Limited Replacement Warranty

NAPMA warrants its products to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of 30 days from date of purchase, provided they have not been subjected to obvious abuse, neglect or misuse. NAPMA's sole liability is limited to repairing or replacing products that are returned prepaid to NAPMA within this 30-day period, unless specific product literature specifies otherwise. Due to vendor requirements, books and videos cannot be refunded once the seal is broken. NAPMA's warranty as to books and videos is limited to exchange for the same title if the tape or book proves defective. See our Return and Exchange Policy for more information.

WARRANTY DISCLAIMER

THE ABOVE STATED WARRANTIES ARE IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED INCLUDING THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND OF ALL OTHER OBLIGATIONS AND LIABILITIES OF NAPMA. NAPMA NEITHER ASSUMES, NOR AUTHORIZES ANY OTHER PERSON TO ASSUME FOR IT, ANY OTHER LIABILITY IN CONNECTION WITH THE SALE OF PRODUCTS FROM ITS WEBSITE, CATALOG OR OTHERWISE. THE ABOVE LIMITED WARRANTIES SHALL NOT APPLY TO ANY PRODUCT WHICH HAS BEEN SUBJECT TO ACCIDENT, NEGLIGENCE, ALTERATION, ABUSE, OR MISUSE.

NAPMA shall not be liable for any special or consequential damages that result from the use of any product sold through this website or through its catalog. Applicable law may not allow the limitation or exclusion of liability of special or consequential damages so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to your purchase, but it is intended to be the maximum limitation as permitted by law.

Warning

Use and misuse of products sold through this website, NAPMA's catalog or otherwise, involves serious risks including injury, disability and death. Purchasers, users and participants assume all risk of injury.

General Disclaimer

Product descriptions, typographic, pricing and photographic errors are unintentional and subject to correction. We regret, but are not liable for such errors. NAPMA reserves the right to reject any orders placed for a product listed at an incorrect price. If you discover an error in our website or catalog, please let us know.

Applicable Law and Arbitration of Disputes

Your order from this website or from NAPMA's catalog shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Oklahoma, U.S.A. without its choice of law provisions, and not by the 1980 U.N. Convention on contracts for the international sale of goods. The State of Oklahoma's law governing "Sales," as found in Title 12A of the Oklahoma Statutes has specific application to goods sold by NAPMA to you, subject to disclaimers and limitations of liability set forth herein. You agree that jurisdiction and venue in any proceeding directly or indirectly arising out of or relating to the purchase of goods from NAPMA not exceeding $4500.00 will be in the small claims division of District Court of Oklahoma County, Oklahoma. You agree that any dispute or controversy arising out of or relating to the purchase of goods from NAPMA exceeding $4500.00 shall be resolved exclusively and finally by arbitration subject to the provisions of the Uniform Arbitration Act as enacted in Oklahoma, as found in the Oklahoma statutes at Title 15. Such arbitration shall occur in Oklahoma County, Oklahoma before a sole arbitrator. Any award rendered in any such arbitration proceeding shall be final and binding on each of the parties, and judgment may be entered thereon in a court of competent jurisdiction. Any cause of action or claim you may have with respect to the purchase of NAPMA products or any other claim related to the use of the website or catalog must be commenced within one (1) year after the claim or cause of action arises. NAPMA's failure to enforce strict performance of any provision of these terms and conditions shall not be construed as a waiver of any provision or right. Neither the course of conduct nor trade practice shall act to modify any of these terms and conditions.

NOTICE OF DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION AGREEMENT

The terms and conditions of all sales by NAPMA provide that all disputes between you and NAPMA will be resolved by BINDING ARBITRATION.

You GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend your rights under this contract except for matters that may be taken to THE SMALL CLAIMS COURT OF OKLAHOMA COUNTY, OKLAHOMA. Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR and NOT a judge or jury. You are entitled to a FAIR HEARING, BUT the arbitration procedures are SIMPLER AND MORE LIMITED THAN RULES APPLICABLE IN COURT.

Arbitrator decisions are as enforceable as any court order and are subject to VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY A COURT FOR MORE DETAILS, SEE "APPLICABLE LAW AND ARBITRATION" ABOVE.
