Any provisions contained in any document issued by Buyer are expressly rejected and if these Terms and Conditions of Sale differ from the terms of Buyer’s offer, this document shall be construed as a counteroffer and shall not be effective as an acceptance of Buyer’s document. Buyer’s receipt of the ordered products (the “Products”) from a company belonging to the Ham-Let Group (the “Seller”) or its agents will constitute Buyer’s acceptance of these Terms and Conditions of Sale. The Order and these Terms and Conditions of Sale are together the complete and exclusive statement of the contract between Seller and Buyer with respect to Buyer's purchase of the Products unless otherwise agreed in writing. No waiver, consent, modification, amendment, or change of the terms contained herein shall be binding unless in writing and signed by Seller and Buyer. Seller's failure to object to terms contained in any subsequent communication from Buyer will not be a waiver or modification of the terms set forth herein.

All prices published by Seller or quoted by Seller’s representative may be changed at any time without notice. All prices quoted by Seller or Seller’s representatives are valid for thirty (30) days, unless otherwise stated in writing.
