INTRODUCTION
The Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) contained herein shall apply to all quotations and offers made by and purchase orders accepted by RICMAS International Pte. Ltd. (“RICMAS”). These Terms apply to all sales made by RICMAS except to the extent the Terms conflict with an existing individual customer contract where special terms and conditions (signed by RICMAS and Buyer) may take precedence over this document. These Terms apply in lieu of any course of dealing between the parties or usage of trade in the industry. These Terms may in some instances conflict with other terms and conditions referenced to. In such case, the Terms contained herein shall govern, and acceptance of Buyer’s order is conditioned upon Buyer’s acceptance of the terms and conditions herein, irrespective of whether the Buyer accepts these conditions by a written acknowledgement, by implication, or acceptance and payment of products ordered hereunder. RICMAS’s failure to object to provisions contained in any communication from Buyer shall not be deemed a waiver of the provisions herein. Any changes in the Terms contained herein must specifically be agreed to in writing signed by a Director of RICMAS before becoming binding on either party.
OTHER CONDITIONS
Prices are subject to change without notice to Buyer. Any order that can be cancelled or rescheduled is subject to a price change immediately.
