Under a contract containing a term C.I.F. or C. & F.
   (1) Where the price is based on or is to be adjusted according to
"net landed weights," "delivered weights," "out turn" quantity or
quality or the like, unless otherwise agreed the seller must
reasonably estimate the price.  The payment due on tender of the
documents called for by the contract is the amount so estimated, but
after final adjustment of the price a settlement must be made with
commercial promptness.
   (2) An agreement described in subdivision (1) or any warranty of
quality or condition of the goods on arrival places upon the seller
the risk of ordinary deterioration, shrinkage and the like in
transportation but has no effect on the place or time of
identification to the contract for sale or delivery or on the passing
of the risk of loss.
   (3) Unless otherwise agreed where the contract provides for
payment on or after arrival of the goods the seller must before
payment allow such preliminary inspection as is feasible; but if the
goods are lost delivery of the documents and payment are due when the
goods should have arrived.
