Answer 1

errors and omissions excepted

Answer 2

According to the great wikipedia "E&OE is an initialism standing for errors and omissions excepted. The phrase is used in an attempt to reduce legal liability for incorrect or incomplete information supplied in a contractually related document such as a price list, quotation or specification. It is often applied as a disclaimer in situations in which the information to which it is applied is relatively fast moving. In legal terms, it seeks to make a statement that information cannot be relied upon, or may have changed by the time of use."



Excepted and excluded means the same thing.

Answer 3

Errors and Omissions Excepted.

Answer 4

errors and ommisions excluded.

kind of means...I've sent you something (like an invoice) and if I have made a balls up and not billed you right then I will send you another one with the inflated amount so don't think you are off the hook.

Legal but not ethical.
