LifeTein reserves the right to hold any items on customers' other orders until past-due invoices are resolved. All payments must be made in United States dollars. Payment for all orders outside of the U.S. must be received prior to shipment. Products are shipped F.O.B. origin. Freight is prepaid and added to the invoice. Prices are subject to change without notice. All orders are subject to final acceptance by LifeTein at the prices in effect at the time of shipment. LifeTein may, at its sole discretion, refuse to ship orders to a location specified by the customer. LifeTein will select the method of delivery; title passes to the customer upon LifeTein's delivery of the products to the transportation company.

With regards to custom services, LifeTein will perform all services following the a) supplied quotation or b) customer information brochure using prevailing industry standards. Cancellation of services before the services are completed will not obligate LifeTein to provide a refund or bill for an amount less than that quoted. The customer may be billed either partially or in full depending upon the progress of the service from the starting date, at LifeTein's discretion. 50% of total cost will be charged as non-refundable down payment to cover the material and labor costs upon project approval for custom peptide synthesis, custom chemical synthesis and custom antibody production service. The rest of funds will be charged when the project is completed. If we were not able to finish the project as expected, fees for raw materials and labor fees should be paid according to the final invoice.

Pricing

LifeTein LLC reserves the right to change prices without prior notification, excepting prices agreed upon in written contracts. All pricing on our website and in literature is in United States dollars and does not include shipping or taxes. New Jersey State and applicable county sales taxes will be added to invoices when goods are shipped to a New Jersey address unless a valid resale certificate issued by the State Board of Equalization is presented before shipment. Any state taxes outside of New Jersey and any duty fees are the sole responsibility of the purchaser. If LifeTein is required to pay any such fee or tax, the customer will reimburse us in full. Should the customer decide to pay via wire transfer, the customer is responsible for any wire transfer fees.

Materials and Data

With regards to custom services, customers will supply LifeTein with data and/or materials such as protein or peptide sequences or recombinant proteins for completion of services. LifeTein will not claim ownership of any of data submitted or reagents supplied by the customer. The customer will also assume ownership of all materials produced in conjunction with the performance of the services upon customer receipt of the products and payment of invoice. The customer may at any time request that any and all all documents and/or remaining materials be returned, at the customer's expense. Otherwise, the materials and information will be stored at LifeTein and/or a subcontractor's facility until further notice. LifeTein will not claim ownership of these materials.

Damaged Shipments

If a shipment is damaged, accept the shipment and retain all shipping materials for inspection. Make a note on the waybill of any visible damage at the time of receipt and report the damage to our Customer Service Department. As title passes to the customer upon delivery of products to the transportation company, the customer is responsible for handling damage claims with the shipping company.

Shortage Claims

We carefully check and recheck packages before shipment to help eliminate the possibility of any error. If any shipping discrepancies are discovered, claims must be made within 10 days of receipt of shipment. Please check all packing material thoroughly upon receipt of shipment.

Returns

Products may not be returned without prior authorization by the LifeTein Technical Service Department. Due to the perishable nature of our products, contact the LifeTein Service Department at as soon as possible.

Hazardous Substances
