FAQ

Products & Prices

All our products are shown on our web site, and all available information such as product brochures and owner’s manuals are available for downloading.

From the beginning, we decided that we weren’t going to play games with our pricing. We believe that it’s only fair for everybody to pay the same price for the same product, and that people know what their costs will be from the start. Therefore, the product prices we will quote you will be those shown on our web site. Shipping costs will of course vary depending on destination and service level desired.

We try to keep our prices unchanged in any calendar year. For the convenience of our customers we show on our web site (and will quote and will charge) US Dollars (USD). The prices shown on this web site will always be current, and the same as we will quote to you.

No. We would have to charge our customers a realistic rental covering things like preparation, wear and tear, cleanup, restocking plus shipping costs both ways. We’ve found that these unavoidable rental cost factors are almost always prohibitive.

This type of equipment is quite specialized and demand is therefore fairly limited. Because of the relatively low sales volumes, we cannot justify the costs of obtaining and maintaining formal code registrations (CE, UL, CSA, etc.). We make our potential customers aware of this before they purchase our equipment, and so far it has never been a problem, for any of our customers. However, if you, your customer, or some other authority such as your government does require formal code registrations on equipment as this, we would not be able to provide what you need.

Payment & Shipping

We accept payment by credit card (Visa and Mastercard and only in USD) and Paypal. Other options are possible but are to be discussed during the cotation process.

Definitely. We do this all the time, and there are rarely any problems. We provide all the necessary international shipping information and documents with UPS and others.

No, we sell all our products directly to our end users. We have found that this works very well, and allows us to offer the lowest possible prices and most responsive service.

We’ve never had a problem yet. UPS, the courier we are using, can deliver a shipment right to your door with all formalities such customs clearance taken care of, at a reasonable cost.

We make every effort to have all of our products in stock, ready for immediate shipment. Occasionally, we may be temporarily out of stock of a particular item but even then the delay involved should not normally be more than two weeks or three.

We use UPS. We will prepay the shipping costs.

We are located in Québec Canada. Standard (ground) courier service is the most economical for shipments within North America, and will generally take from 2 to 5 business days.
Air freight is the only service usually available for shipments outside North America. We will be happy to discuss the various options available to you, and provide information such as transit times and shipping costs.

Essential information for all shipments includes:

Company name
Full shipping address with postal / zip code
Name of contact person
Telephone number of contact person
For shipments to the United States, we also need your company’s Federal Tax ID number, for US Customs documents.

Although not essential, an email address for a contact person is very useful for providing information such as shipment confirmation and expected delivery date, and for resolving any questions or problems that may arise.

Miscellaneous

No. As with our pricing policy, we believe in treating all potential customers fairly and in exactly the same way. We will not enter into arrangements that give a particular purchaser any exclusive or preferential treatment or rights. We will quote the same prices and conditions to anybody who asks.

Have no fear. We will never provide any customer information to third parties without your express permission.
