Terms and Conditions

Exclusive Governing Provisions


The sale of all products by Echo Engineering & Production Supplies, Inc. (“Echo”) to Purchaser is subject to and governed exclusively by these terms and conditions of sale (the “Conditions”). Echo’s acceptance of any order or other offers by Purchaser (whether written, telephonic, electronic, or otherwise) for any products is expressly made conditional on Purchaser’s assent to these Conditions. Purchaser’s assent shall be deemed given on the earlier of (i) written acceptance of these Conditions, or (ii) failure to reject these Conditions in writing by specifically naming and rejecting these Conditions in their entirety within seven (7) days after receipt of these Conditions as contained, referenced, or incorporated in a Seller acknowledgment, bill of lading, invoice or any other writing (including, without limitation, electronic correspondence).


These Conditions, together with the Echo acknowledgment, bill of lading, invoice or other writing (including electronic correspondence) from Echo that accompanies, contains, incorporates or references these Conditions, comprise the entire agreement between the parties, and supersede all prior or contemporaneous understandings, agreements, negotiations, representations and warranties, and communications, both written and oral.


These Conditions prevail over any of Purchaser's general terms and conditions of purchase regardless of whether or when Purchaser has submitted its purchase order or such terms. No additional or different conditions, whether contained in a purchase order or any other communication from Purchaser (whether written or oral and whether previously given or later asserted), shall be binding on Echo unless specifically agreed to in writing by an executive officer of Echo. The failure of Echo to object to such additional or different conditions shall not be a waiver of these Conditions or acceptance of such additional or different conditions. Fulfillment of Purchaser’s order does not constitute acceptance of any of Purchaser’s terms and conditions and does not serve to modify or amend these Conditions. Purchaser’s modification or amendment of, or addition to, these Conditions or any order accepted by Echo shall not bind Echo unless such modification, amendment, or addition is in writing and signed by an executive officer of Echo.
