To the extent you have ordered equipment that is covered by an original equipment manufacturer's warranty, your purchase is subject to the terms and conditions of the original equipment manufacturer. If you should experience problems with equipment purchased from us, please call your Account Executive with the following information:
  1. The nature of the problem;
  2. The serial number of the malfunctioning equipment; and
  3. The date of purchase.

Service After the Sale Equipment Repair Maintenance

For all the equipment we sell, we provide both repair and maintenance after the original warranty period. When possible, we perform these services in house with a 48-hour turnaround, followed by return shipping to your specified destination via UPS or other carrier. For more complex service requirements, we arrange with the original manufacturers for cost and time estimates, and then, get your approval before beginning actual repair work. Most equipment is shipped to us for our evaluation and preparation of repair estimates. For local customers (within 50 miles) we offer on-site service calls.
