Terms and Conditions:
1. INVESTIGATION: TEI will reasonably investigate the Purchaser’s claim. If after investigation TEI determines that the reported problem was not covered by this warranty, Purchaser will pay TEI for the cost of investigating the problem at TEI’s then prevailing per incident testing fee and all shipping costs incurred by TEI. No repair or replacement of any Product or part thereof will extend the applicable warranty period for the entire Product. The specific warranty for any repair will extend for a period of ninety (90) days following the repair or the remaining warranty period for the Product, whichever is longer.

EXCLUSIVE REMEDY; ACCEPTANCE: Purchaser’s exclusive remedy and TEI’s sole obligation under this warranty is to supply (or pay for) all labor necessary to repair any Product found to be defective in material or workmanship within the warranty period and to supply, at no extra charge, new or rebuilt replacements for defective parts. If repair or replacement fails to remedy the problem, then and only in such event will TEI refund to Purchaser the purchase price for the Product. Purchaser’s failure to make a claim as provided herein or continued use of the Product will constitute an unqualified acceptance of the Product and a waiver by Purchaser of all warranty claims with respect thereto.

5. PROOF OF PURCHASE: Purchaser’s dated bill of sale for the Product must be retained as evidence of the date of purchase and to establish warranty eligibility.

“In Warranty” Repair:
If the product was sold as TOA brand “A” Stock and you do not have a copy of the “Invoice” or “Bill of Sale” we will use the manufacturing date code and provide “In Warranty” repair service for the product warranty time period + (6) six calendar months.
If the product was sold as TOA brand “B” Stock or Non-TOA branded product to obtain “In Warranty” repair you will be required to provide a copy of your “Invoice” or “Bill of Sale” to the repair center agent via Fax, Email or Postal Service so that the warranty status can be determined prior to your shipping the product to the factory repair center.
In Warranty repair products must not be shipped to any repair center without TOA service authorization preapproval. Products received at any repair center without TOA service authorization preapproval will be refused.
“Out of Warranty” Repair:
If the product is determined to be “Out of Warranty” you will be referred to the local (independently owned and operated) TOA Preferred Repair Center or you can choose to send the product to the TOA Factory Repair Center.
Repair Processing:
Upon the determination that repair service is necessary, the repair center agent will collect your contact information along with detailed information regarding the condition of the product requiring service.
Within (3) three business days, the repair center will contact you via Email, Fax or Postal Service and provide you with the shipping instructions.
Note: Attempted delivery of products to the repair center without authorized preapproval will be refused. All products must be shipped into and out of the repair center as we do not provide a “Will-Call” area for product drop-off or pick-up.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Important information to understand when shipping your TOA product to or from the repair center:
Each individual product must be boxed separately along with the shipping instructions in packaging sufficient to safely reach the repair center and return safely to the customer. The customer may be charged for new shipping packing materials if the inbound shipping packaging is unsafe for the repaired product return shipment to the customer.
The repair center is not responsible in the event the product is physically damaged during shipment. The repair center will contact the customer and advise them to initiate a damage claim with the shipping company. The Customer is responsible for all products received by the repair center with shipping damage. It is the customer’s responsibility to settle the shipping damage claim with the shipper. TOA Electronics, Inc. is not responsible for any shipping damage.
Products received by the customer from the repair center in damaged condition should file a damage claim with the returning shipping company.
Shipping charges are the responsibility of the customer for all products shipping into the repair center. The customer shall be responsible for all return shipping charges to and from the repair center for all “Out of Warranty” product repairs.
The repair center will pay shipping charges for “In Warranty” product repairs shipping back to the customer via UPS Standard Ground service – without insurance. Customers may request shipping insurance coverage but will be required to pay for the insurance prior to shipment.
Customers requesting expedited (Air or Next Day type) shipping of repaired products shall be billed in full for these expedited shipping charges.
