(ii) Default on delivery: This refers to the situationwhere the wrong goods are delivered at the right place, or the right goods are delivered at the wrong place, or the goods are not delivered.

(iii) Default on payment: This refers to the situation in which the seller does not receive payment, while the buyer claims that he or she has made payment.
