Orders

The preprinted terms of any documents, such as purchase orders, that you may submit to us in conjunction with an order for products or materials will not alter, change or add to these Terms of Sale, regardless of how we acknowledge or accept your order and regardless of the fact that such preprinted terms may contain language stipulating that they supersede these Terms of Sale or this Agreement. All orders are deemed to have been placed and accepted in Fort Collins, Colorado. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and once accepted, an order cannot be cancelled, modified or rescheduled by you without our consent. We reserve the right to reject or cancel any order, or to limit the size of any order, at any time in our sole discretion.

Roberto’s Salsa reserves the right to discontinue the sale of any Item at any time without notice to you or any other third party.

Prices

Prices for any Items included within a Listing shall be as set forth at the Website from time to time. We reserve the right to increase the price for any Item without notice to you (provided, that we will not increase prices for Items which have been previously ordered by you in accordance with this Agreement but not yet shipped). We are not responsible for any errors on the Website. In the event an Item is listed at an incorrect price due to typographical, photographic or technical error or error in pricing information received from our suppliers, distributors or manufacturers, we reserve the right to refuse or cancel any orders placed for that Item listed at the incorrect price.
