Definition :

To arrive at, means if in a contract of sale and pur-chase, it is provided that D should buy and R should sell to D a certain quantity of article, 'to arrive' by a certain vessel it implies something as 'on arrival' of the vessel. The word 'to' does not means that the goods 'shall' arrive, but merely that they shall be sold on their arrival. In other words such contract renders the performance conditional on a double event, the arrival in safety of the vessel and her cargo, Johnson v. MacDonald, 12 LJ Ex 99.
