Preturile ofertate de MRG sunt stabilite in baza conditiei de livrare – „EXW” ("ex works" - conform definitiei stipulate in INCOTERMS 2010), de la sediul MRG ori locul indicat de MRG, cu exceptia cazurilor in care se stipuleaza altfel in oferta MRG sau partile, in scris, au convenit altfel.

Orice factura remisa Cumparatorului, pe baza datelor comunicate de catre Cumparator, prin posta electronica, nerefuzata justificat si in scris de catre Cumparator, intr-un termen de cel mult 2 zile de la remitere, se considera acceptata in baza prezentului document, Cumparatorul intelegand si acceptand ca nu este necesara vreo confirmare sau semnare a sa pentru recunoasterea si acceptarea facturii. Cu exceptia situatiei in care s-a convenit altfel, Cumparatorul va achita pretul bunurilor sau serviciilor comandate in avans, cu cel putin 48 de ore de la data stabilita pentru preluarea comenzii acceptate de catre MRG.

In cazul in care Cumparatorul nu isi indeplineste, partial sau total obligatiile de plata la termenele stabilite, MRG are dreptul sa opteze pentru una sau ambele variante de mai jos:

• sa solicite plata de penalitati de 0,20% pe zi de intarziere, asupra sumei neachitate de catre Cumparator la termenul de plata asumat, valoarea penalitatilor putand depasi cuantumul debitului principal;

• sa suspende sau sa anuleze livrarea/prestarea serviciului in curs si cele ulterioare catre Cumparator, cu solicitarea de despagubiri in valoare egala cu valoarea bunurilor/serviciilor comandate, la care se vor adauga pierderile suferite de catre MRG, datorita nerespectarii obligatiilor asumate de catre Cumparator;

V. Livrarea bunurilor / prestarea serviciilor

MRG va efectua livrarea /prestarea catre Cumparator, in termen de 3 (trei) zile lucratoare de la data trimiterii de catre MRG a notificarii scrise catre Cumparator (prin fax, e-mail, scrisoare etc.) prin care Cumparatorul este anuntat asupra faptului ca bunurile/serviciile respective sunt pregatite pentru a fi ridicate (conditie de livrare EXW) sau prestate. Livrarea bunurilor „ex works” reprezinta regula. Livrarea/prestarea va fi considerata efectuata in termen de maximum sapte zile calendaristice, dupa ce MRG a notificat Cumparatorul asupra faptului ca bunurile/serviciile respective sunt pregatite pentru a fi ridicate/prestate. In cazul in care, la implinirea celui din urma termen, Cumparatorul nu ridica bunurile / receptioneaza serviciile prestate, atunci acesta va fi obligat la plata serviciului de depozitare si manevrare, in cuantum de 1% pe zi din valoarea marfii depozitate / serviciului prestat, cu exceptia cazului in care MRG aproba alte conditii.

In cazul in care confirmarea de livrare/prestare emisa de MRG stipuleaza o data fixa pentru livrarea sau prestarea serviciilor, iar MRG nu-si indeplineste obligatia asumata la termenul prevazut, Cumparatorul va notifica in scris MRG despre stabilirea unui nou termen de livrare sau prestare, a carui nerespectare atrage dreptul Cumparatorului la rezilierea comenzii lansate. Cumparatorul poate revendica daune- interese numai in cazul in care MRG, cu rea-credinta, nu si-a indeplinit obligatiile contractuale, iar valoarea acestora nu poate depasi 10% din valoarea bunurilor livrate sau a serviciilor prestate si nu mai mult de 5.000 Euro. Partile sunt de acord ca orice fel de solicitare cu privire la daune-interese sa se prescrie intr-o perioada de un an de la livrarea produselor si sase luni de la efectuarea serviciilor.

In cazul in care Cumparatorul nu accepta livrarea/prestarea la termenul stabilit, acesta se obliga sa achite MRG toate cheltuielile facute pana la acel moment, precum si daune-interese constand din pierderea suferita de MRG. MRG va lua toate masurile de depozitare corespunzatoare a bunurilor pe riscul si cheltuiala Cumparatorului. La cererea Cumparatorului, MRG va incheia contracte de asigurare pentru produsele depozitate, pe cheltuiala Cumparatorului.
