A Dictionary of Law
2 A document transmitted from the shipper to his factor or consignee, containing the particulars and prices of the goods shipped.' A written account of the particulars of merchandise shipped to a purchaser, factor or consignee, with the value or prices and charges annexed.* Invoice cost or price. Sometimes, the prime price or cost of goods, whether there is an invoice in fact or not.' An invoice is not a bill of sale, tior is it evidence of a sale. It is a mere detailed statement of the nature, quality, and cost or price of things invoiced, and is as appropriate to a bailment as to a sale. It does not of itself necessarily indicate to whom the things are Bent, or even that they have been sent at all. Hence, standing alone, it is never regarded as evidence of title."
