Common use of Inspection and Acceptance of the Goods Clause in Contracts

Inspection and Acceptance of the Goods. 7.1 We will not be deemed to have accepted any Goods until we have had a reasonable time to inspect the Goods after delivery. Our signing of delivery receipts before inspection does not constitute acceptance of the Goods. 7.2 If upon inspection we determine that any Goods are Defective Goods, we may: (a) reject the Defective Goods by returning them to you; or (b) make good the Defective Goods and accept the Goods. 7.3 You agree to, at our option: (a) refund any payments made by us (including any freight charges) in respect of any Defective Goods that we reject; (b) make good the Defective Goods that we reject; or (c) reimburse us for any expenses we incur in making good any Defective Goods. 7.4 Any inspection, testing, acceptance or payment of some or all of the Goods does not in any way: (a) alter your obligations under the Contract; or (b) affect our rights to claim for any damage or loss we may suffer because of your breach of warranty or failure to fulfil any of your other obligations under the Contract. 7.5 If we accept any Goods from you which do not comply with the Contract, this decision does not: (a) bind us to accept future shipments or orders of Goods which do not comply with the Contract; or (b) affect your obligations in respect of the supply of Goods.
