Terms And Conditions

  • Purchase:

    • Customer acknowledges that the equipment purchased from Global Test Equipment is pre-owned (used) unless stated by Global Test Equipment to be new equipment.
    • Defects or discrepancies in or like objections to Equipment must be reported to Global Test Equipment in writing within five days after Customer receives the Equipment or it will be conclusively presumed that the Equipment was as ordered and was received in good condition and is accepted.
    • Global Test Equipment offers a five (5) day right of return policy unless otherwise noted. If within five days the Equipment is found to be defective or does not meet the Customer’s needs, the Equipment, upon receipt of authorization, may be returned to Global Test Equipment. Upon receipt of the returned Equipment Global Test Equipment may at its discretion provide a replacement unit to the Customer or provide a credit to the Customer’s account for the purchase price of the Equipment.
  • Warranty:

    Global Test Equipment warrants the Equipment sold against defects in material workmanship in equipment to Customer for a period of 1 year and parts and accessories for 90 days for all sales unless otherwise noted in writing. The warranty period commences at the date of shipment from the Global Test Equipment supplying location. If the Equipment, under normal use, is found to be defective within this period, Customer shall notify Global Test Equipment and immediately ship the defective Equipment, at its expense, to Global Test Equipment. Under no circumstances is the Customer authorized to break the warranty seals on the Equipment without prior approval of Global Test Equipment. Upon receipt of the defective Equipment, Global Test Equipment shall at its option repair the Equipment, supply a replacement, make a price adjustment or credit the Customer’s account. Nonpayment or delinquent payment (10 days or more past the agreed terms) “voids” warranty. In cases of shipping damage, warranty does not apply. It is customer’s responsibility to contact forwarder promptly and register a claim. Concealed damage should be reported at once and claim made to forwarder in writing. The warranty shall not apply to repairs or damage resulting from use by non-qualified personnel, misuse, abuse, neglect, broken warranty seals or use of the Equipment for purposes other than that for which it was intended. In addition, the following items sold as part of the Equipment are not warranted including CRT’s, klystrons, internal batteries, and software. The foregoing is the sole and exclusive warranty and remedy regarding Equipment purchased by Customer and is in lieu of all other warranties and remedies, whether written, oral, implied or statutory. ALL WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE ARE SPECIFICALLY EXCLUDED AND DISCLAIMED. Global Test Equipment will not be liable for any loss or damage whatever by reason of its failure to discover, report, repair or modify latent defects inherent in the design of the Equipment. WARRANTY WILL BE VOID IF PAYMENTS ARE NOT RECEIVED BY Global Test Equipment BY THE TENTH DAY AFTER ANY AGREED UPON CREDIT TERMS EXPIRE.

  • Terms of Payment

    Terms are “Due Upon Receipt of Invoice”, (from date of invoice) unless otherwise stated. If credit terms (terms) are agreed to by Global Test Equipment, payments are delinquent one day after the terms expire. Payments not received by Global Test Equipment by the tenth day after the terms expire are subject to an initial late payment fee of 1.5% of the invoice total and 1.5% for each additional thirty days after the terms expire, but not exceeding the maximum lawful rate. Global Test Equipment reserves the right to change the terms at any time when, if in Global Test Equipment’s opinion, Customer’s financial condition or previous payment record so warrants.

  • Payment and Taxes

    In addition to the price specified herein and transportation costs, the Customer is responsible for paying the gross amount of any sales tax, use tax, property tax, excise tax, value-added tax or other similar tax applicable to the sale or delivery of the Equipment or its use by the Customer. In lieu thereof, the Customer has the responsibility to furnish Global Test Equipment, in advance, with a tax exemption certificate acceptable to the taxing authorities.

  • Shipment

    All quoted prices are F.O.B. from the Global Test Equipment supplying location of which shipment is made. Delivery and shipment charges are payable by Customer. Equipment will not be sent and must not be returned by U.S. Mail. Global Test Equipment shall ship in accordance with Customer’s shipping instructions. In the absence of specific instructions, or if Customer’s instructions are deemed unsuitable, Global Test Equipment reserves the right to ship by the most appropriate method. Global Test Equipment shall not be liable for delays in delivery due to causes beyond its reasonable control including, but not limited to, acts of nature, acts of government, labor disputes, delays in transportation and delays in delivery or non-delivery by Global Test Equipment’s suppliers. Risk of loss of the Equipment passes through to the Customer at the time of delivery to a common carrier at the F.O.B. point.

  • Prices

    Global Test Equipment reserves the right to change prospectively the published prices, discounts, terms and product availability at any time without prior notice. Global Test Equipment shall retain a security interest in the Equipment until the purchase price, plus any interest incurred, is paid in full.

  • Limitation of Liability

    • Global Test Equipment’s liability on any claim of any kind (excluding death and bodily injury), whether based on contract, warranty, tort (including negligence), strict liability of service or otherwise, for any loss or damage arising out of or connected with or resulting from the supply of Equipment hereunder, shall in no case exceed the price paid by Customer to Global Test Equipment for such Equipment.
    • In no event, whether in contract, warranty, tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise, shall Global Test Equipment be liable for special, incidental, exemplary or consequential damages, including but not limited to, loss of profits or revenue, loss of use of any property, business interruption, loss of stored data, downtime costs, costs of substitute service, or claims of the Customer for such damages.
    • The good(s) sold under the Agreement were originally purchased by Global Test Equipment from other sources and are being sold under circumstances which do not permit investigation of possible risks under patents or copyrights. Global Test Equipment, therefore, assumes no obligation of Customer with respect to such risks.
    • Each of the foregoing paragraphs will apply to the full extent permitted by law. The invalidity, in whole or part, of any foregoing paragraphs will not affect the remainder of such paragraph or any other paragraph of this article.
  • Defaults
