SPEP assumes no responsibility for any such damage or loss or for transportation delays. We are also not responsible for insuring shipments unless specified by the customer, in which event such insurance shall be based on the customer’s valuation and at the customer’s expense.

Can I change my order?
Yes, you can change your order. Change requests made after production has started will convert the order to a time and cost of materials basis unless we’ve agreed in writing to a price revision that reflects the cost of the changes. No changes may be made without SPEP’s prior written authorization.
