ORDER ACCEPTANCE & ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
- All orders should be e-mailed, mailed, or faxed in hard copy purchase order form. ErgoGenesis may accept information for an order via telephone as a service to our customers; however, production will not begin until a purchase order form marked confirmation has been received by fax, mail, or special carrier.
- Confirming purchase orders that are not clearly and specifically marked CONFIRMATION is the responsibility of the customer if they are produced as duplicate orders.
- If acknowledgment or receipt of an order has not been received within three (3) working days, the customer should call the Customer Service Department for confirmation.
- Orders received after 12:00 PM Central Time will be entered on the following business day.
- All orders will be acknowledged via written acknowledgment by fax and will be accepted, manufactured, and invoiced based on the information and terms stated. If any discrepancies are found, notify ErgoGenesis immediately.

DELIVERY

- In most cases, UPS Ground is selected with common carriers utilized when quantities or dimensions justify.
- Freight quotes should be obtained from ErgoGenesis’ Shipping Department, as freight prices may fluctuate at any time according to price increases instituted by freight companies. Freight quotes will be good for 30 days from the date of the quote.
CLAIMS
- It is the customer’s responsibility (not necessarily the consignee) to notify ErgoGenesis in writing of any factory defects, shortages, or errors. Such notification should occur within five (5) days of receipt of the merchandise. Failure to make any claims against ErgoGenesis within five (5) days will constitute acceptance of merchandise and waiver of any defects, shortages, or errors that may be ascertained upon inspection.
- ErgoGenesis is not responsible for damages incurred in transit or storage. It is the consignee’s responsibility, by law, to examine merchandise upon receipt, note any damages on the carrier’s bill, and file an appropriate damage claim. Concealed damage should be reported in writing within 48 hours to the carrier. The responsibility of ErgoGenesis ceases once the carrier signs the bill of lading as having received the merchandise in good condition.
