Heading: The Conspicuousness of the Clause

Text: Our considerations regarding the conspicuousness of the clause [15] are the same as whether the important terms were hidden in a maze of fine print; [16] therefore, we will evaluate these factors together. The invoice from Unisearch consists of a single sheet of paper with the liability disclaimer typed on the front of the document. The clause, Liability Limited to Amount of Fee appears on the upper right-hand portion of the invoice, inside a shaded box. [17] The clause is written in the same font size as other print on the invoice, albeit smaller than the address on the invoice. There are only a few lines of text on the invoice. Factors asserts that the writing was inconspicuous because it was blue print on a blue background. Having inspected a copy of the invoice, we conclude that the clause is not hidden in a maze of fine print and is not inconspicuous. Am. Nursery, 115 Wash.2d at 222, 797 P.2d 477 (citing Schroeder, 86 Wash.2d at 260, 544 P.2d 20).
