TERMS & POLICIES

Payment
Subject to the approval of the Seller’s Credit Department, terms of payment shall be net cash 10 days from the date of invoice. Balances outstanding after 30 days will be charged 2% per month (24% per annum). If collection action on overdue accounts becomes necessary, all costs, including all reasonable attorney’s fees and legal/court fees, will be paid by the buyer.

Prices
All prices are subject to change without notice and are subject to Seller’s prices at time of shipment. Prices quoted are in U.S. Dollars. On shipment to Canada, any applicable duty and customs entry charges are the responsibility of the buyer. All special quote/sale prices remaining unpaid after thirty (30) days from the date of invoice will revert to regular published prices.

Fuel Surcharge
Our traffic manager and team members do a tremendous job negotiating with freight carriers for the best possible price, service and value. It is from their hard work we are able to provide the most liberal and service sensitive freight policy in our field. It is published, and in many cases, adhered to for long periods of time. However, during these periods of time it has become increasingly popular for the carriers to implement a fuel surcharge whenever there is movement in the price of diesel. These additional charges can be significant, and for this reason, we reserve the right to charge upwards of 2%, without notice, of invoice value on all prepaid shipments.

Minimum Charge
Minimum order is $100.00 net. On orders less than the minimum there will be a $20.00 service fee.

Back Orders
Freight will not be allowed on back orders unless they constitute a prepaid shipment in themselves. All means of transportation and routing shall be subject to the control of the seller.

Returns
Wallingford’s Inc.® will not accept any returned goods unless authorized in advance and accompanied by a signed and numbered Returned Goods Authorization Form. Unauthorized shipments will be returned at the sender’s expense. Authorization must be obtained from the Customer Service Department in Oakland, ME. All authorized goods must be sent prepaid and are subject to a 20% restocking charge. Whereas BABAC® and Aquiline® can manufacture a wide range of tire chains, only the most popular sizes/styles are returnable.

Claims & Shortages
Wallingford’s Inc. is willing to assist you in collecting claims for loss or damage, however, we are not responsible for collection of claims or replacement of merchandise. All requests for assistance must be accompanied by a copy of the freight bill showing the shortage or damage and signed by the trucker. Always check the Packing List against the shipment prior to signing the Bill of Lading. Do not sign the Bill of Lading before confirming that all goods shipped were received. Never sign the bill of lading for piece count, carton count or pallet count. It is the Buyer's responsibility to validate the shipment against the Packing List. If a shipment has been signed and cleared without first being checked against the Packing List, there is little or nothing the Seller can do in the event of a claim.
