2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.3160 - Exclusion or modification of warranties; livestock warranty.

(1) Words or conduct relevant to the creation of an express warranty and words or conduct tending to negate or limit warranty shall be construed wherever reasonable as consistent with each other; but subject to the provisions of ORS 72.2020 on parol or extrinsic evidence negation or limitation is inoperative to the extent that such construction is unreasonable.
(2) Subject to subsection (3) of this section, to exclude or modify the implied warranty of merchantability or any part of it the language must mention merchantability and in case of a writing must be conspicuous, and to exclude or modify any implied warranty of fitness the exclusion must be by a writing and conspicuous. Language to exclude all implied warranties of fitness is sufficient if it states, for example, that "There are no warranties which extend beyond the description on the face hereof."
(3) Notwithstanding subsection (2) of this section:
(a) Unless the circumstances indicate otherwise, all implied warranties are excluded by expressions like "as is," "with all faults" or other language which in common understanding calls the buyer’s attention to the exclusion of warranties and makes plain that there is no implied warranty; and
(b) When the buyer before entering into the contract has examined the goods or the sample or model as fully as the buyer desired or has refused to examine the goods there is no implied warranty with regard to defects which an examination ought in the circumstances to have revealed to the buyer; and
(c) An implied warranty can also be excluded or modified by course of dealing or course of performance or usage of trade; and
(d) With respect to the sale of livestock between merchants, excluding livestock sold for immediate slaughter, there shall be no implied warranty that the livestock animal is free from disease except where the seller had knowledge or reason to know that the animal was not free from disease at the time of the sale.
(4) Remedies for breach of warranty can be limited in accordance with the provisions of ORS 72.7180 on liquidation or limitation of damages and ORS 72.7190 on contractual modification of remedy. [1961 c.726 §72.3160; 1979 c.636 §2]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.3170 - Cumulation and conflict of warranties express or implied.

Warranties whether express or implied shall be construed as consistent with each other and as cumulative, but if such construction is unreasonable the intention of the parties shall determine which warranty is dominant. In ascertaining that intention the following rules apply:
(1) Exact or technical specifications displace an inconsistent sample or model or general language of description.
(2) A sample from an existing bulk displaces inconsistent general language of description.
(3) Express warranties displace inconsistent implied warranties other than an implied warranty of fitness for a particular purpose. [1961 c.726 §72.3170]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.3180 - Third party beneficiaries of warranties express or implied.

A seller’s warranty whether express or implied extends to any natural person who is in the family or household of the buyer or who is a guest in the home of the buyer if it is reasonable to expect that such person may use, consume or be affected by the goods and who is injured in person by breach of the warranty. A seller may not exclude or limit the operation of this section. [1961 c.726 §72.3180]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.3190 - F.O.B. and F.A.S. terms.

(1) Unless otherwise agreed the term F.O.B. (which means "free on board") at a named place, even though used only in connection with the stated price, is a delivery term under which:
(a) When the term is F.O.B. the place of shipment, the seller must at that place ship the goods in the manner provided in ORS 72.5040 and bear the expense and risk of putting them into the possession of the carrier; or
(b) When the term is F.O.B. the place of destination, the seller must at the expense and risk of the seller transport the goods to that place and there tender delivery of them in the manner provided in ORS 72.5030;
(c) When under either (a) or (b) the term is also F.O.B. vessel, car or other vehicle, the seller must in addition at the expense and risk of the seller load the goods on board. If the term is F.O.B. vessel the buyer must name the vessel and in an appropriate case the seller must comply with the provisions of ORS 72.3230 on the form of bill of lading.
(2) Unless otherwise agreed the term F.A.S. vessel (which means "free alongside ship") at a named port, even though used only in connection with the stated price, is a delivery term under which the seller must:
(a) At the expense and risk of the seller deliver the goods alongside the vessel in the manner usual in that port or on a dock designated and provided by the buyer; and
(b) Obtain and tender a receipt for the goods in exchange for which the carrier is under a duty to issue a bill of lading.
(3) Unless otherwise agreed in any case falling within paragraph (a) or (c) of subsection (1) of this section or subsection (2) of this section the buyer must seasonably give any needed instructions for making delivery, including when the term is F.A.S. or F.O.B. the loading berth of the vessel and in an appropriate case its name and sailing date. The seller may treat the failure of needed instructions as a failure of cooperation as provided in ORS 72.3110. The seller may also at the option of the seller move the goods in any reasonable manner preparatory to delivery or shipment.
(4) Under the term F.O.B. vessel or F.A.S. unless otherwise agreed the buyer must make payment against tender of the required documents and the seller may not tender nor the buyer demand delivery of the goods in substitution for the documents. [1961 c.726 §72.3190]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.3200 - C.I.F. and C. and F. terms.

(1) The term C.I.F. means that the price includes in a lump sum the cost of the goods and the insurance and freight to the named destination. The term C. and F. or C.F. means that the price so includes cost and freight to the named destination.
(2) Unless otherwise agreed and even though used only in connection with the stated price and destination, the term C.I.F. destination or its equivalent requires the seller at the expense and risk of the seller to:
(a) Put the goods into the possession of a carrier at the port for shipment and obtain a negotiable bill or bills of lading covering the entire transportation to the named destination; and
(b) Load the goods and obtain a receipt from the carrier (which may be contained in the bill of lading) showing that the freight has been paid or provided for; and
(c) Obtain a policy or certificate of insurance, including any war risk insurance, of a kind and on terms then current at the port of shipment in the usual amount, in the currency of the contract, shown to cover the same goods covered by the bill of lading and providing for payment of loss to the order of the buyer or for the account of whom it may concern; but the seller may add to the price the amount of the premium for any such war risk insurance; and
(d) Prepare an invoice of the goods and procure any other documents required to effect shipment or to comply with the contract; and
(e) Forward and tender with commercial promptness all the documents in due form and with any indorsement necessary to perfect the buyer’s rights.
(3) Unless otherwise agreed the term C. and F. or its equivalent has the same effect and imposes upon the seller the same obligations and risks as a C.I.F. term except the obligation as to insurance.
(4) Under the term C.I.F. or C. and F. unless otherwise agreed the buyer must make payment against tender of the required documents and the seller may not tender nor the buyer demand delivery of the goods in substitution for the documents. [1961 c.726 §72.3200]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.3210 - C.I.F. or C. and F.: "net landed weights"; "payment on arrival"; warranty of condition on arrival.

Under a contract containing a term C.I.F. or C. and F.:
(1) Where the price is based on or is to be adjusted according to "net landed weights", "delivered weights," "out turn" quantity or quality or the like, unless otherwise agreed the seller must reasonably estimate the price. The payment due on tender of the documents called for by the contract is the amount so estimated, but after final adjustment of the price a settlement must be made with commercial promptness.
(2) An agreement described in subsection (1) of this section or any warranty of quality or condition of the goods on arrival places upon the seller the risk of ordinary deterioration, shrinkage and the like in transportation but has no effect on the place or time of identification to the contract for sale or delivery or on the passing of the risk of loss.
(3) Unless otherwise agreed where the contract provides for payment on or after arrival of the goods the seller must before payment allow such preliminary inspection as is feasible; but if the goods are lost delivery of the documents and payment are due when the goods should have arrived. [1961 c.726 §72.3210]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.3220 - Delivery "ex-ship."

(1) Unless otherwise agreed a term for delivery of goods "ex-ship" (which means from the carrying vessel) or in equivalent language is not restricted to a particular ship and requires delivery from a ship which has reached a place at the named port of destination where goods of the kind are usually discharged.
(2) Under such a term unless otherwise agreed:
(a) The seller must discharge all liens arising out of the carriage and furnish the buyer with a direction which puts the carrier under a duty to deliver the goods; and
(b) The risk of loss does not pass to the buyer until the goods leave the ship’s tackle or are otherwise properly unloaded. [1961 c.726 §72.3220]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.3230 - Form of bill of lading required in overseas shipment; "overseas."

(1) Where the contract contemplates overseas shipment and contains a term C.I.F. or C. and F. or F.O.B. vessel, the seller unless otherwise agreed must obtain a negotiable bill of lading stating that the goods have been loaded on board or, in the case of a term C.I.F. or C. and F., received for shipment.
(2) Where in a case within subsection (1) of this section a tangible bill of lading has been issued in a set of parts, unless otherwise agreed if the documents are not to be sent from abroad the buyer may demand tender of the full set; otherwise only one part of the bill of lading need be tendered. Even if the agreement expressly requires a full set:
(a) Due tender of a single part is acceptable within the provisions of ORS 72.5080 (1) on cure of improper delivery; and
(b) Even though the full set is demanded, if the documents are sent from abroad the person tendering an incomplete set may nevertheless require payment upon furnishing an indemnity which the buyer in good faith deems adequate.
(3) A shipment by water or by air or a contract contemplating such shipment is "overseas" in so far as by usage of trade or agreement it is subject to the commercial, financing or shipping practices characteristic of international deep water commerce. [1961 c.726 §72.3230; 2009 c.181 §28]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.3240 - "No arrival, no sale" term.

Under a term "no arrival, no sale" or terms of like meaning, unless otherwise agreed:
(1) The seller must properly ship conforming goods and if they arrive by any means the seller must tender them on arrival but the seller assumes no obligation that the goods will arrive unless the seller has caused the nonarrival; and
(2) Where without fault of the seller the goods are in part lost or have so deteriorated as no longer to conform to the contract or arrive after the contract time, the buyer may proceed as if there had been casualty to identified goods as provided in ORS 72.6130. [1961 c.726 §72.3240]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.3250 - "Letter of credit" term; "confirmed credit."

(1) Failure of the buyer seasonably to furnish an agreed letter of credit is a breach of the contract for sale.
(2) The delivery to seller of a proper letter of credit suspends the buyer’s obligation to pay. If the letter of credit is dishonored, the seller may on seasonable notification to the buyer require payment directly from the buyer.
(3) Unless otherwise agreed the term "letter of credit" or "banker’s credit" in a contract for sale means an irrevocable credit issued by a financing agency of good repute and, where the shipment is overseas, of good international repute. The term "confirmed credit" means that the credit must also carry the direct obligation of such an agency which does business in the seller’s financial market. [1961 c.726 §72.3250]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.3260 - Sale on approval and sale or return; rights of creditors.

(1) Unless otherwise agreed, if delivered goods may be returned by the buyer even though they conform to the contract, the transaction is:
(a) A "sale on approval" if the goods are delivered primarily for use; and
(b) A "sale or return" if the goods are delivered primarily for resale.
(2) Goods held on approval are not subject to the claims of the buyer’s creditors until acceptance; goods held on sale or return are subject to such claims while in the buyer’s possession.
(3) Any "or return" term of a contract for sale is to be treated as a separate contract for sale within ORS 72.2010 relating to the statute of frauds and as contradicting the sale aspect of the contract within the provisions of ORS 72.2020 on parole or extrinsic evidence. [1961 c.726 §72.3260; 1967 c.395 §1; 1993 c.756 §1; 2001 c.445 §134]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.3270 - Special incidents of sale on approval and sale or return.

(1) Under a sale on approval unless otherwise agreed:
(a) Although the goods are identified to the contract the risk of loss and the title do not pass to the buyer until acceptance; and
(b) Use of the goods consistent with the purpose of trial is not acceptance but failure seasonably to notify the seller of election to return the goods is acceptance, and if the goods conform to the contract acceptance of any part is acceptance of the whole; and
(c) After due notification of election to return, the return is at the seller’s risk and expense but a merchant buyer must follow any reasonable instructions.
(2) Under a sale or return unless otherwise agreed:
(a) The option to return extends to the whole or any commercial unit of the goods while in substantially their original condition, but must be exercised seasonably; and
(b) The return is at the buyer’s risk and expense. [1961 c.726 §72.3270]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.3280 - Sale by auction.

(1) In a sale by auction if goods are put up in lots each lot is the subject of a separate sale.
(2) A sale by auction is complete when the auctioneer so announces by the fall of the hammer or in other customary manner. Where a bid is made while the hammer is falling in acceptance of a prior bid the auctioneer may in the auctioneer’s discretion reopen the bidding or declare the goods sold under the bid on which the hammer was falling.
(3) Such a sale is with reserve unless the goods are in explicit terms put up without reserve. In an auction with reserve the auctioneer may withdraw the goods at any time until the auctioneer announces completion of the sale. In an auction without reserve, after the auctioneer calls for bids on an article or lot, that article or lot cannot be withdrawn unless no bid is made within a reasonable time. In either case a bidder may retract a bid until the auctioneer’s announcement of completion of the sale, but a bidder’s retraction does not revive any previous bid.
(4) If the auctioneer knowingly receives a bid on the seller’s behalf or the seller makes or procures such a bid, and notice has not been given that liberty for such bidding is reserved, the buyer may at the buyer’s option avoid the sale or take the goods at the price of the last good faith bid prior to the completion of the sale. This subsection shall not apply to any bid at a forced sale. [1961 c.726 §72.3280; 1983 c.404 §4; 1985 c.822 §2]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.4005 - Definitions for ORS 72.4010 and 72.4030.

As used in ORS 72.4010 and 72.4030, "draft," "check," "certificate of deposit" and "note" have the meaning for those terms provided in ORS 73.0104. [1973 c.287 §4; 1993 c.545 §117]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.4020 - Rights of seller’s creditors against sold goods.

(1) Except as provided in subsections (2) and (3) of this section, rights of unsecured creditors of the seller with respect to goods which have been identified to a contract for sale are subject to the buyer’s rights to recover the goods pursuant to ORS 72.5020 and 72.7160.
(2) A creditor of the seller may treat a sale or an identification of goods to a contract for sale as void if as against the creditor a retention of possession by the seller is fraudulent under any rule of law of the state where the goods are situated, except that retention of possession in good faith and current course of trade by a merchant-seller for a commercially reasonable time after a sale or identification is not fraudulent.
(3) Nothing in this chapter shall be deemed to impair the rights of creditors of the seller:
(a) Under the provisions of ORS chapter 79 on secured transactions; or
(b) Where identification to the contract or delivery is made not in current course of trade but in satisfaction of or as security for a preexisting claim for money, security or the like and is made under circumstances which under any rule of law of the state where the goods are situated would apart from this chapter constitute the transaction a fraudulent transfer or voidable preference. [1961 c.726 §72.4020; 2001 c.445 §136]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.4030 - Power to transfer; good faith purchase of goods; "entrusting."

(1) A purchaser of goods acquires all title which the transferor had or had power to transfer except that a purchaser of a limited interest acquires rights only to the extent of the interest purchased. A person with voidable title has power to transfer a good title to a good faith purchaser for value. When goods have been delivered under a transaction of purchase the purchaser has such power even though:
(a) The transferor was deceived as to the identity of the purchaser; or
(b) The delivery was in exchange for a check which is later dishonored; or
(c) It was agreed that the transaction was to be a "cash sale"; or
(d) The delivery was procured through fraud punishable as larcenous under the criminal law.
(2) Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, when livestock has been delivered under a transaction of purchase, is transported by private, common or contract carrier and on the accompanying brand inspection certificate or memorandum of brand inspection certificate the seller has noted that as consideration for the transaction of purchase a draft, check, certificate of deposit or note was given, if the draft, check, certificate of deposit or note is later dishonored, the buyer does not have power to transfer good title to a good faith purchaser for value.
(3) Any entrusting of possession of goods to a merchant who deals in goods of that kind gives the merchant power to transfer all rights of the entruster to a buyer in ordinary course of business.
(4) "Entrusting" includes any delivery and any acquiescence in retention of possession regardless of any condition expressed between the parties to the delivery or acquiescence and regardless of whether the procurement of the entrusting of the possessor’s disposition of the goods have been such as to be larcenous under the criminal law.
(5) The rights of other purchasers of goods and of lien creditors are governed by ORS chapter 79 on secured transactions and ORS chapter 77 on documents of title. [1961 c.726 §72.4030; 1973 c.287 §2; 1991 c.83 §4; 2001 c.445 §137]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.5010 - Insurable interest in goods; manner of identification of goods.

(1) The buyer obtains a special property and an insurable interest in goods by identification of existing goods as goods to which the contract refers even though the goods so identified are nonconforming and the buyer has an option to return or reject them. Such identification can be made at any time and in any manner explicitly agreed to by the parties. In the absence of explicit agreement identification occurs:
(a) When the contract is made if it is for the sale of goods already existing and identified.
(b) If the contract is for the sale of future goods other than those described in paragraph (c) of this subsection, when goods are shipped, marked or otherwise designated by the seller as goods to which the contract refers.
(c) When the crops are planted or otherwise become growing crops or the young are conceived if the contract is for the sale of unborn young to be born within 12 months after contracting or for the sale of crops to be harvested within 12 months or the next normal harvest season after contracting whichever is longer.
(2) The seller retains an insurable interest in goods so long as title to or any security interest in the goods remains in the seller and where the identification is by the seller alone the seller may, until default or insolvency or notification to the buyer that the identification is final, substitute other goods for those identified.
(3) Nothing in this section impairs any insurable interest recognized under any other statute or rule of law. [1961 c.726 §72.5010]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.5020 - Buyer’s right to goods on seller’s repudiation, failure to deliver or insolvency.

(1) Subject to subsections (2) and (3) of this section and even though the goods have not been shipped, a buyer who has paid a part or all of the price of goods in which the buyer has a special property under the provisions of ORS 72.5010 may on making and keeping good a tender of any unpaid portion of their price recover them from the seller if:
(a) In the case of goods bought for personal, family or household purposes, the seller repudiates or fails to deliver as required by the contract; or
(b) In all cases, the seller becomes insolvent within 10 days after receipt of the first installment on their price.
(2) The buyer’s right to recover the goods under subsection (1)(a) of this section vests upon acquisition of a special property, even if the seller had not then repudiated or failed to deliver.
(3) If the identification creating the special property of the buyer has been made by the buyer the buyer acquires the right to recover the goods only if they conform to the contract for sale. [1961 c.726 §72.5020; 2001 c.104 §24; 2001 c.445 §138]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.5030 - Manner of seller’s tender of delivery.

(1) Tender of delivery requires that the seller put and hold conforming goods at the buyer’s disposition and give the buyer any notification reasonably necessary to enable the buyer to take delivery. The manner, time and place for tender are determined by the agreement and this chapter, and in particular:
(a) Tender must be at a reasonable hour, and if it is of goods they must be kept available for the period reasonably necessary to enable the buyer to take possession; but
(b) Unless otherwise agreed the buyer must furnish facilities reasonably suited to the receipt of the goods.
(2) Where the case is within ORS 72.5040 respecting shipment tender requires that the seller comply with its provisions.
(3) Where the seller is required to deliver at a particular destination tender requires that the seller comply with subsection (1) of this section and also in any appropriate case tender documents as described in subsections (4) and (5) of this section.
(4) Where goods are in the possession of a bailee and are to be delivered without being moved:
(a) Tender requires that the seller either tender a negotiable document of title covering such goods or procure acknowledgment by the bailee of the buyer’s right to possession of the goods; but
(b) Tender to the buyer of a nonnegotiable document of title or of a record directing the bailee to deliver is sufficient tender unless the buyer seasonably objects, and except as otherwise provided in ORS chapter 79 receipt by the bailee of notification of the buyer’s rights fixes those rights as against the bailee and all third persons; but risk of loss of the goods and of any failure by the bailee to honor the nonnegotiable document of title or to obey the direction remains on the seller until the buyer has had a reasonable time to present the document or direction, and a refusal by the bailee to honor the document or to obey the direction defeats the tender.
(5) Where the contract requires the seller to deliver documents:
(a) The seller must tender all such documents in correct form, except as provided in ORS 72.3230 (2) with respect to bills of lading in a set; and
(b) Tender through customary banking channels is sufficient and dishonor of a draft accompanying or associated with the documents constitutes nonacceptance or rejection. [1961 c.726 §72.5030; 2009 c.181 §30]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.5040 - Shipment by seller.

Where the seller is required or authorized to send the goods to the buyer and the contract does not require the seller to deliver them at a particular destination, then unless otherwise agreed the seller must:
(1) Put the goods in the possession of such a carrier and make such a contract for their transportation as may be reasonable having regard to the nature of the goods and other circumstances of the case; and
(2) Obtain and promptly deliver or tender in due form any document necessary to enable the buyer to obtain possession of the goods or otherwise required by the agreement or by usage of trade; and
(3) Promptly notify the buyer of the shipment.
Failure to notify the buyer under subsection (3) of this section or to make a proper contract under subsection (1) of this section is a ground for rejection only if material delay or loss ensues. [1961 c.726 §72.5040]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.5050 - Seller’s shipment under reservation.

(1) Where the seller has identified goods to the contract by or before shipment:
(a) The procurement by the seller of a negotiable bill of lading to the order of the seller or otherwise reserves in the seller a security interest in the goods. The procurement of the seller of the bill to the order of a financing agency or of the buyer indicates in addition only the seller’s expectation of transferring that interest to the person named.
(b) A nonnegotiable bill of lading to the seller or nominee of the seller reserves possession of the goods as security but except in a case of conditional delivery as provided in ORS 72.5070 (2) a nonnegotiable bill of lading naming the buyer as consignee reserves no security interest even though the seller retains possession or control of the bill of lading.
(2) When shipment by the seller with reservation of a security interest is in violation of the contract for sale it constitutes an improper contract for transportation within ORS 72.5040 but impairs neither the rights given to the buyer by shipment and identification of the goods to the contract nor the seller’s powers as a holder of a negotiable document of title. [1961 c.726 §72.5050; 2009 c.181 §31]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.5060 - Rights of financing agency.

(1) A financing agency by paying or purchasing for value a draft which relates to a shipment of goods acquires to the extent of the payment or purchase and in addition to its own rights under the draft and any document of title securing it any rights of the shipper in the goods including the right to stop delivery and the shipper’s right to have the draft honored by the buyer.
(2) The right to reimbursement of a financing agency which has in good faith honored or purchased the draft under commitment to or authority from the buyer is not impaired by subsequent discovery of defects with reference to any relevant document which was apparently regular. [1961 c.726 §72.5060; 2009 c.181 §32]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.5070 - Effect of seller’s tender; delivery on condition.

(1) Tender of delivery is a condition to the buyer’s duty to accept the goods and, unless otherwise agreed, to the duty of the buyer to pay for them. Tender entitles the seller to acceptance of the goods and to payment according to the contract.
(2) Where payment is due and demanded on the delivery to the buyer of goods or documents of title, the right of the buyer as against the seller to retain or dispose of them is conditional upon the buyer’s making the payment due. [1961 c.726 §72.5070]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.5080 - Cure by seller of improper tender or delivery; replacement.

(1) Where any tender or delivery by the seller is rejected because nonconforming and the time for performance has not yet expired, the seller may seasonably notify the buyer of the seller’s intention to cure and may then within the contract time make a conforming delivery.
(2) Where the buyer rejects a nonconforming tender which the seller had reasonable grounds to believe would be acceptable with or without money allowance the seller may if the seller seasonably notifies the buyer have a further reasonable time to substitute a conforming tender. [1961 c.726 §72.5080]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.5090 - Risk of loss in the absence of breach.

(1) Where the contract requires or authorizes the seller to ship the goods by carrier:
(a) If it does not require the seller to deliver them at a particular destination, the risk of loss passes to the buyer when the goods are duly delivered to the carrier even though the shipment is under reservation as provided in ORS 72.5050; but
(b) If it does require the seller to deliver them at a particular destination and the goods are there duly tendered while in the possession of the carrier, the risk of loss passes to the buyer when the goods are there duly so tendered as to enable the buyer to take delivery.
(2) Where the goods are held by a bailee to be delivered without being moved, the risk of loss passes to the buyer:
(a) On the buyer’s receipt of possession or control of a negotiable document of title covering the goods;

(3) In any case not within subsection (1) or (2) of this section, the risk of loss passes to the buyer on receipt by the buyer of the goods if the seller is a merchant; otherwise the risk passes to the buyer on tender of delivery.
(4) The provisions of this section are subject to contrary agreement of the parties and to the provisions of ORS 72.3270 on sale on approval and ORS 72.5100 on effect of breach on risk of loss. [1961 c.726 §72.5090; 2009 c.181 §33]

(1) Where a tender or delivery of goods so fails to conform to the contract as to give a right of rejection the risk of their loss remains on the seller until cure or acceptance.
(2) Where the buyer rightfully revokes acceptance the buyer may to the extent of any deficiency in the effective insurance coverage of the buyer treat the risk of loss as having rested on the seller from the beginning.
(3) Where the buyer as to conforming goods already identified to the contract for sale repudiates or is otherwise in breach before risk of their loss has passed to the buyer, the seller may to the extent of any deficiency in the effective insurance coverage of the seller treat the risk of loss as resting on the buyer for a commercially reasonable time.

(1) Where the contract requires payment before inspection nonconformity of the goods does not excuse the buyer from so making payment unless:
(a) The nonconformity appears without inspection; or
(b) Despite tender of the required documents the circumstances would justify injunction against honor under the provisions of ORS 75.1090.
(2) Payment pursuant to subsection (1) of this section does not constitute an acceptance of goods or impair the buyer’s right to inspect or any of the remedies of the buyer. [1961 c.726 §72.5120; 1997 c.150 §4]

(3) Unless otherwise agreed and subject to the provisions of ORS 72.3210 (3) on C.I.F. contracts, the buyer is not entitled to inspect the goods before payment of the price when the contract provides:

(b) For payment against documents of title, except where such payment is due only after the goods are to become available for inspection.
(4) A place or method of inspection fixed by the parties is presumed to be exclusive but unless otherwise expressly agreed it does not postpone identification or shift the place for delivery or for passing the risk of loss.

(2) Subject to the provisions of ORS 72.6030 and 72.6040 on rejected goods:
(a) After rejection any exercise of ownership by the buyer with respect to any commercial unit is wrongful as against the seller; and
(b) If the buyer has before rejection taken physical possession of goods in which the buyer does not have a security interest under the provisions of ORS 72.7110 (3), the buyer is under a duty after rejection to hold them with reasonable care at the seller’s disposition for a time sufficient to permit the seller to remove them; but
(c) The buyer has no further obligations with regard to goods rightfully rejected.
(3) The seller’s rights with respect to goods wrongfully rejected are governed by the provisions of ORS 72.7030 on seller’s remedies in general. [1961 c.726 §72.6020]

(1) Subject to any security interest in the buyer as provided in ORS 72.7110 (3), when the seller has no agent or place of business at the market of rejection a merchant buyer is under a duty after rejection of goods in the possession or control of the merchant buyer to follow any reasonable instructions received from the seller with respect to the goods and in the absence of such instructions to make reasonable efforts to sell them for the seller’s account if they are perishable or threaten to decline in value speedily. Instructions are not reasonable if on demand indemnity for expenses is not forthcoming.
(2) When the buyer sells goods under subsection (1) of this section, the buyer is entitled to reimbursement from the seller or out of the proceeds for reasonable expenses of caring for and selling them, and if the expenses include no selling commission then to such commission as is usual in the trade or if there is none to a reasonable sum not exceeding 10 percent on the gross proceeds.
(3) In complying with this section the buyer is held only to good faith and good faith conduct hereunder is neither acceptance nor conversion nor the basis of an action for damages. [1961 c.726 §72.6030]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.6040 - Buyer’s options as to salvage of rightfully rejected goods.

Such action is not acceptance or conversion. [1961 c.726 §72.6040]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.6050 - Waiver of buyer’s objections by failure to particularize.

(1) The buyer’s failure to state in connection with rejection a particular defect which is ascertainable by reasonable inspection precludes the buyer from relying on the unstated defect to justify rejection or to establish breach:
(a) Where the seller could have cured it if stated seasonably; or
(b) Between merchants when the seller has after rejection made a request in writing for a full and final written statement of all defects on which the buyer proposes to rely.
(2) Payment against documents made without reservation of rights precludes recovery of the payment for defects apparent in the documents. [1961 c.726 §72.6050; 2009 c.181 §34]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.6060 - What constitutes acceptance of goods.

(1) Acceptance of goods occurs when the buyer:
(a) After a reasonable opportunity to inspect the goods signifies to the seller that the goods are conforming or that the buyer will take or retain them in spite of their nonconformity; or
(b) Fails to make an effective rejection as provided in ORS 72.6020 (1), but such acceptance does not occur until the buyer has had a reasonable opportunity to inspect them; or
(c) Does any act inconsistent with the seller’s ownership; but if such act is wrongful as against the seller it is an acceptance only if ratified by the seller.
(2) Acceptance of a part of any commercial unit is acceptance of that entire unit. [1961 c.726 §72.6060]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.6070 - Effect of acceptance; notice of breach; burden of establishing breach after acceptance; notice of claim or litigation to person answerable over.

(1) The buyer must pay at the contract rate for any goods accepted.
(2) Acceptance of goods by the buyer precludes rejection of the goods accepted and if made with knowledge of a nonconformity cannot be revoked because of it unless the acceptance was on the reasonable assumption that the nonconformity would be seasonably cured but acceptance does not of itself impair any other remedy provided by this chapter for nonconformity.
(3) Where a tender has been accepted:
(a) The buyer must within a reasonable time after the buyer discovers or should have discovered any breach notify the seller of breach or be barred from any remedy; and
(b) If the claim is one for infringement or the like pursuant to ORS 72.3120 (3) and the buyer is sued as a result of such a breach the buyer must so notify the seller within a reasonable time after the buyer receives notice of the litigation or be barred from any remedy over for liability established by the litigation.
(4) The burden is on the buyer to establish any breach with respect to the goods accepted.
(5) Where the buyer is sued for breach of a warranty or other obligation for which the seller is answerable over:
(a) The buyer may give the seller written notice of the litigation. If the notice states that the seller may come in and defend and that if the seller does not do so the seller will be bound in any action against the seller by the buyer by any determination of fact common to the two litigations, then unless the seller after seasonable receipt of the notice does come in and defend the seller is so bound.
(b) If the claim is one for infringement or the like pursuant to ORS 72.3120 (3) the original seller may demand in writing that the buyer turn over to the seller control of the litigation including settlement or else be barred from any remedy over and if the seller also agrees to bear all expense and to satisfy any adverse judgment, then unless the buyer after seasonable receipt of the demand does turn over control the buyer is so barred.
(6) The provisions of subsections (3), (4) and (5) of this section apply to any obligation of a buyer to hold the seller harmless against infringement or the like pursuant to ORS 72.3120 (3). [1961 c.726 §72.6070]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.6080 - Revocation of acceptance in whole or in part.

(1) The buyer may revoke acceptance of a lot or commercial unit whose nonconformity substantially impairs its value to the buyer if the buyer has accepted it:
(a) On the reasonable assumption that its nonconformity would be cured and it has not been seasonably cured; or
(b) Without discovery of such nonconformity if the acceptance was reasonably induced either by the difficulty of discovery before acceptance or by the seller’s assurances.
(2) Revocation of acceptance must occur within a reasonable time after the buyer discovers or should have discovered the ground for it and before any substantial change in condition of the goods which is not caused by their own defects. It is not effective until the buyer notifies the seller of it.
(3) A buyer who so revokes has the same rights and duties with regard to the goods involved as if the buyer had rejected them. [1961 c.726 §72.6080]
2023 Oregon Revised Statutes › Volume : 02 - Business Organizations, Commercial Code › Chapter 072 - Sales › Section 72.6090 - Right to adequate assurance of performance.

(1) A contract for sale imposes an obligation on each party that the other’s expectation of receiving due performance will not be impaired. When reasonable grounds for insecurity arise with respect to the performance of either party the other may in writing demand adequate assurance of due performance and until that party receives such assurance may if commercially reasonable suspend any performance for which that party has not already received the agreed return.
(2) Between merchants the reasonableness of grounds for insecurity and the adequacy of any assurance offered shall be determined according to commercial standards.
(3) Acceptance of any improper delivery or payment does not prejudice the aggrieved party’s right to demand adequate assurance of future performance.
(4) After receipt of a justified demand failure to provide within a reasonable time not exceeding 30 days such assurance of due performance as is adequate under the circumstances of the particular case is a repudiation of the contract. [1961 c.726 §72.6090]
