Returned Goods When the use of this Agreement involves the purchase of goods, the following applies: Returned goods, when due to Contractor error (i.e., over-shipment, defective merchandise, unapproved substitution, etc.), shall be returned to the Contractor at the Contractor’s expense. The Contractor shall make arrangements to remove the returned goods from the Ordering Agency premises within seven (7) calendar days after notification. The Contractor shall not apply any restocking or other charges to the Ordering Agency. At the option of the Ordering Agency, replacement items may be accepted and will be shipped within seven (7) calendar days of notification. Failure of the Contractor to arrange for return of the items within the specified time will result in the items being deemed as abandoned property and the Ordering Agency will dispose of accordingly. For orders of custom manufactured items, the Contractor must provide a production sample of the item to the Ordering Agency for acceptance. The production sample must be identical to the item to be provided. The Ordering Agency will provide written acceptance of the item prior to the Contractor continuing with production. Once delivery and acceptance has been completed and the Ordering Agency determines for any reason that any remaining quantities will not be used, the agency may request the return of the custom manufactured items. Acceptance of the return of custom manufactured items will be at the option of the Contractor. Failure of the Contractor to provide a production sample and obtain written approval from the Ordering Agency will result in the Contractor bearing all responsibility and costs associated with the return of these goods. Returned goods of regular catalog stock merchandise, when due to agency error (i.e., over purchase, discontinued use, inventory reduction, etc.) will be accepted by the Contractor if notice is given by the Ordering Agency within six (6) months of delivery and acceptance. All items to be returned must be unused and in their original containers and in suitable condition for resale. Return of regular stock catalog merchandise, when delivery and acceptance exceed six (6) months will be at the option of the Contractor.
