3.1 Order Confirmation
A transaction is only considered confirmed upon Xiongtu's issuance of a pro forma invoice accepted in writing by the buyer, together with receipt of any agreed deposit. Verbal agreements, informal messages, or website inquiries alone do not constitute binding purchase orders.
3.2 Pricing & Currency
All quoted prices are in USD (United States Dollars) unless otherwise expressly stated in writing. Prices are valid for the period specified in the quotation. Market conditions, exchange rate fluctuations, or supply changes may cause price adjustments; buyers will be notified prior to order confirmation.
3.3 Payment Terms
Standard payment terms are 30% deposit upon order confirmation and 70% balance prior to shipment, unless a separate written agreement specifies otherwise. Xiongtu accepts T/T (bank wire transfer) and other methods mutually agreed in writing. All bank fees on the buyer's side are borne by the buyer.
3.4 Delivery & Shipping
Default trade terms are FOB Guangzhou Port unless otherwise agreed. Estimated shipping timelines are provided in good faith but are subject to port conditions, carrier schedules, and other factors beyond Xiongtu's control. Xiongtu bears no liability for delays caused by shipping carriers or force majeure events.
3.5 Cargo Consolidation & Storage
Xiongtu offers cargo consolidation services allowing buyers to combine multiple product types into a single shipment. Goods stored at Xiongtu's facility on behalf of a buyer are held at the buyer's risk after a standard free storage period of 30 days from purchase confirmation. Storage fees may apply thereafter.
3.6 Dispute Resolution
Both parties shall first attempt to resolve any dispute through good-faith negotiation within 30 days of written notice. If unresolved, disputes shall be submitted to the competent arbitration body or court having jurisdiction in Guangzhou, China. This agreement shall be governed by the laws of the People's Republic of China.
