TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Jon's Nursery policies do not apply to customers which require contracted purchase agreements and prices and/or special services, terms, conditions of sale or delivery, which are not specifically included herein. We reserve the right to waive any part or all provisions or obligations of our standard policies to accommodate such arrangements. Mass merchants, co-ops or others requiring UPC, SKU or item number identification on products or billing will be provided with prices and terms commensurate with their requirements.
NEW CUSTOMERS Because we are a wholesale nursery, new customers will be required to show proof of nursery certification or stock dealer certification upon initial application to purchase our plant material.
TERMS Normal payment terms are cash on delivery; unless prior approval is obtained, or dealer is currently licensed according to the Florida Agricultural Bond Law (Florida Statutes Sec. 604.15-604.30) such payment shall be cash currency, certified check, cashier’s check or credit card. (American Express, Discover, Master Card or Visa.) Credit can be arranged by submitting a credit application for investigation and allowing 30 days approval. For customers with approved credit, invoices are due on a 30 day net basis. Past due accounts will be subject to service charges assessed at the rate of 1.5% per month (18% per annum) on any balance over 30 days. Customer agrees to pay any and all reasonable collection expenses, including attorney’s fees and court costs, should such action become necessary to effect settlement. We reserve the right to cancel credit at any time.

DELIVERY We will be glad to arrange delivery by our trucks in the areas we serve. Orders are pooled on a stand-by basis until the load is adequate to ship.
