5.  LIMITED WARRANTY.

THIS LIMITED WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS, WHICH VARY FROM STATE TO STATE.

WE LIMIT THE DURATION AND REMEDIES OF ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

NO IMPLIED WARRANTIES FOR BUSINESS PURCHASES

In the case you are purchasing our goods or services for or on behalf of a legal entity or business (rather than as an individual consumer), the warranty is limited as follows:

TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, THIS WARRANTY IS EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, ORAL, WRITTEN, STATUTORY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. EXCEPT FOR THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES CONTAINED IN THIS LIMITED WARRANTY STATEMENT AND TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY (i) WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY; (ii) WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE; (iii) WARRANTY OF TITLE; OR (iv) WARRANTY AGAINST INFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF A THIRD PARTY; WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED BY LAW, COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, USAGE OF TRADE, OR OTHERWISE. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW DISCLAIMERS OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THIS DISCLAIMER MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. TO THE EXTENT SUCH WARRANTIES CANNOT BE DISCLAIMED UNDER THE LAWS OF YOUR JURISDICTION, WE LIMIT THE DURATION AND REMEDIES OF SUCH WARRANTIES TO THE DURATION OF THE EXPRESS LIMITED WARRANTY PROVIDED BELOW.

Products manufactured by a third party (”Third Party Product”) may constitute, contain, be contained in, incorporated into, attached to or packaged together with, the products we manufacture. Third Party Products are not covered by this limited warranty. For the avoidance of doubt, WE MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY THIRD PARTY PRODUCT, INCLUDING ANY (i) WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY; (ii) WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE; (iii) WARRANTY OF TITLE; OR (iv) WARRANTY AGAINST INFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF A THIRD PARTY; WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED BY LAW, COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, USAGE OF TRADE, OR OTHERWISE.

OUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS IS LIMITED TO REPAIR, REPLACEMENT OR REFUND, IN OUR DISCRETION. TO THE EXTENT IT IS REASONABLY PRACTICABLE, YOU WILL PROVIDE US WITH THE ACTUAL ALLEGEDLY DEFECTIVE PRODUCT FOR EXAMINATION. NEITHER ANY PERFORMANCE OR OTHER CONDUCT, NOR ANY ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION, STATEMENT OR ADVICE PROVIDED BY US OR ANY BRANDS SOLD BY US, OR AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES THEREOF, WILL CREATE A WARRANTY, OR IN ANY WAY INCREASE THE SCOPE OR DURATION OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY.

5(a)Who May Use This Warranty?[GP5] 

    This limited warranty extends only to the original purchaser of products and services from the Site. It does not extend to any subsequent or other owner or transferee of the product or any transferee or other beneficiary of any service.

    5(b)  What Does This Warranty Cover?

    This limited warranty covers during the Warranty Period (as defined below) defects in materials and workmanship in products manufactured by us that are sold through the Site.  This includes climbing holds and pads, but excludes most other products purchased from the Site.

5(c)What Does This Warranty Not Cover?

    This limited warranty does not cover:

• COLOR FADING;
• MODIFICATIONS AND REPAIRS NOT MADE BY US;
• DESIGN DEFECTS;
• DAMAGE RELATED TO IMPROPER USE; ABUSE; REGULAR WEAR AND TEAR; ACCIDENTS; IMPROPER INSTALLATION, REMOVAL OR CLEANING;
• FACTORY SECOND OR USED PRODUCTS; AND
• PRODUCTS MANUFACTURED BY THIRD PARTIES.
• WHEN YOU MAKE ANY FURTHER USE OF PRODUCTS AFTER YOU GIVE NOTICE OF A WARRANTY CLAIM;
• A DEFECT THAT ARISES BECAUSE YOU FAILED TO FOLLOW OUR ORAL OR WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS AS TO THE STORAGE, INSTALLATION, COMMISSIONING, USE OR MAINTENANCE OF THE PRODUCT;

Many of the products sold on the Site are manufactured by other companies.  The manufacturer may offer its own warranty, but we do not offer a warranty on those products.  That means they are sold “as is” and “with all faults”. If the manufacturer offers a warranty for the product, it can usually be found on the manufacturer’s website or with the product packaging.  For any product sold on the Site other than one manufactured by us, you agree that your remedy is solely with the product manufacturer and not us. 

5(d)What is the Period of Coverage?

    This limited warranty starts on the date of your purchase and lasts for two years (the “Warranty Period”). The Warranty Period is not extended if we repair or replace a warranted product or re-perform a warranted service. We may change the availability of this limited warranty at our discretion, but any changes will not be retroactive.

5(e)What Are Your Remedies Under This Warranty?

    With respect to any defective product during the Warranty Period, we will, in our sole discretion, either: (i) repair or replace such products (or the defective part) free of charge or (ii) refund the purchase price of such product.  If any other remedies that may be presented to you by us, must be in writing with a handwritten signature of our authorized representative before they become binding.

    5(f)  How Do You Obtain Warranty Service.

    To obtain warranty service, you must start the process by completing our Returns form during the Warranty Period.

    5(g)  Sole Warranty Remedies.

THE REMEDIES DESCRIBED ABOVE ARE YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES AND OUR ENTIRE OBLIGATION AND LIABILITY FOR ANY BREACH OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY.

Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this Section 12 is null and void. No assignment or delegation relieves you of any of your obligations under these Terms.
