These Terms of Sale (the “Agreement”) constitute a legally binding agreement by and between KDM Global Partners, LLC (“KDM”) and you (“You” or “Your”). By placing an order with KDM, You represent and warrant that You have read and understand, and agree to be bound by, this Agreement.
- ELIGIBILITY YOU MUST BE TWENTY-ONE YEARS OR OLDER TO PURCHASE AND RECEIVE WINE FROM KDM. ALL DELIVERIES MUST BE SIGNED FOR, AND ACCEPTED BY, A PERSON TWENTY-ONE YEARS OR OLDER. PROOF OF AGE IS REQUIRED AT TIME OF DELIVERY. BY PLACING AN ORDER WITH KDM, YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU ARE AT LEAST 21 YEARS OLD AND ARE OTHERWISE LEGALLY QUALIFIED TO ENTER INTO AND FORM CONTRACTS UNDER APPLICABLE LAW. Any individual placing on order on behalf of a third-party further represents and warrants that they are authorized to act and enter into contracts on behalf of that third-party. This Agreement is void where prohibited.
- CHANGES TO THE AGREEMENT KDM reserves the right to change this Agreement at any time upon notice to You, to be given by the posting of a new version or a change notice on the Website. It is Your responsibility to review this Agreement periodically.
- CANCELLATIONS Orders may not be cancelled once they have been shipped.
- TITLE Title on all alcohol passes to the buyer at the time of purchase in the state of California. If you require that your alcohol be shipped, you authorize KDM to engage a common carrier to deliver the alcohol on your behalf. IF YOU CHOOSE TO SHIP YOUR ALCOHOL TO A NON-RECIPROCAL STATE, YOU ASSUME ALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR COMPLYING WITH YOUR STATE’S LAWS REGARDING ALCOHOL SHIPMENTS.
- IN-STATE SALES All wines must be paid for in full prior to delivery. California residents are responsible for all shipping costs, including insurance (as applicable) and federal, state or local taxes, duties, or fees. For all orders delivered in-state, the then current local County Sales Tax Rate at the Address of Delivery will be applied to all orders at the time of delivery. California residents are solely responsible for the shipment of wines and for any loss or damage to the wines once they have left KDM’s warehouse. By placing an order with KDM, You thereby authorize KDM to act on Your behalf to engage a common carrier to deliver Your order to You.
- OUT-OF-STATE SALES The following terms and conditions apply to non-California residents or to California residents who wish to have their purchases shipped out-of-state:
- Regardless of the customer’s state of residence, all purchases (except for food, which is non-taxable) must be delivered out-of-state or the then current local County sales tax rate at the California Address of Delivery will be applied to the purchase price.
- KDM makes no representation to the legal rights of anyone to ship or import wines into any state outside of California.
- You are solely responsible for the shipment of wines and for any loss or damage to the wines once they have left KDM’s warehouse.
- By placing an order with KDM, you thereby authorize KDM to act on Your behalf to engage a common carrier to deliver Your order to You.
- If You direct KDM to deliver Your purchase to a freight forwarder or common-carrier engaged by You, You acknowledge that You require such goods to be shipped out-of-state. You are solely responsible for KDM receiving proof that such goods were shipped out of the State of California. Such proof of out-of-state shipment must be in the form of a bill of lading or other evidence as KDM deems sufficient in its sole discretion.
- If KDM does not receive such proof of shipment out-of-state within ninety (90) days of the date of a final invoice delivered to buyer, KDM reserves the right to apply California sales tax to the purchase price and charge buyer’s account for such amounts.
- You acknowledge and agree that various states impose limitation on the quantity of alcoholic beverages that may be purchased and brought into their jurisdictions without requiring the purchaser, the seller, or the shipper to possess certain licenses or permits. KDM, as a condition of sale, assumes no obligation and bears no responsibility whatsoever for applying for or obtaining any such permits or licenses. KDM DISCLAIMS, AND YOU AGREE TO ASSUME, ALL OBLIGATION AND RESPONSIBILITY WHATSOEVER FOR APPLYING FOR OR OBTAINING ANY SUCH PERMITS OR LICENSES. Therefore, You are strongly advised to investigate such licensing requirements and limitations and to determine the manner in which alcoholic beverages may lawfully be brought into states other than California. You are responsible for all applicable excise, use and sales taxes and fees due to Your state stemming from Your purchase from KDM of any taxable goods.
- If a California shipping address is not immediately available, or KDM is otherwise unable to promptly deliver Your shipment to You in California, KDM reserves the right, in KDM’s sole discretion, to charge You reasonable storage and insurance fees. All such charges must be paid in full prior to delivery.
- PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONS KDM attempts to be as accurate as possible in its product and pricing information; however, KDM cannot guarantee that product descriptions and/or specifications, pricing or any other content are accurate, complete, reliable, current or error-free. In the event that information is incorrect due to typographical, informational, technical or other errors, KDM will not be liable for any loss or discrepancy with accurate data.
- PRODUCT PRICING Occasionally, despite our best efforts to be accurate, a product may appear on the website or offer of KDM with an inaccurate price. If a product’s correct price is higher than the stated the price, KDM will, at KDM’s sole discretion, either contact You for instructions before shipping or cancel Your order and notify You of such cancellation. Except as otherwise noted, the suggested retail price displayed for a product represents the retail price suggested by the producer, importer or distributor–such information acquired directly from the producer, importer or distributor or as stated on a reputable website or publication. Such a price may also be estimated in accordance with industry practice or be the estimated retail value for a comparably featured item offered elsewhere. KDM cannot guarantee that such information is accurate, complete, reliable, current or error-free.
