Terms of Web Sales

Intellectual Property Rights

Vernay shall remain the sole and exclusive owner of all intellectual property embodied in or used to design or manufacture tooling supplied or altered by Vernay.

Payment Terms

When purchasing Vernay products using our on-line ordering system, we accept Mastercard and Visa. The transaction amount, in U.S. dollars, will be placed on your credit card within 7 business days of the time of shipment.

Buyer’s Cancellation of Order

Buyer must initiate cancellation of its order by notifying Vernay in writing of its desire to cancel. The cancellation becomes effective upon consent by Vernay. Vernay cannot accept cancellation requests once the product has entered the shipping process. If an order is currently in the shipping process, or has been shipped, the buyer must follow Vernay’s Return Policy and is subject to a 25% re-stocking fee.

Quantity Variance

Vernay precision engineered elastomeric parts are by design frequently very small. As a result packaged quantities are determined on the basis of “weigh count” rather than individual piece counts. Therefore, quantities may vary by 10% over-or-under the quantity ordered.

Warranty/Limitations of Liability

Seller’s products are warranted only to be free from defects in workmanship and material and shall be subject to Seller’s normal manufacturing tolerances and quality control procedures. SELLER’S PRODUCTS ARE NOT GUARANTEED FOR ANY SPECIFIC LENGTH OF TIME, MEASURE OF SERVICE, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR USE OF MERCHANTABILITY, ONLY THE EXPRESS WARRANTY HEREIN SET FORTH SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE BEEN MADE BY SELLER, OR RELIED ON BY BUYER AND SELLER HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. All previous communications, whether in the form of engineering recommendations or otherwise, are effective only to the extent expressly repeated herein. Engineering recommendations constitute merely the Seller’s opinion and best judgment and do not constitute a warranty.

Seller’s liability for breach of the express warranty set forth above is limited to refunding the purchase price of the defective product or, at Seller’s option, to replacement upon its return. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL SELLER BE RESPONSIBLE FOR LOSS OF PROFIT, DAMAGE TO GOODWILL OR ANY OTHER FORM OF CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGE. No claim for any breach of warranty herein shall be valid unless delivered to Seller in writing within thirty (30) days after delivery of the product with respect to which the claim is made.

If requested by Seller, products or parts for which a warranty claim is made are to be returned, transportation prepaid, to Seller’s facilities. Any improper use, operation beyond tolerance or capacity, substitution of parts not approved by Seller, or any alteration or repair in such manner as in Seller’s judgment affects the products materially and adversely shall void the warranty the Buyer hereunder.

Credit

All orders are subject to credit approval. Seller may at any time prior to the delivery to Buyer of the product alter, or suspend credit, refuse shipment or cancel unfilled orders when in Seller’s opinion, Buyer’s financial condition, or the status of Buyer’s account, warrants it or when delivery is delayed through Buyer’s fault. Any unpaid balance shall constitute a lien on any of Buyer’s tooling in Seller’s possession.
