- PRODUCT ORDER ACCEPTANCE AND CANCELLATION
You agree that your order is an offer to buy, under these Terms, all Products listed in your order. All orders must be accepted by us or we will not be obligated to sell the Products to you.
We may, in our sole discretion, choose not to accept any orders or limit or cancel items or quantities purchased per person, per household or per order. We also reserve the right to reject any order you place with us. These restrictions may include orders placed by the same Site account, the same credit card, and orders that use the same billing and/or shipping address. In the event we make a change to an order, we will attempt to notify you by contacting the e-mail, phone and/or billing address provided at the time the order was made. After having received your order, we will send you a confirmation e-mail with your order number and details of the items you have ordered. Acceptance of your order and the formation of the contract of sale between us and you will not take place unless and until you have received your order confirmation e-mail. In the event the email is undeliverable, we will attempt to contact you by phone or by mail. You have the option to cancel your order at any time before we have sent your order confirmation e-mail by calling our customer service representatives at 1-800-233-1067.
We reserve the right to discontinue the sale of any product listed on the Site at any time without notice. You acknowledge that there may be a period of time after an order has been submitted where the ordered product becomes unavailable. Products may be substituted and may not always exactly match Site descriptions and/or images. If a Product is not in stock or is otherwise unavailable for shipment following completion of the ordering process, you will be contacted to discuss the cancellation of your order under such circumstances. You agree that we may cancel your order before or after completion of the order process. You agree that we may rescind our acceptance and cancel your order without penalty if we are unable to ship the product you ordered due to unavailability. If we cancel an order after a shipping confirmation has been sent to you, we will refund all fees paid by you for the canceled Products.
- SUBSCRIPTION PROGRAM
We offer various Products, including lawn and garden products for purchase on a subscription basis ("Subscriptions"). The frequency by which a Subscription purchases and ships a Product is selected by purchaser during the checkout process. All rights and privileges conferred by a Subscription are personal and non-transferable.
Our Subscriptions provide reoccurring purchase and delivery of Products either on a schedule you choose, or at such intervals as we determine in our sole discretion based on a variety of factors, including, without limitation, seasonal factors, weather conditions, and appropriate timing for use of the Products. We will provide you with at least seven (7) days prior written notice by email of an upcoming purchase, charge, and shipment of a Product by Subscription. If you do not cancel at that time, your continued use of the Subscription reaffirms that we are authorized to charge your original payment method for such Subscription. We may submit, and you are responsible for, those charges for payment and any shipping and handling costs and sales taxes that may be imposed on your purchase of Products by Subscription. This does not waive our right to seek payment directly from you. Your charges may be payable in advance, in arrears, per usage, or as otherwise described when you initially selected to use the Subscription.
The price that we will charge you for the Products by Subscription will be the price in effect during your initial purchase or at the time we notify you by email of the impending Subscription shipment of the Products. We reserve the right to change prices for Products by Subscription at any time, and do not provide price protection or refunds in the event of promotions or price decreases.
You agree to pay all fees charged to your account based on the pricing for the Products by Subscription in effect at the time we notify you of a shipment of Products. You are also responsible for paying any sales and use taxes and shipping and handling fees that may apply to your purchase of Products based on the address that you provide as the shipping address when you register for the Subscription, and you authorize us or the Third Party Provider for payment processing that we engage to charge the payment method provided when you signed up for the Subscription. All payments shall be made by your selected payment method in advance of shipping the Products. If you do not pay on time or if your payment method cannot be charged for any reason, we reserve the right to either suspend or terminate your Subscription.
You acknowledge and agree that the Subscription shall continue in full force and effect until you terminate the Subscription pursuant to the instructions set forth below.
We may terminate your Subscription at our discretion without prior notice by sending you an email to that effect. If we do so, you will only be charged for orders that have been dispatched to you prior to such termination.
- PRICES AND PAYMENT TERMS
All prices posted on this Site are subject to change without notice. Such prices are quoted in United States dollars and are valid and effective only within the United States. The price charged for a Product will be the price in effect at the time the order is placed and will be set out in your order confirmation e-mail. Posted prices do not include taxes or charges for shipping and handling. All such taxes and charges will be added to your total and will be itemized in your shopping cart and in your order confirmation e-mail. We are not responsible for pricing, typographical or other errors in any offer by us and we reserve the right to cancel any orders arising from such errors.
Terms of payment are within our sole discretion and payment must be received by our Third Party Provider of payment processing services before our acceptance of an order. Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover cards are accepted for all purchases. You represent and warrant that (i) the credit card information you supplied is true, correct and complete, (ii) you are duly authorized to use such credit card for the purchase, (iii) charges incurred by you will be honored by your credit card company, and (iv) you will pay charges incurred by you at the posted prices, including all applicable taxes, if any.
- SHIPMENTS AND DELIVERY
We will arrange for shipment of the Products to you. Shipping costs are charged, based on the published shipping rates within the Shipping & Delivery section of the website. Shipping & Handling charges to be applied to your order are first outlined in the Shopping Cart within the Order Summary section. A complete shipping rates chart & terms can be found by clicking Shipping & Tracking in the HELP section at the bottom of every page. These published rates do not apply in situations where a promotional shipping offer is applied to an order.
We offer shipping to all United States addresses, excluding Alaska and Hawaii. We do not ship orders outside the United States. We do not ship orders to APO/FPO addresses or P.O. boxes. Order information such as a billing or shipping address that is inaccurate or incomplete may result in delays. Products cannot be shipped to incomplete addresses. We are not liable for late or lost deliveries.
- RETURNS, DAMAGES, LOST SHIPMENTS, AND MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE

- GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION
All matters arising out of or relating to these Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Pennsylvania, United States without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Pennsylvania or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Pennsylvania. Subject to the obligation for dispute resolution and binding arbitration set forth below, you hereby irrevocably consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts of State of Pennsylvania in all disputes arising out of or relating to the matters out of or relating to these Terms and waive any defense of lack of personal jurisdiction or improper venue or forum non conveniens to a claim brought in such courts, except that we may elect, in our sole direction, to litigate the action in the country, county, state or other governmental, political or administrative division where any breach by you occurred or where you can be found. Use of the Site is unauthorized in any jurisdiction that does not give effect to all provisions of these Terms, including without limitation this Section.
- DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND BINDING ARBITRATION
YOU AND LEBANON SEABOARD CORPORATION 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 (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, WHETHER PRE-EXISTING, PRESENT OR FUTURE, AND INCLUDING STATUTORY, CONSUMER PROTECTION, COMMON LAW, INTENTIONAL TORT, INJUNCTIVE AND EQUITABLE CLAIMS) BETWEEN YOU AND US ARISING FROM OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO YOUR PURCHASE OF PRODUCTS OR SERVICES THROUGH THE SITE, WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION.
The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules (the "AAA Rules") then in effect, except as modified by this Section 24. (The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org/arb_med or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.) The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this section.
The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to arbitrability and/or enforceability of this arbitration provision, including any unconscionability challenge or any other challenge that the arbitration provision or the Terms are void, voidable or otherwise invalid. The arbitrator will be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in court under law or in equity. Any award of the arbitrator(s) will be final and binding on each of the parties, and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
If you prevail on any claim that affords the prevailing party attorneys' fees, the arbitrator may award reasonable fees to you under the standards for fee shifting provided by law.
You agree to an arbitration on an individual basis. In any dispute, NEITHER YOU NOR LEBANON SEABOARD CORPORATION WILL BE ENTITLED TO JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS BY OR AGAINST OTHER CUSTOMERS IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION OR OTHERWISE PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLAIM AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, CLASS MEMBER OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY. The arbitral tribunal may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitral tribunal has no power to consider the enforceability of this class arbitration waiver and any challenge to the class arbitration waiver may only be raised in a court of competent jurisdiction.
If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be severed and the remaining arbitration terms will be enforced.
- ASSIGNMENT
You will not assign any of your rights or delegate any of your obligations under these Terms without our prior written consent. Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this Section is null and void. No assignment or delegation relieves you of any of your obligations under these Terms.
- NO THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES
Except as expressly stated otherwise elsewhere in these Terms, no person other than the parties themselves has any rights or remedies under this agreement.
- WAIVER AS A CLASS ACTION MEMBER
You agree that any arbitration will be limited to the Dispute between Company and you individually. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU AND COMPANY ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. Further, unless both you and Company otherwise agree, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, you waive any right to a jury trial.
- YOU HAVE LIMITED TIME TO BRING A LEGAL CLAIM
YOU AGREE THAT ANY CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE MUST COMMENCE WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES. OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
