Or else, the buyer has the right to cancel the contract and get refund from the seller. So is the amended contract still a CIF contract？ Why？ Case 1: Analysis the contract is not a CIF contract because: CIF contracts are shipment contracts In the above case, the seller shall ship the goods to Hamburg not later than 5th December Or else, the buyer has the right to cancel the contract. This substantially alters the character of shipment contracts. CIF is used for symbolic delivery In the above case, the seller shall refund to the buyer if settlements have been made. This alters the characters of symbolic delivery. Case 2: An exporter in Beijing contracts with an English customer to export a lot of goods. After negotiating the price, our exporter insists on FCA Beijing while the English customer insists on FOB Tianjin. Please explain the reasons. Cas
