TERMS OF SALE AND WARRANTY 

 

Vinotemp International (“Seller”) and the person or entity that acquires these goods from Seller (“Purchaser”) hereby fully agree to the 
following terms and conditions of the sale: Shipping fees are the responsibility of the Purchaser whether freight prepaid or freight collect. 
Seller assumes no responsibility for the goods sold to the Purchaser once the goods have left the Seller’s premises, including, but not limited 

to, late delivery by the moving carrier, or for events caused by any difficulty carrier incurs in attempting to fit the goods into the Purchaser’s 
place of business or residence due to the size of the goods or otherwise. Purchaser assumes all responsibility for delivery, payment of freight, 
access, measurement, installation, hook-up, wiring, moving and storage of the goods. The transportation of all goods is subject to the terms 

and conditions which the moving carrier imposes on Purchaser including, but not limited to, additional charges imposed per flight of stairs, 
and/or additional charges resulting from the carrier’s inability to safely and/or adequately use the building elevator to lift the goods to an 
upper floor. Any claim for damages incurred during shipment by the carrier of the goods are insured and handled directly with the carrier and 

must be noted at time of delivery. Any damages due to manufacture defects will be handled directly with Vinotemp International, subject to 
the limited warranty. 
 

All sales are final, and unless authorized in writing by the Seller, Purchaser may not return the goods, under any circumstance. If Purchaser 
refuses to accept the goods, under any circumstance, the Purchaser is liable for the return and cost of freight both ways, and if Seller does 
take back the goods, there will be a restocking/service fee that is 35% of the purchase price of the goods. (Product must be in original 

packaging). Built-to-Order products (including Cabinets, Racking, and Accessories) are non-returnable. Purchaser must notify Seller of non-
conforming goods within four days of delivery, after which time all goods are deemed accepted. If an order has been placed and production 
has started, cancellation of your order will be a 15% charge. If Purchaser tenders payment with a check that has insufficient funds (NSF), or 

stops payment on a check or credit card for any reason, Purchaser agrees to pay for all costs associated with the Seller’s collection or 
litigation of such a claim, including without limitation extra damages, court costs and attorneys’ fees. Finance charges begin the date of 
invoice. Collection fees plus NSF fee of $50 will be added to your invoice, which you agree to promptly pay. Title to the goods does not pass 

until payment is received in full by Seller and Seller retains a security interest in the goods until they are paid for in full. Statute of limitations 
must be handled in arbitration in the County of Los Angeles. Purchaser is liable for any arbitration fees, including fees incurred due to credit 
card company arbitration. If the item is damaged by the freight company, Purchaser may cancel the order only by paying for freight costs 

both ways and restocking fee.

to designated facility and Seller will pay return shipping charges in the continental United States for items repaired under warranty within 12

chipping, cracking or scratching. Note: Unfinished wood is subject to warping; all wood surfaces must be sealed before placing cellar into

before providing parts free of charge. This limited warranty does not cover damage due to such things as accident, misuse, abuse, 

mishandling, neglect, acts of God, fires, earthquakes, floods, high winds, government, war, riot or labor trouble, strikes, lockouts, delay of 
carrier, unauthorized repair, or any other cause beyond the control of the Seller, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing. Seller is not

to manufacture defect. 
 
Purchaser understands and acknowledges that the goods sold here are wine cellars, cigar humidors, and/or other similar units which house 

wine or cigars. Purchaser assumes all risk of using these units, including risk of spoilage, humidity variations, temperature variations, leaks, 
fire, water damage, mold, mildew, dryness and similar and any other perils that might occur.  
Seller is not responsible for incidental or consequential damages, and there are no warranties, expressed or implied, which extend beyond the 

Limited Warranty described above. Warranty and liability are non-transferable. The implied warranties of merchantability and of fitness for a 
particular purpose are hereby expressly disclaimed. Some states do not allow the exclusion of incidental or consequential damages, or a 
waiver of the implied warranties of fitness and/or merchantability, so the above limitations may not apply to you. This warranty gives you 

specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state. Seller disclaims any indemnification for claims of 
infringement of any intellectual property of protectable nature. In the event of any dispute between Seller and Purchaser arising out of or

the occurrence giving rise to the claim and wait an additional thirty days for a response before initiating any legal action. The sale and all 
terms are subject to California law. Any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to these terms and conditions or to the goods sold generally 
shall be brought solely and exclusively in the County of Los Angeles. In no event may Purchaser initiate any legal proceeding more than six 

months after the occurrence of the event giving rise to the dispute. 
 
The above terms and conditions are the only ones governing this transaction and Seller makes no oral representations of any kind. These
