Terms and Conditions of Sale
These Terms and Conditions govern the sale of products by Go Professional Cases ("Caseman") to the purchasing customer ("Purchaser"). Submission of a purchase order constitutes acceptance of these Terms unless otherwise agreed in a written agreement signed by both parties.
1. Quote Validity
This quotation is valid for 10 calendar days from the date of issue. Orders not placed within this period are subject to re-quote at then-current pricing.2. Pricing and Drawing Changes
Pricing and delivery are based on the Purchaser-approved drawing in effect at the time of purchase order. Any Purchaser-requested drawing revision requires a written re-quote and may incur a separately quoted Non-Recurring Engineering (NRE) charge covering design time, production and inspection of a revised first article, and any material rendered unusable by the revision. Revision work and any resulting schedule change will proceed only upon Purchaser acceptance of the NRE quote. Drawing revisions may reset the delivery schedule.
3. Design and Technical Advice
Any technical advice or design work provided by Caseman represents its best judgment, is provided "as is," and is used at the Purchaser's own risk. Caseman makes no warranty that any design is suitable for the Purchaser's intended application. Validation of fitness for use remains solely the Purchaser's responsibility.
4. Design Ownership and Reverse Engineering
All engineering, drawings, tooling, foam patterns, and other designs created or developed by Caseman, alone or jointly with Purchaser, for packaging or protection of Purchaser products, are and remain the exclusive property of Caseman. Payment for products, NRE, or first articles does not transfer ownership. Ownership transfers only through a separate written agreement and payment of a design transfer fee. Caseman designs may be used only for products manufactured by Caseman. Purchaser shall not reverse engineer Caseman products or designs, nor permit any third party to manufacture from them. Purchaser retains ownership of its own product specifications and drawings.
5. Order Commitment and Delivery
Orders become firm upon Caseman acceptance of the purchase order. Production and delivery schedules are binding. Completed units will be shipped and invoiced upon completion in accordance with the agreed schedule. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, shipments are FOB Origin, and title and risk of loss pass to Purchaser upon tender at Caseman's facility. Caseman does not provide finished goods storage. Goods not accepted when complete remain Purchaser's property and risk.
6. Delivery Schedule Changes
Deliveries scheduled within 60 days are firm and may not be rescheduled by Purchaser. Caseman may, at its discretion, accelerate deliveries where capacity permits. Changes to deliveries scheduled beyond 60 days require Caseman approval and written notice. No approved reschedule may reduce the total committed quantity. Caseman is not responsible for delays caused by suppliers, carriers, force majeure, or other events beyond its reasonable control.
7. Cancellation
Deliveries scheduled within 60 days are non-cancellable and will be produced and invoiced in full. For deliveries scheduled beyond 60 days, Purchaser may cancel only the not-yet-started balance. All completed and work-in-process units will be completed and invoiced at full contract price. The cancelled balance will incur committed material costs plus a capacity reservation charge equal to 30% of the cancelled balance value.
8. Material Acceptance and Issue Reporting
Purchaser shall inspect all goods within 15 days of receipt and notify Caseman in writing of any visible defects. Absent written notice within this period, the goods are deemed accepted. Latent defects must be reported within 30 days of discovery. Caseman shall not be liable for consequential, incidental, indirect, or special damages.
Acceptance
These Terms and Conditions are incorporated into every quotation, purchase order accepted by Caseman, and subsequent sale unless superseded by a separately executed written agreement signed by authorized representatives of both parties.
