(b) 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 (§ 2-513); and
(c) If delivery is authorized and made by way of documents of title
otherwise than by subsection (b) then payment is due REGARDLESS OF WHERE THE
GOODS ARE TO BE RECEIVED (I) at the time and place at which the buyer is to receive
DELIVERY OF the TANGIBLE documents [regardless of where the goods are to be
received] OR (II) 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
(d) 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.

(2) Where in a case within subsection (1) a TANGIBLE bill of lading has been

(a) Due tender of a single part is acceptable within the provisions of this
title on cure of improper delivery (subsection (1) of § 2-508); and
(b) Even though the full set is demanded, if the documents are sent from
abroad the person tendering an incomplete set may nevertheless require payment
upon furnishing an indemnity which the buyer in good faith deems adequate.

(3) Unless otherwise explicitly agreed where delivery is to be made without
moving the goods,
(a) If the seller is to deliver a TANGIBLE document of title, title passes at
the time when and the place where he delivers such documents AND IF THE SELLER IS
TO DELIVER AN ELECTRONIC DOCUMENT OF TITLE, TITLE PASSES WHEN THE
SELLER DELIVERS THE DOCUMENT; or
(b) If the goods are at the time of contracting already identified and no
documents OF TITLE are to be delivered, title passes at the time and place of
contracting.

(4) Where goods are in the possession of a bailee and are to be delivered
without being moved
