Terms and Conditions of Sale

The following terms and conditions of sale constitute the sole and complete agreement between you (“Buyer”) and Ecommerce Concepts, LLC, “NationwideSafes.com”, “Nationwide Safes & Security”, “Nationwide Safes”), its successors and assigns (“Seller”) as well as third party service providers of Seller. This agreement replaces all prior oral and written understandings between Buyer and Seller. Any supplemental or contrary terms of Buyer are hereby rejected in their entirety.

  • Accuracy of Product Descriptions. Seller attempts to be as accurate as possible in its product descriptions. Despite these efforts, Seller does not warrant that product descriptions are free from error or complete. If a product sold by Seller to Buyer is different than described, the sole remedy of Buyer is to contact the Seller and request a return authorization, which would be subject to the terms of the Seller’s published Return Policy and these Terms and Conditions of Sale.
  • Payment.
    • If the Seller has extended credit terms to the Buyer, payment shall be due 30 days from the date of the invoice (Net 30), unless otherwise agreed to by Seller in writing, without deduction or offset. Past due invoices will be assessed a service charge of 2% per month or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower. If the Buyer fails to make any payment when due, Seller reserves the right to cancel Buyer’s credit line and terminate or suspend any unshipped purchase orders under which Seller has extended credit to Buyer. In the event of default by Buyer, Seller shall be entitled to, without limitation, recovery of all late fees, collection costs, and expenses, including attorney fees, and court costs.
    • If the Buyer places an order with an electronic payment method, such as a credit card, Amazon Pay account, PayPal account, 3rd party installment financing, or any other electronic payment method that the Seller may offer from time to time, the Buyer’s payment method will be charged in full for the order immediately upon order submission without regard to the shipping state of the order.
  • Electronic Communications. Buyer consents to receive email communications from Seller and its third party service providers for the purposes of shipping, delivering, and providing customer service. Such communications may include, but are not limited to, order confirmations, shipping confirmations, order status updates, backorder notices, return instructions, and requests for corrections to suspected invalid or incorrect addresses and phone numbers. Buyer agrees that all communications that Seller provides to Buyer through email communications satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.
  • Shipping.
    • Risk of Loss. All products purchased from Seller are made pursuant to a shipment contract. Shipping is FOB Origin. Title and risk of loss pass to Buyer upon delivery of products to the carrier.
    • Estimated Ship Dates. Seller may provide Buyer with estimated ship dates for various items in their order. These dates are merely estimates and subject to change. Seller is not liable for delays in delivery caused by failing to provide accurate estimated ship dates.
    • Changes to Shipping Address.
      • Address Change Requests Made Prior to Shipment. If Buyer wishes to change the shipping address of an order they have placed that has not yet been released to the carrier, the Buyer must inform the Seller of the new shipping address, including any new delivery contact phone numbers, if applicable, by contacting the Seller in writing prior to the shipment being released to the carrier. If such a communication is received by Seller prior to shipment, the Seller agrees to make reasonable efforts to change the Buyer’s shipping address prior to the order being released to the carrier. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Buyer understands and agrees that Seller is not liable for failing to change the Buyer’s address prior to shipment if: (1) the order is in an advanced packing stage where changing the address is not practical in the Seller’s sole discretion; (2) the address change request does not specify the affected order record or the Seller is not otherwise able to determine the affected order record based on the information contained in the Buyer’s address change communication; (4) the new shipping address is located outside of the lower 48 states of the USA; (5) the address change request is received after shipment. If the Seller is not able to change the Buyer’s shipping address prior to shipment, the Seller will promptly notify the Buyer. If the Seller is not able to change the Buyer’s shipping address prior to shipment, and if the Buyer requests the Seller to make an address change with the carrier, the address change request will be handled in accordance with the section titled "Address Change Requests Made After Shipment" hereof.
      • Address Change Requests Made After Shipment. If Buyer wishes to change the shipping address of an order they have placed that has already been released to the carrier, the Buyer must inform the Seller of the new shipping address, including any new delivery contact phone numbers, if applicable, by contacting the Seller in writing. Buyer understands that it may not be possible for the Seller to change the shipping address with the carrier, either because it is not practical to do so, or because the order has already been delivered. If the Seller is able to change the shipping address with the carrier, Buyer agrees to pay any and all address change fees and additional transportation charges assessed by the carrier to effect the address change.
    • Inspection and Damage.
      • Inspection of Loading Dock, Curbside, and Garage/Threshold Deliveries. While an item is being delivered and while the carrier is still present at Buyer’s shipping address, the Buyer agrees to fully inspect the shipping carton and packaging materials for any signs of visible damage. If there is no visible damage to the packaging, Buyer may accept the shipment from the carrier without completely unpacking the product. However, to address the risk of concealed damage, Buyer agrees to fully unpack and fully inspect the product for damage as soon as possible, but in no event later than 5 days after the shipment has been delivered. If, during this inspection, concealed damage is discovered, Buyer agrees not to dispose of any packing materials under any circumstances. Further, Buyer understands that discarding packaging material when concealed damage is present will release the carrier and the Seller from any and all liability. If there is visible damage to the carton, the Buyer agrees to note the damage on the carrier’s shipping document and inspect the product itself for visible damage to the product. If there is no visible damage to the product itself, the Buyer may accept the shipment, but must still note any damage to the carton on the shipping document. In this case, the Buyer agrees not to discard any packaging material. In addition, in this instance, the Seller recommends that the Buyer take pictures of the carton damage. If there is visible damage to the product itself, the Buyer agrees to refuse the delivery and note the damage on the shipping document. If the Buyer follows the preceding inspection protocol, the Seller will replace the damaged item at no cost to the Buyer. If the Buyer fails to follow this inspection protocol, either in whole or in part, the Buyer agrees that the Seller will not be liable for any loss sustained by Buyer for damage to the item.
      • Inspection of Small Parcel Shipments. If an item is delivered by a small parcel carrier (such as FedEx, UPS, or USPS), the buyer agrees to inspect the carton for damage. If there is visible damage to the carton, the Buyer agrees to refuse delivery with the carrier. If hidden damage is observed after delivery, the Buyer agrees not to discard the packaging material or carton until the claim against the carrier has been settled or until directed by the Seller in writing. If the Buyer fails to follow this inspection protocol, either in whole or in part, the Buyer agrees that the seller will not be liable for any loss sustained by Buyer for damage to the item.
    • Re-Packaging. If an item arrives damaged or if a manufacturing defect exists and the Buyer elects to return the item, the Buyer agrees to re-package the item at Buyer's expense so that it may be returned. If the packaging has been discarded or is no longer intact, the Buyer agrees to obtain suitable replacement packaging at Buyer’s own expense. Buyer understands and agrees that no refund will be issued nor will any replacement be shipped to Buyer if the Buyer is unable or unwilling to re-package the item in a manner suitable for shipping to the origin warehouse. Further, if Seller has made arrangements for the item to be picked up by a carrier of Seller's choosing, Buyer understands and agrees to release the re-packaged item to the carrier at the location where the item was originally delivered.
    • Shipping Method Cannot Be Changed After Shipment. If Buyer’s order has already been shipped, the shipping method cannot be changed. For example, if the Buyer ordered an item with Curbside delivery, the order cannot be upgraded to Garage delivery after shipment.
    • Storage Charges. If an item cannot be promptly delivered to Buyer because Buyer is not ready to accept delivery, Buyer agrees to reimburse Seller for any and all storage charges levied by the carrier to postpone delivery to accommodate the Buyer’s desired delivery date. Seller agrees to notify Buyer in writing of the date that storage charges will begin to accrue and to notify Buyer of the daily rate or aggregate cost of such charges. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Buyer acknowledges and agrees to allow Seller, without protest or objection, to charge Buyer’s credit card account or other electronic payment method on file for any and all of these charges. Buyer’s failure to receive or reply to an email notice from Seller regarding storage charges, shall not, in any way, be deemed as anything other than an explicit approval by the Buyer to allow Seller to charge the Buyer’s electronic payment method on file for the storage charges that have accrued.
    • Undeliverable Shipments. If an item shipped to Buyer cannot be delivered to Buyer for any reason, other than freight damage incurred prior to delivery, the Buyer agrees to pay: (1) all freight charges incurred by Seller to ship the item to the customer’s shipping address and to return the item to the origin warehouse; (2) any storage charges charged to the Seller by the carrier; plus (3) a 15% restocking fee applied to the gross amount invoiced for the item(s) that could not be delivered or were refused with the carrier. Buyer understands and agrees that all such charges will be deducted from Buyer’s refund.
    • Delivery Refusals and What Happens If The Carrier Is Not Able to Contact Buyer. If an item cannot be delivered because the carrier is unable to contact the Buyer to schedule a delivery appointment, or if the Buyer refuses delivery with the carrier for any reason other than shipping damage, Buyer agrees to pay: (1) all freight charges incurred by Seller to ship the item(s) to the customer’s shipping address and to return the item(s) to the origin warehouse; (2) any storage charges charged to the Seller by the carrier; plus (3) a 15% restocking fee applied to the gross amount invoiced for the item(s) that could not be delivered or were refused with the carrier. Buyer understands and agrees that all such charges will be deducted from Buyer’s refund.
    • Other. Any claims about items not being delivered must be submitted within 5 days after the date the shipping company reports delivering the package.
  • Order Cancellations. Seller reserves the right to cancel any order for any reason. All orders are good until canceled. If Buyer wishes to cancel one or more items on an order that have not yet been released to the carrier, and if all of the line items that Buyer wishes to cancel are regularly stocked items that are not being manufactured specifically fill the Buyer’s order, the Buyer must immediately notify the Seller in writing. If such a communication is received by Seller prior to shipment, the Seller agrees to make reasonable efforts to cancel the applicable line items from the Buyer’s order record prior to releasing the items to the carrier. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Buyer understands and agrees that Seller is not liable for failing to cancel any line items on Buyer’s order record if: (1) the Seller does not receive the Buyer’s order cancellation request in a timely manner; (2) the order has already been shipped (in which case the order cannot be canceled for any reason, including, but not limited to any delivery delay); (3) the order is in an advanced packing stage where canceling the order is not practical in the Seller’s sole discretion; or (4) the item(s) requested to be canceled are non-stock items or items being manufactured specifically to fill the customer’s order; or (5) the order cancellation request sent by Buyer to Seller does not specify the affected order record and the Seller is not otherwise able to determine the affected order record based on the information contained in the order cancellation request sent by Buyer to Seller. If an order cannot be canceled for any reason, Seller will promptly notify Buyer by email. If an order cannot be canceled, and the order is for a stock item that is not being manufactured specifically to fill the Buyer’s order, the Buyer may either accept the shipment or refuse delivery with the carrier. If an order cannot be canceled and Buyer elects to refuse delivery with the carrier, Buyer agrees to pay all freight charges incurred by Seller to ship the item(s) to the customer’s shipping address and to return the item(s) to the origin warehouse, plus a 15% restocking fee applied to the gross amount invoiced for the item(s) that were refused with the carrier. All such charges will be deducted from Buyer’s refund. Cancelations of orders for non-stock items or items being manufactured specifically to fill the Buyer’s order will be assessed a 50% cancellation fee as liquidated damages.
  • Order Confirmations. In the event of a discrepancy between the item(s) actually received by Buyer and the item(s) Buyer intended to purchase, the Order Confirmation emailed by Seller to Buyer confirming their order shall be the sole document used for the purpose of resolving such discrepancies
  • Special Policy Regarding Combinations and Keys. For security and privacy reasons, the Seller does not, as a matter of policy, retrieve lost, forgotten, or override combinations to safes or other security containers. In addition, the Seller does not sell or ship extra or replacement key(s). If the combination or keys to Buyer’s safe or security container are lost, forgotten, or misplaced, or stolen, the Buyer’s sole remedy will be to contact a local locksmith or safe technician at Buyer’s cost for assistance.
  • Buyer's Obligation to Assist Technicians. In the event of a malfunctioning product, Buyer may be directed by Seller or by the manufacturer of the product to assist one or more technicians over the phone or by email in troubleshooting the underlying cause of the malfunction or in completing minor repairs or adjustments to the product to resolve the issue. Examples of such troubleshooting and minor repair tasks include, but are not limited to, the following: (1) changing the batteries; (2) entering a sequence of codes on a mal-functioning keypad and reporting the results to a technician; (3) removing and replacing a keypad assembly; and (4) removing the inside panel on a safe and making minor adjustments to the handle of a safe or boltwork. Buyer agrees to perform such troubleshooting and minor repair tasks as directed by Seller or the manufacturer of the product. Whether a repair task is "minor" and is therefore covered under this provision shall be the in the sole discretion of the Seller or the manufacturer of the product. In the event that Buyer is unable or is unwilling to perform these tasks, Buyer agrees to hire a local locksmith, safe technician or other third party as needed to perform such tasks on behalf of the Buyer and at Buyer's expense.
