Accounts not paid after 120 days are canceled and referred to our collection agency. You agree to pay NESEED all collection costs including but not limited to reasonable attorney’s fees.
Prices
All prices in our hard copy catalog and neseed.com are subject to change without notice; but we will not change our price unless absolutely necessary. Orders will be invoiced at the price prevailing at the time of shipment. Although every effort is made to keep pricing as accurate as possible, NESEED will not be responsible for pricing errors. NESEED is not responsible for honoring third party pricing, discount claims, terms and conditions or offers. Such third parties include, but are not limited to, coupon websites, social media posts, blogs, resellers and other avenues beyond our control.
Back Order Policy
All items will be back-ordered unless the item is sold out or a crop failure. Unless the customer notifies NESEED in writing, all back-orders shall be shipped. If payment is over the amount which is filled, the difference will be credited to you and applied toward your next purchase. Credits left on accounts for over 1 year will be deleted. Items MAY NOT be added to any back-order.
COD Shipment
NESEED does not ship COD.
Delivery
Please allow 7–10 business days for delivery. Shipping and handling for all seed orders $175.00 and above are free of charge in the continental United States (seeds only, hardgoods excluded). All seed orders under $175.00 are subject to a shipping and handling charge in the continental United States (seeds only, hardgoods excluded). For the aforementioned shipping methods, we normally ship by first class priority mail or UPS at our discretion. By choosing a shipping method other than free or flat-rate (e.g. UPS, FedEx, etc.), the customer agrees to decline flat-rate and free shipping methods and abide by the pricing and shipping method chosen. Items that need to be delivered sooner (such as overnight) or items that will be shipped outside the continental United States will require additional charges.
International Sales (Outside Continental United States)
Due to varying postal rates and customs regulations, special rates and billing will be applied to all orders. All international shipping is at customer’s risk. A Phytosanitary certificate is required and must be obtained by NESEED before items can be shipped. For NESEED to obtain this certificate, the customer must first purchase the certificate on neseed.com for a nominal fee. Items will not ship unless this Phytosanitary certificate is obtained.
Return of Merchandise
NESEED will not accept the return of any opened seed packages or goods. Proper authorization and shipping instructions are required before returns are accepted. Unauthorized returns will be refused and sent back at the customer’s expense. No returns will be accepted after 30 days from time of invoicing. A 25% restocking fee will be charged on all returns. All returns must have proper authorization code on package before return is valid. All special orders can not be returned and will not be accepted.
Claims
We are not responsible for damage after delivery to the carrier. All claims for storage and damage must be reported to NESEED by calling (800) 825-5477 immediately. Customers will then receive further directions on the claim from NESEED.
Delays in Delivery
Seller shall not be responsible for any loss or damage caused by delays in delivery from weather, strikes, acts of war, fire, casualty, inability to obtain materials or other causes beyond our control.
Recommendations
All recommendations made by us are compiled from recognized horticultural sources. We are not responsible for damage or failure because of any recommendations given by NESEED Co. personnel.
Descriptions and Illustrations
The descriptions of plants in our catalog and website have been prepared from our trial observations, reports from suppliers and other trial or experimental situations. Illustrated specimens have been grown and photographed under favorable conditions. Though they describe what has been observed and documented, they do not necessarily predict what can be expected under all circumstances. Variation from the color shown in our hard copy catalog or website can be expected as a result of screen viewing device and color profiles, film, printing ink, camera color balance, daylight color temperature and other catalog production techniques as well as soil, climate and other growing conditions. NESEED will not be held responsible for pricing, typographical, description or illustration differences or errors.
