Title 13 - COMMERCIAL CODE
Chapter 23 - General Obligation and Construction of Contract
Section 2321 - C.I.F. or C. & F.: "net landed weights"; "payment on arrival"; warranty of condition on arrival

     § 2321.  C.I.F. or C. & F.: "net landed weights"; "payment on
                arrival"; warranty of condition on arrival.
        Under a contract containing a term C.I.F. or C. & F.:
            (1)  Where the price is based on or is to be adjusted
        according to "net landed weights," "delivered weights," "out
        turn" quantity or quality or the like, unless otherwise
        agreed the seller must reasonably estimate the price. The
        payment due on tender of the documents called for by the
        contract is the amount so estimated, but after final
        adjustment of the price a settlement must be made with
        commercial promptness.
            (2)  An agreement described in paragraph (1) or any
        warranty of quality or condition of the goods on arrival
        places upon the seller the risk of ordinary deterioration,
        shrinkage and the like in transportation but has no effect on
        the place or time of identification to the contract for sale
        or delivery or on the passing of the risk of loss.
            (3)  Unless otherwise agreed where the contract provides
        for payment on or after arrival of the goods the seller must
        before payment allow such preliminary inspection as is
        feasible; but if the goods are lost delivery of the documents
        and payment are due when the goods should have arrived.
