  1. FORMS OF PAYMENT: Sand Cloud requires that all sales be prepaid by credit card unless additional terms are agreed to by the Parties in writing. Custom Orders require payment of 50% of the total invoice upon placing the Custom Order, and the remaining 50% of the total invoice will be due and processed upon shipment of the Product(s). Partial payment for Products is subject to approval by Sand Cloud at its sole and absolute discretion. Sand Cloud does not accept cash on delivery (C.O.D.) orders. For Customers who pay by credit card for regular orders, the credit card charge will be authorized at the time the order is sent by Sand Cloud to the Sand Cloud distribution facility for processing. Merchandise and applicable freight charges will be invoiced when the order is processed and then the Customer credit card will be charged for the full amount due as stated on the invoice, once shipped.

Orders which require shipment to multiple locations shall be considered by Sand Cloud to be individual orders for shipping and invoicing purposes.  Sand Cloud may, in its sole discretion, cancel any order at any time or delay shipment of Products if Customer fails to pay any current or past due amounts.  Customer shall be in breach of these Terms for non-payment of any sums and is subject to a service charge of the lower of five percent (5%) or the maximum rate allowed by law, on a per month basis. If any payment is not made in full by the due date indicated on the invoice Sand Cloud may deduct any outstanding amounts from any monies owed to the Customer on any account whatsoever, without affecting any other right Sand Cloud may have. No payment shall be deemed to have been made until Sand Cloud’s account is credited with such payment and the applicable service charge if any. The Customer may not withhold, delay or make any deduction from, or set off against, any payment due to Sand Cloud for any reason, except for good faith disputes pursuant to Section 10 below. Customer shall pay all costs, expenses and reasonable attorney’s fees that Sand Cloud may incur for collecting delinquent or dishonored payments.

Once Customer and Sand Cloud have come to an agreement as to the terms of the Custom Order, Sand Cloud will then send an invoice to the Customer memorializing the terms of the order including the amount due to Sand Cloud, a mock-up sample of the Customer Order, and the deadline for payment. The Customer has twenty-four (24) hours after approving the invoice and remitting payment to provide a notice of dispute for the Custom Order invoice, otherwise it will be deemed approved and will be processed for payment.

If the Customer fails to comply with this provision, the Products shall be deemed to be free from any defect or damage. Customer must inspect Products upon receipt. Failure to make a claim within thirty (30) days of receipt constitutes acceptance of the Products as-is. Customer is solely responsible for all freight and insurance charges and any other costs associated with, or involved in, the shipment of Products to Sand Cloud. If the Products received by Customer are incorrect or faulty Sand Cloud will refund the standard shipping charges to the Customer. Sand Cloud, in its sole and absolute discretion, will determine whether its Products are defective and either replace the Products or refund the price of the Products.


Returns

No order may be canceled and no Products may be returned without Sand Cloud's prior written consent. Standard Orders and Standard Wholesale Orders may be returned within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Products by sending an email to operations@sandcloud.com requesting authorization in writing for the return. All Custom Orders are final sale and no returns or exchanges are allowed. Any returns which are received by Sand Cloud without a confirmed Sand Cloud return authorization will be refused and returned to Customer at Customer’s expense.  Products returned are not to exceed the quantity authorized. All returns must have freight prepaid and no C.O.D.’s will be accepted. Any returns which Sand Cloud agrees to accept must be forwarded (delivery prepaid by Customer) to 1068 1/2 Tourmaline Street, San Diego, CA 92109. If a return requires repackaging or re-stocking, an appropriate expense will be charged to the Customer. Customer is solely responsible for all freight and insurance charges and any other costs associated with or involved in the shipment of Products to Sand Cloud.

Unauthorized Product Return:

No credit will be issued for unauthorized Product returns unless Sand Cloud has provided prior written authorization. Sand Cloud reserves the right to charge a processing fee on any of the above Product received by its returns center.



  1. DELIVERY: Unless otherwise agreed to by the Parties, Sand Cloud will choose the carrier for shipping Products and the prices for Products will include the payment by Sand Cloud of ground transportation costs but will exclude all other charges including, but not limited to, charges for insurance, customs, duties, tariffs and special packaging.  Freight charges apply and will be added to the Customer order and invoice upon processing. Sand Cloud’s responsibility for delivery will cease when the carrier signs for shipment to the destination as specified. Sand Cloud may make partial shipments on Customer orders, which may be separately invoiced and shall be paid for when due, without regard to subsequent shipments.  Delay on shipment or delivery of any particular portion of an order shall not relieve Customer of its obligation to accept the remaining portion of that order. Sand Cloud shall be entitled to make partial deliveries and failure to deliver part of any order shall not entitle the Customer to reject the Products. Regardless of the Party paying freight charges, all risk of loss or damage in transit will be borne by Customer.  All claims for damage to, or loss of, Products must be made by Customer directly to the carrier or the insurance company of the carrier (as the case may be). Sand Cloud will use reasonable efforts to meet requests for specific shipping dates agreed upon by both parties. Regardless of the date of actual shipment, Customer will not be excused from its obligation to pay for Products when shipped, or from any of its other obligations hereunder. SAND CLOUD SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES, WHETHER INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR OTHERWISE, FOR FAILURE TO FILL ORDERS, DELAYS IN DELIVERY, ANY ERROR IN THE FILLING OF ORDERS OR OTHERWISE.

If the Customer fails to accept delivery of the Products, Sand Cloud shall, without prejudice to its other rights, be entitled to store the Products at the Customer's sole risk and expense and the Customer shall pay all storage and additional delivery costs incurred until such delivery is accepted by Customer. In the event the delivery is rejected because the Customer alleges such Products are defective or damaged, then the provisions of Section 7 shall apply.


  1. TERMINATION: Sand Cloud shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate these Terms or any other agreement with the Customer or withhold delivery of any Products if the Customer: a) fails to pay any monies owed to Sand Cloud by the due date on the invoice; or b) commits any breach of these Terms or any other agreement with Sand Cloud; or c) violates Sand Cloud’s unilateral minimum advertised price (MAP) policy; or d) executes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or e) commits any act of bankruptcy or goes into liquidation; or f) has a receiver, administrative receiver or administrator appointed over all or part of its assets; or g) has a third party impose or attempt to collect from Sand Cloud or suffers any similar or analogous act.

PAYMENT DISPUTES: If a payment dispute arises, the Customer will pay the undisputed portion of their order on a timely basis and notify Sand Cloud in writing of the Customer’s basis for withholding payment of any disputed amount. Upon receipt of Customer’s dispute notice, Sand Cloud and Customer shall work together in good faith to resolve such dispute in a prompt and mutually acceptable manner. Charges that are agreed to be correct by the Parties shall be considered past due if not paid in full within ten (10) days after such agreement.
