§490:2-512 Payment by buyer before inspection. (1) Where the contract requires payment before inspection nonconformity of the goods does not excuse the buyer from so making payment unless: (a) The nonconformity appears without inspection; or (b) Despite tender of the required documents the circumstances would justify injunction against honor under this chapter (section 490:5-109(b)). (2) Payment pursuant to subsection (1) does not constitute an acceptance of goods or impair the buyer's right to inspect or any of the buyer's remedies.
