3. SITE CONTENT AND ORDERS

Please understand that we have made every effort to display the products featured on our Website as accurately as possible. However, the colors we use, as well as the display and color capabilities of your particular computer monitor, will affect the colors you actually see on the screen. Renfro is not responsible for the limitations of your monitor and cannot guarantee that your monitor's display of any color, texture, or detail of merchandise will be accurate. If you are unhappy with your purchase for any reason, you may simply return the item. Click here for our Return Policy.

We reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies or omissions and to change or update information at any time without prior notice (including after you have submitted your order). We reserve the right at any time after receipt of your order to accept or decline your order, or any portion thereof, even after your receipt of an order confirmation. For example, in the event that a product is listed at an incorrect price, we shall have the right to refuse or cancel orders placed for the product listed at the incorrect price, regardless of whether the order has been confirmed and/or your credit card charged. If your credit card has already been charged for the purchase and your order is canceled, we will promptly issue a credit to your credit card account in the amount of the incorrect price. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you. We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to limit the quantity of items purchased and to prohibit sales to dealers. Prices are subject to change at any time.

You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your login. Renfro shall not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with these obligations. Please note that you do not need to create a user account in order to order products from the Website, however, doing so has certain advantages including the ability to recall your order history, track the status of a yet undelivered order, and to avoid having to type in certain information when you make an order.

These limitations shall apply notwithstanding any failure of essential purpose or the existence of any limited remedy. Because some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, or the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, the above limitations may not apply to you.

Any dispute arising under these Terms or in connection with your use of the Sites shall be resolved exclusively by the state and/or federal courts of the State of North Carolina, Surry County and/or the Middle District of North Carolina.

15. ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION

When you visit or use the Sites or Online Services, or send e-mails to us, you are communicating with us electronically. You consent to receive communications from us electronically. We will communicate with you by e-mail or by posting notices on the Sites. You agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications that we provide to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing and are deemed to be given and received on the date we transmit any such electronic communication.

16. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

YOU AND RENFRO ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP ANY RIGHTS TO LITIGATE CLAIMS IN A COURT OR BEFORE A JURY, OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION WITH RESPECT TO A CLAIM. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT MAY ALSO BE UNAVAILABLE OR MAY BE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION.

Any claim, dispute, or controversy (regardless of the cause of action or nature of the claim) between you and Renfro, its agents, employees, successors, assigns, direct and indirect subsidiaries, and any third party providing any products or services to you or Renfro in connection with the Sites or Online Services, or arising from or relating in any way to your use of the Sites or Online Services, these Terms, or the interpretation, breach, termination, or validity thereof, shall be resolved exclusively and finally by binding arbitration. The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the enforceability of this arbitration provision including any unconscionability challenge or any other challenge that the arbitration provision or these Terms is void, voidable, or otherwise invalid. The arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). Arbitration proceedings shall be governed by this provision and the applicable procedures of AAA. You agree to an arbitration on an individual basis and agree to hereby waive any right to pursue any class action or collective claim or action. Regardless of any law to the contrary, any claim against Renfro must be filed within one year of the time such claim arose, otherwise such claim will be barred forever. If any provision of this arbitration provision is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision shall be severed and the remaining arbitration terms shall be enforced, but in no case shall there be a class arbitration. Any award of the arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding on each of the parties, and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

16. VIOLATION OF THESE TERMS AND REMEDIES

Renfro may, in its sole discretion and without prior notice, block and/or terminate your access to the Sites and Online Services if we determine that you have violated these Terms or other terms or agreements or that may be associated therewith. You hereby agree that any violation, or threatened violation, by you of these Terms will cause irreparable harm to Renfro, and therefore you agree that Renfro shall be entitled to injunctive or equitable relief without the necessity of posting a bond, in addition to any other available remedies.

17. GENERAL PROVISIONS

If, for any reason, a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines any provision of these Terms, our Privacy Policy, or any portion thereof to be unenforceable, such provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permissible so as to give the intended effect thereof, and the remainder of these Terms, Return Policy, Shipping and Returns, and Privacy Policy shall continue in full force and effect. Renfro’s failure to act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive our right to act with respect to that breach or subsequent or similar breaches. No consent or waiver by Renfro hereof will be deemed effective unless in writing. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, Return Policy, Shipping and Returns, as each is currently posted on the Sites, constitute the entire agreement between Renfro and you with respect to your use of the Sites and the Online Services and supersede all previous written or oral agreements relating to the subject matter hereof.
