Prices are subject to change at any time prior to acceptance of your order by PLCH. Price comparisons are shown throughout the Website to indicate relative discounts of our pricing versus the Retail. Retail price is an estimated retail price to the best of our knowledge. Actual retail prices in your area may be substantially different. Discount reflects the difference between our price and estimated retail price shown on our Website. Because the retail prices shown on our Website may be different than the actual current retail prices in your area, you may not realize savings in the amount shown and may want to make alternative comparisons by checking the prices of other Internet or local retailers prior to making a purchase.

In the event of cancellation or other withdrawal of an order containing Products with status other than "in-stock" for any reason, and without limiting any other remedy which PLCH may have as a result of such cancellation or other withdrawal, reasonable cancellation or restocking charges shall include all expenses incurred and commitments made by PLCH as it pertains to procurement of Products for that order, and shall be paid by Customer to PLCH.

Shipments within the United States. PLCH will add sales tax to the sale of a taxable order for delivery within any US jurisdiction where PLCH is required to collect and remit sales tax. Customer will see the sales tax amount calculated on the checkout page before confirming the order. Customer must claim any exemption from sales taxes at the time of purchase by emailing to compliance@plchardware.com, with a legally acceptable proof of a direct pay permit and/or a tax exempt certificate, as applicable. The proof of exemption must be owned by the Customer and issued by the state that has jurisdiction over the transaction. Customer will be liable to PLCH for any sales tax due if a subsequent tax audit determines that the Customer provided incomplete or invalid documentation, unless the Customer provides additional documentation to correct any deficiencies in accordance with applicable state laws and regulations and audit requirements. PLCH will not be liable for any tax that the Customer is required to bill, collect, and/or remit as a result of sales of products made by the Customer. Customer will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless PLCH against all losses, penalties, interest, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of any claims relating to such tax liability.
International Shipments. All applicable VAT, PST, HST, and/or GST charges along with brokerage fees will be the responsibility of Customer and due at the time of delivery.

Shipment and Delivery Dates. PLCH will aim to initiate shipment and deliver Products as close as possible to Customer's requested delivery date(s). In general, orders for "in-stock" Products will be shipped the same day if received and paid in full before 6.00 PM Eastern Standard Time. If received after the shipping deadline, orders will generally be shipped on the following business day. Orders for "pre-order" Products will be shipped within the period indicated in the Inventory & Pricing section of the Website at the time the order is submitted to PLCH. Customer acknowledges that shipment and delivery dates provided by PLCH are estimates only and that PLCH will not be liable for failure to achieve such dates. For avoidance of doubt delivery of Products within 30 days of the requested delivery date shall constitute timely delivery. Delay in delivery of one installment will not entitle Customer to cancel any other installment(s).
Title and Risk of Loss. Selection of a carrier and delivery route will be made by PLCH unless specifically designated by Customer. If Customer provides PLCH with Customer’s carrier account number, title to Products and risk of loss or damage during shipment passes from PLCH to Customer upon surrender of Products to the carrier (F.O.B. Origin, freight collect). For all other shipments, title to Products and risk of loss or damage during shipment passes from PLCH to Customer upon delivery to a specified destination (F.O.B. Destination, freight prepaid and added).
Export Controls. Products purchased are subject to export control laws, restrictions, regulations and orders of the United States. All orders of international origin are exported from the U.S. in accordance with Export Administration Regulations. Customer agrees to comply with all applicable export laws, restrictions and regulations of the United States or foreign agencies or authorities, and shall not export, or transfer for the purpose of re-export, any Product to any prohibited or embargoed country or to any denied, blocked, or designated person or entity as mentioned in any such United States or foreign law or regulation. Customer represents and warrants that it is not on the Denied Persons, Specially Designated Nationals or Debarred Persons List and is not otherwise prohibited by law from purchasing the Products or services hereunder. Customer shall be responsible for obtaining any required license to export, re-export or import.

PLCH warrants to Customer that all hardware Products sold by PLCH are covered by PLCH Replacement Warranty during the warranty period. The warranty period begins to run on the date the Product is shipped to Customer (the invoice date). The warranty period is set forth as follows:
All Products are covered by 1 Year PLCH Replacement Warranty.
PLCH is not an Authorized Distributor of the products thus manufacturer’s warranties do not apply. Customers must check manufacturer’s website for further information.
Customer must notify PLCH of any defective Product within warranty period. Warranties offered by PLCH are subject to acceptance of and compliance with PLCH Terms. If return under warranty is required, we will replace the defective Product within the warranty period, provided that such Product is returned to PLCH by Customer in accordance with PLCH Return Policy. Products returned under PLCH warranty may be replaced with refurbished, used or repaired Products. The replacement is our sole obligation for any breach of warranty. In a case where, after a reasonable number of attempts, we are unable to provide a replacement Product that meets the above warranty, we will refund the purchase price for that Product, as our sole obligation and your sole remedy.
The warranty will be void if, upon examination of the Product, it is determined by PLCH that the defect had occurred as a result of misuse, neglect, alteration, improper installation, accident, unauthorized repair or improper testing; or the serial numbers or date codes mismatch the originally sold Product or were removed or defaced.
EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS WARRANTY SECTION, ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, TERMS AND CONDITIONS (WHETHER STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE) ARE EXCLUDED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. IN PARTICULAR, PLCH MAKES NO WARRANTY RESPECTING THE MERCHANTABILITY OF THE PRODUCTS OR THEIR SUITABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE OR RESPECTING INFRINGEMENT.

Return Material Authorization (RMA) Number. No returns of any type will be accepted by PLCH unless accompanied by a unique RMA number, which Customer must obtain by submitting online Return Authorization Request or emailing to returns@plchardware.com prior to return. The following information must be provided by Customer to obtain RMA: Customer’s name, applicable invoice number, serial number of the Product, and details of Customer’s issue with the Product. Customer has 14 calendar days to return the Product after the applicable RMA is issued. PLCH reserves the right to refuse any UNAUTHORIZED returns: those that occur after the 14 day period or those involving Products that are unaccompanied by a valid RMA.
Defective Product Returns. Customer may return most defective Products to PLCH within the warranty period specified in the Warranty Terms section of the present Terms and receive, at PLCH's option, replacement, repair or refund.
Non-Defective Product Returns. Customer may request Return of working Products within 14 calendar days of invoice date. PLCH will review all requests on a case-by-case basis. If Return Authorization is granted, a restocking fee of 15% of the original purchase price will be retained and PLCH will issue a refund for the remainder of the amount, provided that PLCH receives the Product within 30 calendar days of invoice date and in the same condition in which it was originally delivered. Products received after 30 calendar days of invoice date and/or not in the same condition will not be accepted.
Returned Products Must Be Complete. All Products must be returned entirely complete, including all original manufacturer’s boxes, packing materials, manuals, cables, and any other accessories provided by PLCH in original shipment. PLCH reserves the right to refuse return of incomplete Products or to charge a minimum 15% restocking fee for returns that are accepted. Customer must reference authorized RMA number on the shipping label of each box or write it on the shipping box itself. Customer should never write RMA number on the original manufacturer's box.
Shipping Costs. Customer is responsible for the cost of shipping returned Products; PLCH is responsible for the cost of shipping replacements for returned Products and will match Customer’s shipping method.
Shipping Insurance. Customer is strongly advised to purchase full insurance to cover loss and damage in transit for shipments of returned Products and to use a carrier and shipping method that provide proof of delivery. PLCH is not responsible for loss or damage during transportation of returned Products.
Returned Products Must Be properly packed for shipping. PLCH is not liable for Product damages that may occur in transit during Product return. In order to minimize possibility of Product damages in transit, Customer must properly place the Product, or original manufacturer's box with the Product, in a shipping box with packing materials. Customer must be sure the Product is properly surrounded with bubble wrap or packing foam. Products should never be shipped without packing foam, bubble wrap, or an antistatic bag. The preferred method for returning Products is each in an individual shipping box. If you must ship multiple Products within the same shipping box, be sure each Product is protected in its own antistatic bag and is separated with packing foam or bubble wrap. Products should never be returned loose and/or unprotected. Crushed or damaged shipping boxes should never be used for Product returns. Products should never be shipped without being boxed or thoroughly bubble-wrapped and secured to a pallet (whenever applicable due to Product’s size and/or weight).
Refusal/Receipt of Damaged in Transit or Incomplete Products. If a package containing Products purchased from PLCH arrives at Customer’s location damaged or incomplete, Customer should refuse to accept delivery from a carrier. If Customer does accept delivery of such package, Customer must: (i) note the damage and/or missing parts on the carrier's delivery record so that PLCH may file a claim; (ii) save, as is, the Products and the original box and packaging it arrived in; and (iii) promptly notify PLCH either by calling PLCH Customer Service or by contacting the PLCH account manager to arrange for carrier’s inspection and pickup of the damaged or incomplete Products. If Customer does not note the damage or missing parts and save the received Products and original box and packaging and does not notify PLCH within five (5) days of delivery acceptance, Customer will be deemed to have accepted the Products as if they had arrived undamaged and complete, and PLCH’s regular Return Policy shall apply.

CUSTOMER SHALL NOT BE ENTITLED TO, AND PLCH SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR, LOSS OF PROFIT, PROMOTIONAL OR MANUFACTURING EXPENSES, OVERHEADS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION COSTS, LOSS OF DATA, REMOVAL OR REINSTALLATION COSTS, INJURY TO REPUTATION OR LOSS OF CUSTOMERS, PUNITIVE DAMAGES, IPR INFRINGEMENT, LOSS OF CONTRACTS OR ORDERS OR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY NATURE. CUSTOMER'S RECOVERY FROM PLCH FOR ANY CLAIM SHALL NOT EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE PAID FOR THE AFFECTED PRODUCTS IRRESPECTIVE OF THE NATURE OF THE CLAIM WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, WARRANTY, OR OTHERWISE.

PRODUCTS SOLD BY PLCH ARE NOT RECOMMENDED OR AUTHORIZED FOR USE IN LIFE SUPPORT, SURGICAL IMPLANTATION, NUCLEAR OR AIRCRAFT APPLICATIONS OR FOR ANY USE OR APPLICATION IN WHICH THE FAILURE OF A SINGLE COMPONENT COULD CAUSE SUBSTANTIAL HARM TO PERSONS OR PROPERTY. Customer agrees that using or selling Products for use in such applications is done at his own risk, and agrees that PLCH and its affiliates are not liable for any claim or damage arising from such use. Customer agrees to fully indemnify, defend and hold harmless PLCH and its affiliates from and against any and all claims, damages, loss, cost, expense or liability arising out of or in connection with the use or performance of Products in such applications. Use of software will be subject to the terms of any accompanying manufacturer's end user license.

PLCH sells hardware Products only and does not re-sell software licenses. Some hardware Products may contain software and may not be legally operated without first purchasing a proper software license from the manufacturer of such Products. PLCH respects the intellectual property of others, and we ask our Customers to do the same. Customer acknowledges and agrees that PLCH does not provide any operating system software or software right-to-use licenses with the Products it sells. Customers understand and agree that proper software licensing, software maintenance and upgrades are subject to applicable manufacturer's Software Licensing Agreement. Customer shall be solely responsible for obtaining proper software licenses for applicable Products from the manufacturer.

PLCH will not be liable for delays in delivery or failure to perform its obligations due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including, but not limited to, product allocations, material shortages, labor disputes, transportation delays, unforeseen circumstances, acts of God, acts or omissions of other parties, acts or omissions of civil or military authorities, Government priorities, fire, strikes, floods, severe weather conditions, computer interruptions, terrorism, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, riots, or war. PLCH's time for delivery or performance will be extended by the period of such delay or PLCH may, at its option, cancel any order or remaining part thereof without liability by giving notice to Customer.
