Terms and Conditions


Freight

Price quotes are FOB Sacramento, California. Prices are subject to change without notice.
 

Acceptance

All orders are subject to approval by MD Purchase. MD Purchase reserves the right to alter the design or form of any product or to discontinue any product.
Line of Credit

MD Purchase reserves the right to refuse orders, suspend credit, and cancel unfulfilled orders when credit conditions of a customer warrant such action.
 

Shipments, Damages and Shortages

All orders are shipped via FedEx or USPS unless customer requests otherwise.  If special requests are granted, additional handling charges will be applied to the invoice in order to cover the processing and delivery charges. MD Purchase assumes no responsibility or liability for unforeseen delays in making delivery. The customer shall inspect all items upon arrival and give written notice to MD Purchase of any claim for a shortage, non-conformance or damage within 24 business hours after receipt of shipment. NO CONSIDERATIONS FOR THESE CONDITIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED AFTER 24 HOURS OF RECEIPT OF GOODS. MD Purchase will make every effort to ship a replacement as quickly as possible.
 

Return Policy

A returned goods authorization number (RGA) must be obtained prior to returning any product(s) to MD Purchase. Returns can only be granted and authorized by obtaining an RGA number, which can be obtained by calling or emailing MD Purchase customer service. Product(s) returned without an RGA number will be returned to the customer or distributor, at our cost, with a letter of explanation. Issuance of an RGA number should not be interpreted as a final credit to your customer account. MD Purchase reserves the right to evaluate incoming returns prior to issuing any customer credit. There will be a 20% restocking fee for products returned after 30 days but before 45 days after receipt of shipment. Product(s) must be returned in its original packaging. No returns will be accepted 45 days from receipt of shipment. The following products cannot be returned: sterile products, which have been opened or returned after the expiration date, products which are not in original packaging, products with a private label, custom made products, or custom etched products.
 
Many problems can be traced to:
  • Improper handling or abuse
  • Exposure to improper solutions and elements in the operating room
  • Inadequate cleaning, improper rinsing and drying immediately after use
  • Water quality
  • Use of tap water rather than demineralized distilled water
  • Improper pH detergents
  • Poor lubrication
  • Improperly maintained equipment or mechanical changes in hospital piping or supply

Instrument repair, when possible, represents a significant cost savings over replacement.

Warranty
