Bus/Financial - Transport / Transportation / Shipping
German term or phrase: frei Empfangsstelle
This is part of a price quotation for supplies/services:

Die Preise (Nettopreise) gelten frei Empfangsstelle.

As far as I understand, the price should include delivery to the point of destination (to the buyer's door?) I have not had much luck finding an English equivalent. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks very much. I got too wrapped up looking for an official equivalent in INCOterms. This is absolutely on the mark, of course. SwissTell, I think your answer was also accurate.

neutral  Armorel Young: Where do these phrases come from? They don't sound like English and neither gets a single hit on Google.
