RMA terms

  • Before shipping any goods, buyer must contact the seller and follow the seller’s instructions. If purchased from a reseller – contact the reseller rather than Compulab. The reseller is committed to providing identical RMA service to that of Compulab.
  • In many cases the observed issues do not stem from a hardware failure and a support engineer can help troubleshoot them on-site.
  • Buyer is advised to become familiar with warranty terms
  • Every unit undergoes complete functional testing at the factory before shipping.
  • RMA shipping from the buyer to the seller is on buyer expense.
  • Shipping back is on seller expense unless:
    • Warranty is void due to expiration or user damage.
    • RMA is found to be unjustified since hardware is in good working order.

Repair duration

  • Stock configuration units are normally replaced as soon as the unit arrives at the seller’s facility and undergoes inspection. Replacement normally takes place within 1 week.
  • Custom configuration units are normally repaired and shipped back. The procedure normally takes up to one month.

Repair service in cases where warranty does not apply

  • Warranty may be void due to expiration or user damage.
  • Service is provided at fixed rates:

  • Product examination / testing – $50, for all products regardless of test results.
  • Product repair – $80, only for repaired products.
  • CompuLab does not guarantee that it will be able to repair the product.
  • Failing products are discarded; only functional products are shipped back.
  • Shipment costs in both directions and taxes, if any, are covered by the buyer.
