WEBSITE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR THE SALE OF GOODS
Formation of Contract
The person who selected the product(s) (“Buyer,” “you,” or “your”) makes a firm offer to Osborne Industries, Inc. or its assigns (“Seller,” “us,” or “we”) to purchase such product(s) (“Goods”) described in an order submitted through the website at www.osbornelivestockequipment.com (the “Order”) using the procedures described in such website and under this Agreement. Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, Seller accepts Buyer’s offer at the earlier of when (1) Seller sends Buyer a written acceptance (by e-mail, fax, or otherwise), (b) Seller ships Buyer’s Order, or (c) Seller accepts by the signature of its Contract Manager. Seller’s acceptance and this Agreement are conditioned on Seller’s on-going credit review and approval of Buyer and Seller’s on-going determination that Buyer and this agreement comply with all applicable laws and regulations. Seller reserves the right to make partial shipment of one or more Goods contained in the Order, and unless otherwise specified in Seller’s written acceptance, partial shipment of an Order will be acceptance of only that portion of an Order. For Goods not currently in Seller’s inventory, Seller may either (a) place such Goods on backorder and notify Buyer of such status, unless such Goods will be in Seller’s inventory within thirty (30) days, or (b) in Seller’s sole discretion, terminate this Agreement with respect to Goods not in Seller’s inventory by notice to Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, acceptance is strictly limited to the terms and conditions in this Agreement. Seller objects to and rejects any provision additional to or different from the terms of this Agreement that may appear in Buyer’s purchase order, acknowledgement, confirmation, writing, or in any other prior or later communication from Buyer to Seller, or arising out of course of dealing or usage in the trade, unless such provision is expressly agreed to by Seller in a writing signed by Seller’s authorized representative.
Purchase Price and Payment
Buyer agrees to pay in full the Purchase Price of the Goods and all packing, shipping, handling, document fees, taxes, and other costs as stated in the Order. The total amount of the Purchase Price must be payable in full using the payment methods and procedures specified in the Order by Buyer at the time Buyer submits the Order. Except for taxes on Seller’s net income and as detailed in the Order, the Purchase Price of the Equipment does not include and Buyer will be solely responsible for the amount of all federal, state, and local taxes, duties, imposts, tariffs, or other similar levies arising out of or related to the performance of this Agreement. Buyer indemnifies and holds Seller harmless from the payment of any such taxes, plus any penalties, interest, or costs connected with the imposition of the same. If Seller does not receive payment in full using a payment method specified in the Order, Seller may cancel the Order, in whole or in part, without notice, or invoice Buyer for the amount of the Purchase Price not paid. Invoices are due on receipt by Buyer. In addition to any other remedies available to Seller, Buyer will pay to Seller a fee on all past-due charges until paid in full equal to the lesser of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month or the highest rate allowed by law, together with all costs of collection, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees.
Online Gift Cards & Promotions
This website may offer online gift cards and promotions. Gift cards or promotional codes cannot be redeemed for cash, except as required by law.
Security Interest
Until the Goods are paid in full in immediately available funds at the time of delivery, Seller retains and Buyer hereby grants to Seller a purchase-money security interest in the Goods, including all accessories, spare parts, special fittings, and tools thereof, and all additions, accessions, increases, improvements, renewals, substitutions, or replacements thereof (collectively, the “Collateral”), together with all proceeds from any sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral to secure the full amount owed, together with all interest, fees, and penalties. Unless Buyer executes a separate security agreement with Seller covering the Collateral, this Agreement will constitute a security agreement for the Collateral. Promptly upon request, Buyer will do any act and execute, acknowledge, deliver, file, register, record, and ratify all documents requested by Seller, in Seller’s discretion, to perfect Seller’s security interest in the Collateral, including but not limited to, any financing statements. Buyer hereby irrevocably appoints Seller its attorney-in-fact to do such acts and to execute and file all such documents on Buyer’s behalf. A breach by Buyer of the terms, representations, or warranties of this Agreement, including but not limited to, failure to timely pay in full the Purchase Price, will constitute an event of default, and all amounts owing to Seller will be immediately due, and Seller will have all rights and remedies in law or in equity, including but not limited to, the Kansas Uniform Commercial Code, and as set forth in this Agreement.
Delivery and Risk of Loss
Unless otherwise agreed in writing, delivery shall be made in accordance with Seller’s shipping policy in effect on the date of shipment. Delivery dates provided by Seller are estimates only. Seller will make reasonable efforts to deliver in accordance with such dates; however, Seller will not be liable for failure to deliver as estimated. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by Seller, Goods shall be packaged according to Seller’s standards and practices. At this time Seller can only fulfill orders placed on the website that ship to the 48 continental states in the U.S.A. For international orders, please call Osborne Customer Service. The Goods are delivered to Buyer F.O.B. Seller’s shipping dock. Seller’s responsibility for shipment ceases upon delivery to carrier, and any claims for shortages, delays for damages occurring thereafter must be made by Buyer direct to the carrier.
