1. Customer should immediately contact their customer service representative upon discovery of defective Products. Customer will be asked to provide the Meyer tag number of the defective skid, the rejected quantity, and the date that the Products will be available for pickup. Any claim for shortage or for damage incurred in transit of Products must be made within ten (10) days after Customer’s receipt of the Products. All other claims, including claims for alleged defective Products, must be made within ten (10) days after Customer learns of the facts on which such claim is based, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after Customer’s receipt of the Products. All claims not made in writing and received by Meyer within the time periods specified above shall be deemed waived. No claim for defective Products will be allowed, or returned Products accepted by Meyer, if the Products have been treated or processed in any manner, except upon proof satisfactory to Meyer of the existence of a latent defect not ascertainable before treating or processing and then only if such proof is submitted within ten (10) days after such defect becomes apparent.
2. The net weight of the returned quantity should be greater than or equal to 5 percent of the net weight of the original shipped quantity.

4. For corrective action purposes, Customer must provide a sample showing the effects of the defect, as well as at least one unformed sample for mechanical testing purposes.
5. Customer will be expected to properly repackage the goods to avoid damage during the return shipment. If material is damaged during the return shipment because of improper packaging, Customer will be credited only for the scrap value of the material.
6. Customer service/sales representative will contact Customer’s shipping representative to arrange for pickup of the rejected material on the date requested by Customer. For returns of defective Products accepted by Meyer pursuant to this Return Policy, Meyer will pay for the return freight expenses.

7. Upon receipt of the rejected material, Meyer will weigh and inspect the material. Customer will be credited, at the original invoice price, for the actual returned quantity, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 13 below and in the Terms.
8. If Meyer determines through testing that the returned material meets all related specifications as stated on Customer’s purchase order, the return will not be accepted, and no credit shall be issued. The Customer will reimburse Meyer for all expenses incurred.

Drop products, surplus, contract, VMI, Mill Direct, and processed items cannot be returned.
