Terms & Conditions


Terms and Conditions for the Sale of Naturs Products

1. Applicability.  

These terms and conditions (these “Terms”), any executed Reseller/Distribution Agreement (the “Reseller Agreement”) covering the sale of products owned, developed, manufactured, or produced by Naturs Design, Inc. (“Seller”), including RemZzzs® CPAP liners, as well as any future Naturs products (collectively, “Naturs Products”), to the buyer of such Naturs Products ("Buyer"), along with any accompanying confirmation of sale (“Confirmation”), and Seller’s Minimum Advertised Price Policy (“MAP Policy”) are the only terms which govern the sale of Naturs Products.  These Terms, any Reseller Agreement, the Confirmation, and MAP Policy comprise the entire agreement between Seller and Buyer. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the terms of the Reseller Agreement shall prevail to the extent they are inconsistent with these Terms, the MAP Policy, or Confirmation. 

These Terms prevail over any of Buyer's general terms and conditions of purchase regardless OF whether or when Buyer has submitted its purchase order or BUYER’s terms AND CONDITIONS. Fulfillment of Buyer's order does not constitute acceptance of any of Buyer's terms and conditions and does not serve to modify or amend these Terms. 

2. Orders.

(a) By issuing an order for Naturs Products to Seller, Buyer makes an offer to purchase such Naturs Products pursuant to these Terms. Seller has no obligation to accept any order; however, Seller may accept an order by confirming the order in writing or by delivering the applicable Naturs Products to Buyer, whichever occurs first (each accepted order, an “Order”). Seller may reject or cancel an Order, which it may do without liability or penalty, and without constituting a waiver of any of Seller’s rights or remedies under these Terms. 


(b) Upon acceptance of an Order, Buyer shall be obligated to purchase from Seller quantities of Naturs Products specified in such Order. Cancellation or modification of all or part of any Order is subject to Seller’s prior written consent in each instance. If cancellation or modification is allowed, Buyer agrees to pay to Seller all expenses incurred and damage sustained by Seller as a result of the cancellation or modification.  

3. Delivery.  

(a) The Naturs Products will be delivered within a reasonable time after the receipt of an Order, subject to availability of finished Naturs Products. Seller shall not be liable for any delays, loss, or damage in transit.

(b) Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Seller and Buyer, Seller will, at Buyer’s cost and expense, deliver the Naturs Products, at the location specified in the Order (the “Delivery Point”), using Seller’s standard methods for packaging and shipping. Buyer shall take delivery of the Naturs Products within 2 days of Seller's written notice that the Naturs Products have been delivered to the Delivery Point. Buyer shall be responsible for all loading costs and provide equipment and labor reasonably suited for receipt of the Naturs Products at the Delivery Point.

(c) Seller may, in its sole discretion, without liability or penalty, make partial shipments of Naturs Products to Buyer. Each shipment will constitute a separate sale, and Buyer shall pay for the units shipped whether such shipment is in whole or partial fulfillment of Buyer's Order.

4. Non-Delivery. The quantity of any installment of Naturs Products as recorded by Seller on dispatch from Seller's place of business is conclusive evidence of the quantity received by Buyer on delivery unless Buyer can provide conclusive evidence proving the contrary. Seller shall not be liable for any non-delivery of Naturs Products (even if caused by Seller's negligence) unless Buyer gives written notice to Seller of the non-delivery within 5 days of the date when the Naturs Products would in the ordinary course of events have been received. Any liability of Seller for non-delivery of the Naturs Products shall be limited to replacing the Naturs Products within a reasonable time or adjusting the invoice respecting such Naturs Products to reflect the actual quantity delivered.

5. Shipping Terms. Delivery shall be made FOB Seller’s location of 263 Industrial Drive, Suite B, Hillsdale, Michigan 49242, or such other location as Seller may specify in writing to Buyer (“Seller’s Location”).

6. Title and Risk of Loss. Title to Naturs Products shipped under any Order and risk of loss or damage passes to Buyer upon delivery to the carrier.

7. Inspection and Rejection of Nonconforming Naturs Products.  

(a) Buyer shall inspect the Naturs Products within three days of receipt (“Inspection Period”). Buyer will be deemed to have accepted the Naturs Products unless it notifies Seller in writing of any Nonconforming Naturs Products during the Inspection Period and furnishes such written evidence or other documentation as required by Seller. “Nonconforming Naturs Products” means only the following: (i) product shipped is different than identified in the Order; or (ii) product's label or packaging incorrectly identifies its contents.

(b) If Buyer notifies Seller of any Nonconforming Naturs Products during the Inspection Period, Seller shall, in its sole discretion, (i) replace such Nonconforming Naturs Products with conforming Naturs Products, or (ii) credit or refund the price for such Nonconforming Naturs Products, together with any reasonable shipping and handling expenses incurred by Buyer in connection therewith. 

(c) Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the remedies set forth in this Section are Buyer's exclusive remedies for the delivery of Nonconforming Naturs Products. Except as provided under this Section, all sales of Naturs Products to Buyer are made on a one-way basis and Buyer has no right to return Naturs Products purchased under these Terms to Seller.

8. Price. 

(a) Buyer shall purchase the Naturs Products from Seller at the prices (the "Prices") set forth in Seller's purchase order form or pursuant to Seller’s written notice. If the Prices should be increased by Seller, Seller will provide Buyer with 30 days’ notice of such price increase.

(b) All Prices are exclusive of all sales, use, and excise taxes, and any other similar taxes, duties, and charges of any kind imposed by any foreign or domestic governmental authority on any amounts payable by Buyer.

Buyer shall reimburse Seller for all costs incurred in collecting any late payments, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees.
