These
terms and conditions of sale constitute
a binding contract between Customer and
Shor Fabrics. Customer accepts
these terms and conditions of sale by
making a purchase, placing an order or
otherwise shopping on Shor Fabrics's
Website (the "Site"). These
terms and conditions of sale are subject
to change without prior notice, except
that the terms and conditions of sale
posted on the Site at the time Customer
initially places or modifies an order
will govern the order in question.
These terms and conditions of sale constitute
the entire agreement between Customer
and Shor Fabrics relating to the
terms and conditions of sale of products
and services on the Site. Customer consents
to receiving electronic records, which
may be provided via a Web browser or e-mail
application connected to the Internet;
individual consumers may withdraw consent
to receiving electronic records or have
the record provided in non-electronic
form by contacting Shor Fabrics.
Customer may issue a purchase order for
administrative purposes only. Additional
or different terms and conditions contained
in any such purchase order will be null
and void. Customer agrees that the terms
and conditions of sale contained herein
and in Shor Fabrics’s invoice
or other documentation will control. No
course of prior dealings between the parties
and no usage of trade will be relevant
to determine the meaning of these terms
and conditions of sale or any purchase
order or invoice related thereto.
Warranties
Customer understands that Shor Fabrics
is not the manufacturer of the products
purchased by Customer hereunder and the
only warranties offered are those of the
manufacturer, not Shor Fabrics.
In purchasing the products, Customer is
relying on the manufacturer’s specifications
only and is not relying on any statements,
specifications in brochures, photographs
or other illustrations representing the
products that may be provided by Shor Fabrics. In connection with services,
neither affiliates of Shor Fabrics
nor third party service providers are
agents of Shor Fabrics and Shor Fabrics has no obligation or liability
arising from any services performed by
or any warranty, if any, made by, such
service providers. Shor Fabrics
and its affiliates expressly disclaim
all warranties either express or implied,
related to products sold or services provided
by third parties or affiliates of Shor Fabrics, including, without limitation,
any warranty or merchantability or fitness
for a particular purpose. This disclaimer
does not affect the terms of the manufacturer's
warranty, if any.
Pricing Information
All pricing is subject to change. Shor Fabrics reserves the right to make
adjustments to pricing, products and service
offerings for reasons including, but not
limited to, changing market conditions,
product discontinuation, product unavailability,
manufacturer price changes and errors
in advertisements. All orders are subject
to product availability. Therefore, Shor Fabrics cannot guarantee that it
will be able to fulfill Customer’s
orders.
Orders, Payment
Terms, Interest and Taxes
Orders are not binding upon Shor Fabrics
unless accepted (credit card transactions
processed on the site DO NOT constitute
acceptance of an order.) by Shor Fabrics
and we reserve the right to cancel any
order for any reason. Terms of payment
are within Shor Fabrics's sole
discretion. Invoices are due and payable
within the time period specified on the
invoice, measured from the date of invoice.
Shor Fabrics may invoice parts
of an order separately. Customer agrees
to pay interest on all past-due sums at
the lower of one and one-half percent
(1 1/2%) per month or at the highest rate
allowed by law. Customer is responsible
for, and will indemnify and hold Shor Fabrics harmless from, any applicable
sales, use or other taxes associated with
the order. Customer must claim any exemption
from tax at the time of purchase and provide
the necessary supporting documentation.
Any sales, use or other applicable tax
is based on the location to which the
order is shipped. In the event of a payment
default, Customer will be responsible
for all of Shor Fabrics’s
costs of collection, including court costs,
filing fees and attorney’s fees.
If an order is not paid within the 24
hour window the order will become null
and void.
Third Party Services
Customer acknowledges and agrees that,
in some instances, Shor Fabrics
and its affiliates are resellers of services
and are not the provider of those products
and services. In those cases, the third
party service provider is the only party
responsible for providing services to
Customer. In those cases, Customer will
look solely to the third party service
provider for any loss, claims or damages
arising from or relating to the purchase
or provision of such services. Customer
hereby releases Shor Fabrics and
its affiliates from any and all claims
arising from or relating to the purchase
or provision of any such services by third
party service providers. Services may
be subject to tax. All amounts, including
taxes, associated with third party services
are being collected by Shor Fabrics
on behalf of Shor Fabrics solely
in the capacity as an independent sales
agent.
Limitation of
Liability
Neither Shor Fabrics nor its affiliates
will be liable for lost profits, loss
of business or other consequential, special,
indirect or punitive damages, even if
advised of the possibility of such damages,
or for any claim by any third part. Neither
Shor Fabrics not its affiliates
will be liable for products not being
available for use or for lost or corrupted
data or software or the provision of services
by third parties. Customer agrees that
for any liability related to the purchase
of products or services provided directly
by Shor Fabrics or its affiliates,
neither Shor Fabrics nor its affiliates
are liable or responsible for any amount
of damages above the dollar amount paid
by Customer for the product(s) or service(s)
giving rise to the claim.
Shor Fabrics will not be responsible
for any delays in delivery which result
from any circumstances beyond its control,
including without limitation, product
unavailability, carrier delays, delays
due to fire, severe weather conditions,
failure of power, labor problems, acts
of war, terrorism, general insurrection,
acts of God or acts of any government
or agency.
Arbitration
Any claim, dispute, or controversy (whether
in contract, tort or otherwise, whether
preexisting, present or future, and including
statutory, common law, intentional tort
and equitable claims) arising from or
relating to the products or services sold
pursuant to these terms and conditions
of sale, the interpretation or application
of these terms and conditions of sale
or the breach, termination or validity
thereof, the relationships which result
from these terms and conditions of sale
(including, to the full extent permitted
by applicable law, relationships with
third parties who are not signatories
hereto), or Shor Fabrics's advertising
and marketing (collectively, a “Claim”)
will be resolved, upon the election of
Shor Fabrics, customer or third parties
involved, exclusively and finally by binding
arbitration. If arbitration is chosen,
it will be conducted pursuant to the Rules
of the American Arbitration Association,
with offices in New York, NY. If arbitration
is chosen by any party with respect to
a Claim, neither Shor Fabrics nor Customer
will have the right to litigate that Claim
in court or to have a jury trial on that
Claim or to engage in pre-arbitration
discovery, except as provided for in the
applicable arbitration rules or by agreement
of the parties. Further, Customer will
not have the right to participate as a
representative or member of any class
of claimants pertaining to any Claim.
Notwithstanding any choice of law provision
included in these terms and conditions
of sale, this arbitration agreement is
subject to the Federal Arbitration Act
(9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16). The arbitration
will take place in New York, NY. Any court
having jurisdiction may enter judgment
on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s).
Each party will bear its own cost of any
legal representation, discovery or research
required to complete arbitration. The
existence or results of any arbitration
will be treated as confidential. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein,
all matters pertaining to the collection
of amounts due to Shor Fabrics arising
out of sales hereunder will be exclusively
litigated in court rather than through
arbitration.
