7. Reservation of title
- 7.1 The title to the goods delivered shall not be transferred to the Buyer until MELTON has received cash payment of the entire outstanding amount.
- 7.2 The Buyer shall be obliged to inform any third party asserting a right to the goods delivered, irrespective of the nature of this right, of the existence of the reservation of title and to inform MELTON hereof immediately.
8. Complaints and duty of inspection
- 8.1 The Buyer shall immediately upon receipt and before using or reselling the goods inspect the goods carefully.
- 8.2 In case the Buyer ascertains that the goods are defective, he shall without undue delay immediately after the defect has been established inform MELTON hereof in writing.
9. Special limitation of liability
- 9.1 In case of complaints of defects, MELTON shall be entitled at its own discretion and within reasonable time to replace the goods (i.e. to deliver new goods corresponding to the goods originally agreed upon) or to remedy the defect. Should MELTON choose to use its right to remedy the defect or replace the goods, the Buyer shall not be entitled to rescind the purchase, claim damages or a pro rata reduction of the purchase price or any other compensation as a consequence of the defect. Moreover, MELTON shall not be liable for any delay resulting from remedying the defects or replacing the goods.
10. Returned goods
- 10.1 Sold goods shall only be returned after prior written agreement.
11. Trade samples and product changes
- 11.1 Information on goods and the dimensions, colour and weight, capacity, patterns, technical data, etc. of the trade samples included in catalogues, brochures, drawings or shown on MELTON's website or the like is approximate unless otherwise indicated in MELTON's order confirmation and does not guarantee the properties of the products. It must be expected that deviations in colours and patterns may occur, which is why MELTON shall not be liable for such deviations unless the Buyer is able to document that the deviations are material and that the colour/pattern was an important precondition for the Buyer's conclusion of the agreement.
12. Venue and applicable law
- 12.1 Any dispute between MELTON and the Buyer shall be settled by the Court in Esbjerg, Denmark, and be governed by Danish law.
- 12.2 In case the Buyer is domiciled outside of Denmark, the Convention on Contracts for the International Sales of Goods shall, however, not apply.
