- Acceptance Governing Provisions: In these General Terms and Conditions (the “Conditions”) “we,” “us,” and “our” means BioMed Corporation or the BioMed affiliate that is processing this order or purchase of goods , and “you” and “your” means the person, company or other legal entity that orders or buys goods from us and in each case their respective successors and/or assigns. We are shipping these goods subject to these Conditions. You will be deemed to have assented to these Conditions unless you return the goods to us within 15 days after your receipt of the goods and this form. Our failure to object to provisions contained in any purchase order or other form or document from you shall not be construed as a waiver of these Conditions nor an acceptance of any such provision. These Conditions, including all writings incorporated herein by reference, any quotation issued to you by us, and those specific terms of a purchase order or other document that are either consistent with these Conditions or expressly agreed upon by us in writing, constitute the entire contract between us (the “Contract”), and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between us, whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter hereof. In the event of a conflict, a quotation takes precedence over these Conditions, and a written contract signed by both of us takes precedence over either. If one or more of these Conditions are held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining Conditions shall be unimpaired.

A restocking charge of 25% or $25 (whichever is greater) shall be charged on returns that are not the result of any error or fault of ours. Shipping charges will not be credited. Goods may not be returned for credit after 20 days after your receipt of the goods.
