Buyer shall be responsible for all such charges shipped outside of the state of Nevada.
5. Delivery and Lead Time. Buyer acknowledges that all lead times provided by Precision Formed Plastics are dependent upon the quantity and complexity of the order, including the need for custom tooling and Precision Formed Plastics’ production backlog, and are purely estimates that may change at Precisions Formed Plastics’ sole discretion. Unless otherwise noted, production lead times commence upon last receipt from Buyer of: (1) Fully executed PO or signed Seller’s proposal; (2) Pre-production or pre-shipment deposit if required; and (3) any approvals required from Buyer.

9. Re-Use Potential. The number of re-uses for each grade of formliner is purely an estimate and will vary depending on pattern configuration, proper handling and adherence to the Application Guide, and jobsite conditions.

Order changes initiated by the Buyer that result in more than one shipment or truckload may result in increased charges. Freight charges(not estimated freight) will be invoiced on the date of shipment and will be based on prevailing carrier rates at time of shipment, the required freight mode and the actual destination for the shipment. All shipping charges shall be the obligation of the Buyer and, if paid by the Seller, then set forth as a separate item on the Seller’s invoice.
