WARRANTY & RETURNS


Because Seller’s supply chain involves international shipping, the only returns permitted will be for warranty returns as described in Sections 12 and 13, and returns resulting from shipping errors that are determined to be the fault of Seller. In both circumstances, appropriate documentation detailing the warranty defect (as indicated in Sections 12 and 13) or the shipping error must be provided to the Seller in order for a Return Goods Authorization (“RGA”) number to be issued. No Product may be returned directly to Seller without first obtaining an RGA number. Upon issuance of an RGA number, you will be provided instructions for product return. Freight associated with an authorized return will be paid by Seller. Buyer is required to include a copy of the purchase receipt and invoice inside the original carton showing lot numbers to receive replacement product under warranty or credit due to Seller’s shipping error. All returns will be subject to Seller’s count of product returned by Buyer. An unauthorized return, i.e. one for which an RGA number has not been issued, will be returned to Buyer at Buyer’s expense.

This limited warranty does not apply to any product that has been subject to misuse, misapplication, neglect (including without limitation, inadequate maintenance), accident, improper installation, modification, adjustment, or repair. THIS IS THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE WARRANTY GIVEN BY SELLER WITH RESPECT TO ITS PRODUCTS AND IS IN LIEU OF AND EXCLUDES ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, ARISING BY OPERATION OF LAW OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE WHETHER OR NOT THE PURPOSE OR USE HAS BEEN DISCLOSED TO SELLER IN SPECIFICATIONS, DRAWINGS OR OTHERWISE.

BUYER AGREES THAT IN NO EVENT SHALL SELLER’S LIABILITY TO BUYER AND/OR ITS CUSTOMERS EXTEND TO INCLUDE INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES. THE TERM “CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES” SHALL INCLUDE, BUT NOT BE LIMITED TO, LOSS OF ANTICIPATED PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF USE OR REVENUE, COST OF CAPITAL OR LOSS OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY OR EQUIPMENT.

No employee, agent, dealer, authorized distributor or other person is authorized to give warranties on behalf of Seller or to assume for Seller any other liability in connection with its products. If within thirty (30) days after your discovery of any warranty defects within the warranty period, you notify Seller thereof in writing, Seller shall, at customer’s option, repair, correct, replace, or refund the purchase price for that portion of the product found by Seller to be defective. Your failure to give such written notice within the applicable time period shall be deemed an absolute and unconditional waiver of your claim for such defects. Seller’s products repaired or replaced during the warranty period shall be covered by the foregoing warranty for the remainder of the original warranty period. At Seller’s request, defective products shall be returned, freight collect, to Seller’s designated repair center.
