LEWISBins+ Terms and Conditions Sale

Quotations and Prices: All quotations are invitations for offers to purchase, not offers to sell, are subject to acceptance within 30 days, and may be changed or withdrawn prior to receipt of notice of acceptance.

Acceptance, Governing Provisions and Cancellation: No orders for products or services of ORBIS (hereinafter called "Seller"), shall be binding upon Seller until accepted in writing by an authorized official of seller at its home office in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin. Each order is subject to these terms and conditions and acceptance by Seller is expressly conditioned on purchaser's assent to such terms and conditions. Different or additional terms or conditions are hereby objected to and no other terms or conditions will be binding on Seller unless specifically agreed to in writing. Failure of Seller to object to any purchase order or other communication from a purchaser shall not be deemed acceptances thereof or a waiver of these conditions. Any contract for sale by Seller shall be governed by and construed according to the laws of the State of Wisconsin. No order accepted by Seller may be modified, canceled or terminated without Seller's prior written consent.

Errors and Variances: All clerical errors in Seller's Quotations, acknowledgments and invoices are subject to correction. All quantities shown on such documents , or on shipping documents, are subject to variance by plus or minus 3% or 2,000 units, whichever is less, without price or other Adjustment.

Delivery and Delay: Delivery of products to a carrier at Seller's plant or other shipping point shall constitute delivery to purchaser, and title shall pass to purchaser at that time. All risk of loss or damage in transit shall be borne by purchaser.

Seller may make delivery in installments, unless otherwise expressly stipulated in the contract for sale, and each installment shall be separately invoiced and paid for when due per invoice, without regard to subsequent deliveries. Delay in delivery of any installment shall not relieve purchaser of his obligations to accept subsequent deliveries. Seller shall not be liable for any damage as a result of any delay due to any cause beyond Seller's reasonable control. Delivery dates shall be extended for a period equal to any time lost by reason of any such delay.

Storage: If products are not shipped within 15 days after notification to the purchaser that they are ready for shipping, for any reason beyond Seller's control, including purchaser's failure to give shipping instructions, Seller may store such products at the purchaser's risk in a warehouse or yard or upon Seller's premises, and the purchaser shall pay all handling, transportation and storage costs at the prevailing commercial rates upon submission of invoices.

Payment Terms: The net amount of an invoice shall be due 30 days after date of shipment. Seller may demand full or partial payment in advance before proceeding with the contract. Seller's invoices are due and payable in one installment according to the terms printed on the invoice. If payment in full of any invoice is not made by or before the net due date, Buyer agrees to pay a service charge on the unpaid balance at the lower of one and one-half percent (1 1/2%) per month (i.e. 18% per annum), or the maximum rate permitted by law from the due date until the invoice and all service charges thereon have been paid in full. Buyer shall pay all collection fees, including attorney's fees, incurred by Seller while attempting to collect past due invoices.

Taxes and Other Charges: Any manufacturer's tax, retailer's occupation tax, use tax, sales tax, excise tax, duty, custom, inspection or testing fee, or any other tax, fee or charge of any nature whatsoever, imposed by any governmental authority, on or measured by any transaction between Seller and the purchaser (other than taxes on or measured by Seller's net income) shall be paid by purchaser in addition to the prices quoted or invoiced. If Seller is required to pay any such tax, fee or charge, purchaser shall reimburse Seller therefore.

Prices Quoted Assume Floor Loading: Packaging requirements on palletized shipments are subject to a wood pallet charge issued at time of invoice
Warranty: Seller warrants its products to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one year from date of shipment by Seller.

Seller's obligation is limited to such repair and replacement and conditioned upon Seller's receiving written notice of any alleged defect within the warranty period and no more than 10 days after its discovery and, at Seller's option, return of such products or parts to Seller, f.o.b. its factory. This warranty shall not apply to products or parts repaired or altered by others than Seller so as, in its judgment, to affect them adversely or subjected to negligence, accident, damage by circumstances beyond Seller's control, improper use or exposure to excessive heat or ultraviolet radiation, or to other than normal use or service. With respect to parts not manufactured by Seller, the warranty obligations of Seller shall in all respects conform and be limited to the warranty actually extended to Seller by the supplier.

THE FOREGOING WARRANTY IS EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER EXPRESS AND IMPLIED WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Seller shall not be subject to any other obligations or liabilities whatsoever with respect to its products or services or any undertakings, acts or omissions relating thereto.

Return of Products: Products may be returned to Seller for credit only when Seller's written permission is obtained by purchaser in advance. Returns authorized at purchaser's liability are to be returned to the original shipping point, freight prepaid by the purchaser. A restocking charge, the greater of 20% of the sales value of the return or $25.00, will be deducted from the credit issued by seller. Returns authorized at the Seller's specified carrier, to the seller's specified destination.

Return of Special Colors or Specifications: Items made to special color and/or particular specifications of buyer are not subject to return.

Purchaser shall indemnify Seller against all claims arising out of alleged infringement of patents, designs, copyrights or trademarks with respect to any goods manufactured to purchaser's specifications.

Consequential Damages: Anything to the contrary herein contained notwithstanding. Seller shall not be liable for any consequential, contingent or incidental damages whatsoever.

Multiple Shipping Locations: Individual orders for the same product item, to be drop-shipped to the same customer at more than one location, are subject to the price for the total quantity ordered. Shipments to any locations in excess of three (3) will have a $50.00 order/invoicing charge added to each additional invoice.

Freight Rate Quotations: Freight rates quoted by ORBIS are considered to be our best estimate at the time of quotation. ORBIS is unable to guarantee that the actual freight rates at the time of shipment will be the same as quoted. ORBIS reserves the right to adjust quoted freight rates to the rate in effect at the time of shipment.

FOB Terms: All products are shipped F.O.B point of origin of shipment. Unless otherwise requested by buyer, goods will be shipped via carrier of our choice. Truckload and small package shipping and handling charges will be pre-paid and added to the invoice. Less than truckload shipping and handling will be charged at current discounted rates. If buyer specifies carrier, ORBIS does not guarantee shipment in four (4) days. Shipments to any location in excess of three (3) will have a $50.00 handling charge added to each individual invoice.
