delivery. Prices are subject to change. Changes in material and

delivery, call your BSI Sales Representative for immediate inspection
by the delivering carrier. Notification of concealed damages must
be made within 15 days after delivery of merchandise. Carrier liability

delivery of merchandise. It is the customer’s responsibility
to inspect delivered products.
