Everything is or should be in stock with the manufacturer! So if we do not have it physically in our warehouse - we can obtain it usually in the given delivery times confirmed with the quotation. In cases the manufacturer is really out of stock and we face unexpected delays, the order - in agreement with the buyer - will be cancelled or dropped in a back order list - as stated in our company policies.
Most spare parts are covered with a full manufacturer's warranty! Consumables are also covered, depending on the manufacturer’s policy. Unfortunately, print heads are considered consumables and do not carry a manufacturer’s warranty. Still, an investigation can be done, to make an evaluation that could justify a claim with the manufacturer or logistics service provider. For claims about DOA, a replacement will be evaluated on each case individually, together with the manufacturer’s expertise and approval.
We are shipping products that are physically available from the warehouse after the payment is received. Customers are informed, with the order confirmation, regarding availability. It happens that one or more clients order the same product at the same time. Usually, the order management will recognize this and first in, first served. For those parts that are often needed like printheads, filters or other consumables – there’s usually enough inventory to avoid major delays in order processing.
We are not expensive, the prices you see online are calculated based on our purchase prices, the prepayment and inventory cost, and a reasonable margin that covers our labour, taxes and necessary insurance that also needs to be paid. Any product you see online that shows stock is usually already prepaid from us to keep liabilities to our suppliers close to zero.
Our price list reflects - as stated above - a proper business calculation. Variables inside the calculation might change our prices, but not necessarily. Those changes take place depending on currency fluctuations and more seldom to real price changes from the manufacturers. Minor changes we buffer anyway. To reach a broad range of customers during the introduction of the online shop we might offer some promotional items for everyone at discounted prices. We are having different campaigns every month. Send us your email address where we can keep you posted.
If you like to receive a customized quotation for some of the items, send us an inquiry. We are happy to support technicians, dealers, freelancers, printing companies...
We are offering plenty of parts. Some are too seldom needed to justify photographing them all. Also overfilling the online shop with thousands of products that are hardly needed makes the shopping experience less enjoyable. For all those items you do not see, please send us your inquiry by email with full product description and pictures, if available. A lot of parts of the famous brands from large format printing are available - but not always listed on purpose.
