Warranty and Disclaimer
Except as specified herein, MSC warrants that any goods sold hereunder will be free from defects in workmanship and materials for one (1) year. This warranty does not apply to damage or breakage resulting from misuse, accidents, dramatic temperature variation, abuse, neglect, mishandling or wear and tear resulting from normal use. Defective products will be replaced within the normal production time period required to reorder and manufacture the same product.
Furniture: Many wood and metal finishes are applied by hand and may vary in color, tone and character. While MSC will make every effort to match a finish, no guarantee can be made of an exact match. MSC does not guarantee finishes against fading and oxidizing. Variations in color and veining are inherent in stone and wood and considered to be part of the natural beauty. Furniture is handmade, and therefore is subject to slight variations.
Textiles: MSC does not guarantee fabrics, dyed or natural, from fading. This warranty does not apply to COM products or other materials applied to MSC products. The suitability of a fabric or leather for any use is entirely at the discretion of the purchaser. Purchaser is responsible for all information related to required testing and treatment for any fabrics purchased. Requirements may vary by application and jurisdiction. The foregoing warranty is in lieu of and excludes all other warranties not expressly set forth herein, whether express or implied, by operation of law or otherwise, including but not limited to any implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose.
Limitation of Remedies
MSC shall not be liable for incidental or consequential losses, damages or expenses, directly or indirectly arising from the sale, handling or use of the goods, or from any other cause with respect to the goods or this agreement, whether such claim is based upon breach of contract, breach of warranty, strict liability in tort, negligence or any other legal theory. MSC’s total liability hereunder in any case is expressly limited to repair or replace (in the form originally ordered), at MSC's election, the goods not complying with this agreement, or to the repayment of, or crediting Buyer with, an amount equal to the purchase price of such affected goods. The remedy provided for above is Buyer's sole remedy for any failure of MSC to comply with its obligations regarding the workmanship of its products. MSC’s total liability to Buyer shall not exceed the price of the product or part on which such liability is based. Any claim by buyer with reference to the goods sold hereunder for any cause shall be deemed waived by the Buyer unless submitted to MSC in writing to info@marsilver.com within forty-eight (48) hours from the date the Buyer discovered, or should have discovered, any claimed breach.
Remedies Upon Default
MSC requires payment for any shipment hereunder in advance. If Buyer fails to make payment in accordance with the terms of this agreement or otherwise fails to comply with any provision hereof, MSC may, at its option, cancel any unshipped portion of this order, retain the goods and declare a forfeiture of the deposit as liquidated damages.
Exclusions
All of MSC’s drawings, descriptive matter, weights, dimensions, descriptions and illustrations contained in the MSC’s catalogs, on-line store, prices lists, or advertisements are close approximations only and intended to give a general description of the goods and shall not form part of this agreement. Furniture is handmade, and therefore is subject to slight variations. All sizes as indicated in the price list are within 1/2" variance.
Waiver
Waiver by MSC of any breach of these terms and conditions shall not be construed as a waiver of any other breach, and failure to exercise any right arising from any default hereunder shall not be deemed a waiver of such right at any subsequent time. Any such waiver must be in writing and signed by an officer of MSC.
