(collectively 'the Site'). Please read these terms and conditions (the 'Terms and Conditions') carefully. BY USING THE SITE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY
THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
These Terms and Conditions govern your use of, and any purchase from, the Bio-Bridge Science Site, and constitute an agreement between you and
Bio-Bridge Science. Bio-Bridge Science reserves the right to change or modify any of these Terms and Conditions or any policy or guideline of the
Site at any time, and in its sole discretion. Any change or modification will be effective immediately upon posting of the revisions on the Site.
Your continued use of the Site following the posting of its changes or modifications will constitute your acceptance of such changes or modifications.

Product Availability and Pricing
If you're interested in an instrument that is currently on back order, call us and we can give you an estimate on when the item will be back in stock.
Sometimes with the volume of orders we receive, an item may go out of stock before we are able to post a notification on the Site. If this happens, we
will contact you directly to discuss possible options.
Data, including prices, may be inaccurately displayed on our Site due to system or typographical errors. While we make every attempt to avoid these
errors, they may occur. We reserve the right to correct any and all errors when they do occur, and we do not honor inaccurate or erroneous prices.
If a product's listed price is lower than its actual price, we will, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before shipping the product
or cancel the order and notify you of such cancellation. If the order has been shipped, you agree to either return the product or pay the difference
between the actual and charged prices. Our prices are also subject to change without notice. We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact one of our customer service representatives at bbs@bbsinstruments.com or 630-613-9687
Information on our Site
At Bio-Bridge Science, we make every attempt to ensure that our online catalog is as accurate and complete as possible. In order to give you the
opportunity to view our products in great detail, some products may appear larger or smaller than their actual size in our photographs; and since
every computer monitor is set differently, color and size may vary slightly. Images used may be representative of the item type and may not be
the exact picture of the item number described.
Our objective is to provide you with as much information and detail about your prospective purchase. On the Site, we provide the measurement of our
products based on our manufacturers specifications. Slight tolerances may be accounted for based on finishing during the manufacturing process.
