2. Price.

Buyer shall pay Seller for the Goods $_________________. Buyer shall make payment of the full purchase price by 10 days following delivery of the Goods by Seller as provided herein, subject to Buyer’s right of inspection as set forth in Section 4 below.  In the event that the purchase price is not timely paid, in addition to its other remedies, Seller may impose, and Buyer shall pay, a late payment charge equal to two percent (2%) of the overdue balance amount each month.

3. Shipping.

Buyer shall purchase goods FOB Seller’s location and be responsible for all expenses associated with shipping.   The risk of loss from any casualty to the Goods, regardless of the cause, shall be upon Buyer upon the delivery of the Goods to Buyer’s shipper as set forth herein.  When practicable, Seller will follow Buyer’s requested shipping instructions.  If none are requested, Seller will use its discretion in selecting an appropriate transportation method.

4. Right of Inspection.

Buyer shall have the right to inspect the goods on arrival at Buyer’s facility.  Within 3 days after delivery, Buyer must give notice to Seller of any claim with respect to the condition, quality or grade of the Goods or non-conformance to this Agreement, specifying the basis of the claim in detail by fax or recognized overnight delivery service such as FedEx.  Seller may, at its option inspect the Goods at Buyer’s facilities to confirm that the Goods do not conform.  Failure of Buyer to comply with these conditions within the time set forth herein shall constitute irrevocable acceptance of the Goods by Buyer.  In the event the Goods do not conform to this Agreement, Buyer’s sole remedy and Seller’s sole obligation shall be at Seller’s option to replace the Goods at Seller’s expense or credit Buyer the amount of the purchase price for the non-conforming goods.  Return shipping expensive in this case shall be the sole responsibility of Seller.

8. Limitation of Liability

In no event shall Seller be liable for any special, indirect, incidental or consequential damages arising out of or connected with this Agreement or the Goods, regardless of whether a claim is based on contract, tort, strict liability or otherwise, nor shall Buyer’s damages exceed the amount of the purchase price of the Goods.  This clause shall be broadly interpreted in favor of the Seller.

Review List

This review list is provided to inform you about the document in question and assist you in its preparation.

1. This agreement should be used only with tangible personal property.  “Personal property” includes items such as furniture, supplies and other “goods”.  It does not include real estate or intangible property (e.g., copyrights, software and other intellectual property).  This Agreement is not intended for regular inventory purchases.  This kind of agreement is generally used for the occasional purchase of property such as desks, chairs, used computer equipment, and other such equipment.

2. Clearly this form may not be appropriate for complex, technical, or perishable items that often require more specification, especially as to expected performance.

3. From a negotiation standpoint, with occasional purchases, both parties are better off to pay upon delivery or shipment.  Otherwise, controversy can linger and eat up a substantial amount of time, energy, and money.

4. Print two copies of the Agreement for the Sale of Goods, one for each party.  Both parties should sign each copy so that each can have an original copy.
