be borne by Buyer. Seller reserves the right to make deliveries in installments. All such installments shall be separately invoiced and paid when due, without regard to subsequent deliveries. Delay in delivery of any installment shall not relieve Buyer of its obligation to accept remaining deliveries. Preservation, packing and packaging will be to standard commercial practices for domestic shipment. In the event a shipment is received damaged, notify delivery carrier at once and file a claim.
Buyer agrees that title to the purchased product(s) shall be vested to Seller until such time that Buyer pays to Seller the full amount as per invoice(s) rendered. Delivery dates are estimates only and Seller is not liable for delays in delivery or for failure to perform due to causes beyond the reasonable control of the Seller. A delayed delivery of any part of an Order does not entitle the Buyer to cancel other deliveries.
The Seller shall be excused from delays in delivery and performance of other contractual obligations under an Order caused by acts or omissions that are beyond reasonable control and without fail or negligence of Seller including but not limited to Government embargoes, blockades, seizure or freeze of assets, delays or refusals to grant an export license or suspension or revocation thereof, or any other acts of any Government, fires, floods, severe weather conditions, or any other acts of God, quarantines, labor strikes, or lockouts, riots, strife, insurrection, civil disobedience, ware, material shortages or delays in deliveries to Seller by third parties. If excusable delay circumstances extend for six months, either party may, at its option, terminate order without penalty or liability and without being deemed in default or breach thereof.

Material Shortages and Allocations
In the event Seller is unable to obtain in a timely manner material sufficient to fulfill all of its orders on hand, Seller shall have the right as a result of said material shortages to equitably allocate lesser quantities of products to be delivered to all Buyers on a proportionate basis and contract price shall be equitably adjusted, taking into consideration, among other things, reduced quantity of items to be delivered and increased productions costs, if any to Seller are a result of manufacturing lesser quantities.

Custom Products Policy
Custom items are not returnable. Custom products, by their nature, are products and materials, which have been altered, modified, cut, amended, and customized to your order, and are not resalable or returnable. Orders for custom products are subject to a cancellation fee of up to 100% of the order, depending on the stage of completion of the order at the date the cancellation or revision is accepted by the Seller. Buyer agrees to pay Seller for completed work allocated to Buyer’s order at the time of termination of the work at the unit selling price and all costs, direct and indirect for work-in-progress as well as costs resulting from cancellation and a reasonable profit therein. Specific cancellation charges will be dependent on the type of custom product ordered; a schedule detailing these charges will be forwarded to Buyer when Buyer’s cancellation is acknowledged.

We do not accept return packages without a valid RMA number printed on the package, and we do not accept postage-due or C.O.D. packages at any time for any reason.
