ORS 83.050
Contracts completed by mail and based on catalog of seller

(1)

Retail installment contracts negotiated and entered into by mail without personal solicitation by salesmen or other representatives of the seller and based upon a catalog of the seller, or other printed solicitation of business, if such catalog or other printed solicitation clearly sets forth the cash sale prices and other terms of sales to be made through such medium, may be made as provided in this section. The provisions of ORS 83.010 (Definitions for ORS 83.010 to 83.190) to 83.190 (Civil penalties) with respect to retail installment contracts shall be applicable to such sales, except that the retail installment contract, when completed by the buyer need not contain the items required by ORS 83.030 (Contents of contract).

(2)

When the contract is received from the retail buyer, the seller shall prepare a written memorandum containing all of the information required by ORS 83.030 (Contents of contract) to be included in a retail installment contract. In lieu of delivering a copy of the contract to the retail buyer as provided in ORS 83.070 (Delivery of copy of contract to buyer), the seller shall deliver to the buyer a copy of such memorandum prior to the due date of the first installment payable under the contract. However, if the catalog or other printed solicitation does not set forth all of the other terms of sales in addition to the cash sale prices, such memorandum shall be delivered to the buyer prior to or at the time of delivery of the goods or services.
