STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SALE

 

  1. Definitions

1.1.     In these conditions, “Rubicon” shall mean Rubicon Publishing Inc. of 2040 Speers Road, Oakville, Ontario L6L 2X8 or its duly appointed agent; “Purchaser” shall mean the original purchaser of Goods from RUBICON; and “Goods” shall mean the books, products, services, or other articles sold by RUBICON.

 

  1. General

2.1.     All sales by RUBICON to Purchaser are governed by and subject to these Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale, as amended from time to time by RUBICON. These Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale, along with any relevant invoice, purchase order, or other such agreement between RUBICON and Purchaser, collectively form a binding agreement between RUBICON and Purchaser. Any deviations from these Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale are binding and enforceable against RUBICON only if made in writing and signed by an authorized officer of RUBICON. RUBICON rejects any terms or conditions contained in Purchaser’s purchase order or other documents that are in conflict or inconsistent with these Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale and any such terms and conditions shall be without force or effect. If Purchaser has not otherwise agreed to these terms, Purchaser’s acceptance of delivery of, or full or partial payment for, the Goods will constitute Purchaser’s acceptance of these Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale.

2.2.     All Goods are sold firm, unless otherwise agreed upon in writing, and are subject to the condition that they shall not, by way of trade or otherwise, be lent, resold, hired out, or otherwise circulated in any form of binding or cover other than that in which they are published, without RUBICON’s prior consent, and such lending, reselling, hiring out, or other circulation shall have all terms and conditions set out herein imposed on the subsequent purchaser.

2.3.     RUBICON is not bound by an order until accepted by RUBICON in writing or by shipping the Goods to Purchaser. RUBICON may elect not to accept an order if, in its judgment, RUBICON will be unable to meet the requested delivery date or to fill the requested quantity or type of products ordered. RUBICON may also elect not to accept an order in its sole discretion. There shall not be implied into the terms of these Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale, or any related document, any continuing obligation to supply Purchaser after fulfillment of each order, and no notice period shall be required to be given by RUBICON should RUBICON decide to cease selling to Purchaser.

2.4.     Any reference in these Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale to any provision of a statute shall be confirmed as a reference to that provision as amended, re-enacted, or extended.

 

  1. Publication Date

3.1.     New books/titles sold by RUBICON to Purchaser shall not be sold by Purchaser before the advised publication date.

 

  1. Prices

4.1.     Prices are subject to alteration by RUBICON at any time up to and including the date of invoice. Sales taxes will be charged additionally at the rate current at the date of invoice on all sales where RUBICON must account for sales tax.

  1. Discount and Credit Terms

5.1.     All Goods are supplied subject to the discount, credit terms, and credit limits separately agreed to by RUBICON and Purchaser and in force at the date of the invoice.

6.1.     RUBICON will make every effort to supply the exact quantities of Goods ordered but reserves the right where necessary to vary the quantities, for example, in cases of special production or to conform to printers pack quantities. RUBICON may deliver against any order hereunder up to five percent (5%) in excess or an unlimited percentage in deficiency of the amount specified for the delivery in question, provided that as regards such excess or deficiency, RUBICON shall make a corresponding adjustment in the amount payable by Purchaser, who shall accept and pay for the actual quantity supplied. Unless Purchaser has specifically requested otherwise, Goods that RUBICON is unable to supply immediately will be dispatched to Purchaser when available without further notice to Purchaser.

6.2.     Where Purchaser does not specify which edition of a book or other product is required and there is more than one, RUBICON will normally supply the cheapest available. No variation by RUBICON in the manufacture or design of any Goods will constitute a breach of contract or impose any liability upon RUBICON.

 

  1. Physical Delivery

7.1.     For qualifying orders, Goods will be delivered to Purchaser’s usual place of business (or another location within Canada as arranged with Purchaser), and Purchaser will be billed for freight.

7.2.2.  RUBICON may deliver all of the Goods at one time or in portions from time to time. Each delivery of any part of an order will be deemed to constitute a separate, enforceable contract to which these Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale will apply. If Purchaser causes or requests a delay in the manufacture or delivery of any Goods, Purchaser shall reimburse RUBICON for all resulting damages, including without limitation payment of reasonable storage expenses for the Goods during the period of delay or interruption.
