DeSales Trading Company enjoys many business relationships in the United States and in many international textile markets. However, DeSales Trading Company wants its customers to know exactly what types of products are being sold. In addition, DeSales Trading, along with the yarn industry, feels there are some responsibilities customers must exercise when purchasing yarns. These are the reasons for publishing the disclaimers that appear on

  • DeSales Trading’s Sales Contracts (Order Confirmation Letters)
  • DeSales Trading’s Invoices
  • DeSales Trading’s Packing Slips

The first disclaimer will appear on any yarns represented as “First Quality”. This disclaimer is standard language and can be found on the back of just about all Yarn Sales Contracts and Yarn Invoices in the United States. DeSales Trading prefers the disclaimer on the front of the contract in bold print rather than the back in small print.

The disclaimer reads as follows:

“NOTICE OF BUYER’S TESTING OBLIGATION: DeSales Trading Co., Inc., CAN NOT WARRANT THE SUITABILITY OF THE YARN TO THE EXTENT THAT EVERY FABRIC STITCH AND COLOR WILL BE WITHIN THE CUSTOMER’S REQUIREMENTS REGARDING THE APPEARANCE OF BARE, CONTAMINATION OR OTHER PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH THE ABOVE MENTIONED YARN(S). THEREFORE, THE CUSTOMER HAS THE OBLIGATION TO CONDUCT APPROPRIATE TESTING ON EACH FABRIC STITCH AND COLOR TO LIMIT THEIR EXPOSURE TO SUCH POTENTIAL END USE PROBLEMS.”

The second disclaimer is applied to any yarn represented and sold as substandard, second quality, or off spec. The purpose with this disclaimer is to make it clear to our customers and suppliers how the particular yarn was marketed. This disclaimer appears on the front page bottom half in bold letters of

  • DeSales Trading’s Sales Contracts (Order Confirmation Letters)
  • DeSales Trading’s Invoices
  • DeSales Trading’s Packing Slips

The substandard/2nd quality disclaimer reads as:

“THESE GOODS ARE SOLD AS IS AND ARE SUBSTANDARD SECOND QUALITY YARNS. NO CLAIM OR RETURNS ACCEPTED AFTER 15 DAYS FROM RECEIPT OF GOODS. UNLESS BUYER NOTIFIES SELLER OF NONCONFORMITIES WITHIN 15 DAYS AFTER DELIVERY, BUYER ACCEPTS THE GOODS AS DELIVERED.”
