Any terms or conditions in addition to or different from this document asserted by Buyer as applicable to this transaction, in a purchase order, on a web site, or otherwise incorporated by reference (including general or special conditions, plans, specifications, drawings, samples, or quality standard), are inapplicable and rejected by Seller. Buyer shall be deemed to have so assented unless Buyer notifies Seller to the contrary in writing within ten (10) days of receipt of this document. If for any reason Buyer should fail to accept these terms in writing, any conduct by Buyer which recognizes the existence of a contract pertaining to the subject matter hereof, including payment and/or acceptance of Products, shall constitute an acceptance by Buyer of this document and all of its Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale.

Unless otherwise specified by Seller, prices are for the specific quantity stated and do not include taxes nor charges for transportation, insurance, special packaging, or marking.

4. PAYMENT

(a) Payment will be made according to agreed upon terms: ACH, credit card, letter of credit, wire transfer, or check.
(b) Checks are accepted subject to collection and the date of collection shall be deemed the date of payment. Any check received from Buyer may be applied by Seller against any obligation owing by Buyer to Seller, under this or any other contract, regardless of any statement appearing on or referring to such check, without discharging Buyer's liability for any additional amounts owing by Buyer to Seller; and the acceptance by Seller of such check shall not constitute a waiver of Seller's right to pursue the collection of any remaining balance.
(c) Buyer agrees to pay the entire net amount of each invoice rendered by Seller pursuant to the terms of each such invoice without offset or deduction.

5. TERMS
(a) Standard payment terms require receipt of cash in advance of performance for all new accounts.

Application for credit may take up to 30 days to process and is subject to approval by Seller.
