defective goods shall be returned to Seller for its inspection and approval. 
The basis of all claims for alleged defects in the goods not discoverable upon 
reasonable inspection thereof pursuant to paragraph 8 hereof must be fully 
explained in writing and received by Seller within thirty days after Buyer learns
