TERMS & CONDITIONS




 TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF QUOTATION AND SALE 

These Terms and Conditions form a part of the quotation and/or acceptance of Buyer's purchase order in connection with which they have been supplied to Buyer, and of any subsequent purchase by Buyer until such time as revised Terms and Conditions of Quotation and Sale are supplied to Buyer, in which case the latest supplied Terms and Conditions of Quotation and Sale, until later replaced, will apply to all subsequent such purchase orders. 

DEFINITIONS - The word "CCR" as used herein shall mean COMMERCIAL CONSTRUCTON RESOURCES LLC, DBA CCR MACHINERY. The word "Purchases" as used herein shall mean one or more of the basic Machine, its equipment, accessories, parts and optional items as are purchased under the "Contract" as hereinafter defined. The word "Machine" as used herein shall mean the basic Machine utilizing equipment and/or accessories and/or parts and/or optional items purchased under such Contract, or the basic Machine on which the Purchases will be used if such Machine was purchased from CCR or another supplier under a different earlier contract. 

PRICES - All prices are quoted U.S. duty paid unless otherwise indicated. CCR will endeavor to maintain the prices quoted for any Machine, but cost increases beyond its control, including changes in foreign exchange rates, may necessitate price increases. Prices in effect at the time of CCR's oral or written acceptance of Buyer's oral or written purchase order will prevail and will be firm and binding. 

PURCHASE ORDER - The Buyer's purchase order, whether oral or written, shall be an offer to purchase based upon the relevant oral or written quotation made by CCR, and shall be subject in all respects to these Terms and Conditions of Quotation and Sale. Buyer's purchase order will become binding upon CCR only when accepted by CCR orally or in writing or by shipping a purchased item. The quotation by CCR is not an offer. The details of an oral purchase order, the details of any oral acceptance by CCR and the date of shipping shall be conclusively the respective dates thereof solely as shown by the records of CCR or of CCR's supplier kept in the ordinary course of business. It will be the responsibility of Buyer to ascertain and understand the capacity rating of a Machine, if any, being ordered at any time and to determine that it will meet Buyer's requirements and that Buyer's use thereof will not exceed any capacity rating of the Machine or of its equipment, accessories, parts and/or optional items. 

CANCELLATION - Buyer's oral or written purchase order shall not be subject to cancellation by Buyer before or after acceptance by CCR except with CCR's written consent, and then only upon terms and conditions that will fully indemnify CCR against all losses resulting therefrom. 

CONTRACT - The contract between Buyer and CCR shall consist of Buyer's oral or written purchase order and any relevant oral or written quotation made by CCR, the acceptance of the purchase order by CCR, whether oral or written or by shipping, and these Terms and Conditions of Quotation and Sale (the "Contract"). CCR's records of any oral part of the Contract shall be conclusively evidenced by CCR's records thereof kept in the ordinary course of business. 

DELIVERIES, LIMITATION OF LIABILITY - CCR shall under no circumstances be responsible or liable for delays, nonperformance, loss or damages, whether direct or consequential, due to any circumstances beyond CCR's control, in which event CCR shall have the right to revoke its acceptance of Buyer's purchase order, without any responsibility or liability to Buyer whatsoever, whether direct or consequential. 

PURCHASES BY CREDIT CARD - If Buyer shall pay its obligation to CCR by credit card, Buyer's purchase order shall not be cancelable by Buyer after payment has been made by credit card except with the written consent of CCR, and the granting or withholding of such consent shall be totally at the discretion of CCR. 

FREIGHT RATES - CCR neither guarantees nor assumes any responsibility or liability for domestic or international freight rates. 

RISKS - Purchases will travel totally at Buyer's risk, and the Buyer hereby assumes all risks of loss, injury or destruction occurring after the time of shipment of the Purchases to Buyer by CCR or the manufacturer. No such loss, injury or destruction shall operate in any manner to release the Buyer from the obligation to pay for the shipped Purchases. In the event of damage or loss in transit, CCR will, if feasible, assist Buyer in asserting Buyer's claim against the carrier or insurer. 

TITLE - Title and ownership of all Purchases shall remain with CCR after receipt thereof by Buyer until payment therefor has been made in full.

All claims made within said five (5) day period of time will, if justified, be satisfied by CCR or the manufacturer in accordance with the LIMITED WARRANTY set forth below. 

RETURNS - CCR will not accept any return of Purchases unless (a) CCR shall have authorized each such return and (b) Buyer shall have prepaid all freight charges thereon to CCR's warehouse or other designated consignee. Any conditions specified by CCR in CCR's authorization of any return of Purchases shall bind the Buyer making the return.
