47-2310. Open time for payment or running of
credit; authority to ship under reservation
Unless otherwise agreed:
1. Payment is due at the time and place at which the buyer is to receive the goods
even though the place of shipment is the place of delivery; and
2. If the seller is authorized to send the goods he may ship them under
reservation, and may tender the documents of title, but the buyer may inspect the goods
after their arrival before payment is due unless such inspection is inconsistent with the
terms of the contract (section 47-2513); and
3. If delivery is authorized and made by way of documents of title otherwise than
by paragraph 2 then payment is due regardless of where the goods are to be received:
(a) At the time and place at which the buyer is to receive delivery of the tangible
documents; or
(b) At the time the buyer is to receive delivery of the electronic documents and at
the seller's place of business or, if none, the seller's residence; and
4. Where the seller is required or authorized to ship the goods on credit the
credit period runs from the time of shipment but postdating the invoice or delaying its
dispatch will correspondingly delay the starting of the credit period.
