Plating Liability Statement
ALL WORK IS ACCEPTED SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS:
It is recognized that even after employing all the scientific methods known to us, hazards still remain in metal finishing. THEREFORE, OUR LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED TWICE THE AMOUNT OF OUR CHARGES FOR THE WORK DONE ON ANY MATERIAL (FIRST TO REIMBURSE FOR THE CHARGES AND SECOND TO COMPENSATE IN THE AMOUNT OF THE CHARGES), except by written agreement signed by Booth Electrosystems, Inc.
The customer, by contracting for metal finishing, agrees to accept the limits of liability as expressed in this Statement to the exclusion of any and all provisions as to liability on the customer’s own invoices, purchase orders or other documents. If the customer desires his own provisions as to liability to remain in force and effect, this must be agreed to in writing, signed by an officer of Booth Electrosystems, Inc. In such event, a higher charge will be made for our services.
No claims for shortage in weight or count will be entertained unless presented within five (5) working days after receipt of materials by customer. No claim will be allowed for pitting, solution entrapment or discoloration of material in treating except by prior written agreement, as above. Whenever we are given material with detailed instructions as to treatment, our responsibility shall end with the carrying out of those instructions. Failure by the customer to indicate plainly and correctly the kind of material (i.e., proper alloy designation) to be plated, shall cause an extra charge to be made to cover any additional expense incurred as a result thereof.
It shall be the duty of the customer to inspect the merchandise immediately upon its return, and in any event claims must be reported prior to the time that any further processing, assembling or any other work is undertaken.
OUR LIABILITY TO OUR CUSTOMERS SHALL CEASE ONCE ANY FURTHER PROCESSING, ASSEMBLING OR ANY OTHER WORK HAS BEEN UNDERTAKEN ON SAID MATERIAL.
No agent or representative is authorized to alter the above conditions, except in writing duly signed by Booth Electrosystems, Inc.
