Title; risk of loss; FOB Gianna Violins

Purchaser agrees that items shipped in original cases or manufacturer's cases provided with or for that manufacturer's instruments are properly packed when shipped in those cases in the manner that the manufacturer ships those instruments. Purchaser agrees to reimburse Gianna Violins for shipping and handling of improperly rejected items.
