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. 
 
LIMITED WARRANTY: Seller warrants that the goods will be free of defects in materials and workmanship as follows: Furniture style (wood) wine cabinets 
made in the U.S.: all cooling unit parts for a period of 5 (five) years; cabinetry and labor (uninstalled) for a period of 12 (twelve) months from date of sale. 
For the metal cabinet wine units: parts and labor for cooling system and cabinetry for a period of 12 (twelve) months from date of sale. Thermoelectric 
Units: 90 (ninety) days from the date of sale (including Wine Coolers, Beer Dispensers, Humidor, Portofino Wood Cellars, and Refrigerators). Wine-Mate 
Split Systems and installed products are parts only for 1 year, no labor. Other Wine-Mate Cooling Systems are 5 years parts, 1 year labor. Wine 
Accessories and Racking Systems are not warranted. There is no warranty on parts purchased separately. Removal and re-installation of unit is not 
included in warranted labor. Purchaser’s exclusive remedy is limited, at Seller’s option; to repair or replace defective part[s] with either new or factory 
reconditioned part[s]. Purchaser is responsible for shipping the unit pre-paid to designated facility and Seller will pay return shipping charges in the 
continental United States for items repaired under warranty within 12 (twelve) months from date of sale. Since the natural variation in texture, density, grain, 
color, tone and shade of wood is unavoidable; Seller does not guarantee the texture, color, tone or shade of the wood: nor does seller guarantee the 
colorfastness of wood or against peeling, chipping, cracking or scratching. Note: Unfinished wood is subject to warping; all wood surfaces must be sealed 
before placing cellar into service. Improper placement of the unit will void the warranty. By Vinotemp in writing, any third party repair facility must be pre-
approved 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 responsible for any damages caused to 
Purchaser's property resulting from the good. This limited warranty applies only inside the Continental US. (Alaska, Puerto Rico and Hawaii are not 
warranted.) 
 
For Non-New Units (Scratch & Dent/Refurbished/Floor Models), warranty for compressor units is 90 days from your dated invoice and 30 days for 
thermoelectric units (parts for function only, not cosmetic defects). These units are refurbished and sold as is; Purchaser assumes risks to the quality and 
performance of goods and assumes the costs of all necessary service or repair not covered herein. 
 
For Element Grills (via Element Products LLC), grills have a 1 year comprehensive parts warranty on entire product. Three years limited parts warranty 
covering the stainless burner and a thirty day limited parts warranty on grill accessories. If grill is defective and unused plus all packaging and parts are 
intact, we will either replace the grill or provide service to repair the grill. Returned product must accompany all original packaging and parts and is subject 
to our 35% restocking fee (and freight both ways). With Wine-Mate products, if the customer calls and the product is “defective”, you must obtain a letter 
from your qualified refrigeration technician at the customers cost, to verify that the unit was installed properly, with proper ventilation and the unit is truly 
malfunctioning due 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 relating to these 
terms and conditions or to the goods sold generally, Purchaser must first file a written claim with Seller within ten days of 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 Terms and 
Conditions can only be modified in writing, signed by both Purchaser and Seller. 7/13
