2. All quoted equipment originates from army or public agency stocks, wound-up companies or similar; such equipment is second-hand unless otherwise specified. All quotations may also, of their nature, concern single items.

No reasons have to be given for cancellation, but it must be done in writing on a permanent data carrier or by returning the goods to Helmut Singer Elektronik, Feldchen 16-24, D-52070 Aachen. Compliance with this deadline shall be recognised provided the goods are dispatched on time. For orders below the value of EUR 40.-, the return postage shall be assumed by the returning party. The value of the goods shall be reimbursed by us immediately (please state bank details) . Take-back of goods without obligation from private customers and from commercial customers: We do charge a Restocking Fee of 15% of the net value of the goods, however a minimum fee of Euro 35 Euro, which will be subtracted from the refunded amount.

10. The minimum order value is EUR 25.- for domestic orders and EUR 50.- for foreign orders - to keep the goods value in proportion to the shipping costs.
11. Warranty conditions: second-hand equipment quoted as “tested and in
working order“ is warranted for 1 (one) year. We do however charge depreciation
costs on a pro rata basis, based on the assumption of 12 months‘ remaining
trouble-free use. If a guarantee claim is made after one month, for example, we
will assume 91,67% of the repair costs and the customer only 8,33% (1/12). In
case of a warranty claim after two months, we will assume 83,34% and the customer
16,66% (2/12) pro rata, etc.
Shipment to us shall take place at the account and risk of the sender; non
prepaid deliveries will not be accepted. In the case of equipment which is
quoted as having undergone “basic testing”, we only guarantee the basic functions:
minor errors are possible. Equipment quoted “as is” must be assumed to be in
need of repair and not covered by any warranty. The warranty shall not apply if
the equipment is interfered with by the customer, nor if the applied seals are
damaged. Wearing parts are not covered by the warranty.
Also excluded from the warranty are errors caused by incorrect operation / use
of the equipment.
In a warranty case we will refund the cost of sending back the item on a basis
of cheapest way of sending – for example Surface Mail. Any additional cost, for
example Express Shipment, we not be refunded.

The return delivery takes place at the sender’s risk, and the transport costs are charged to his account. If a defect is discovered, the only claim options are rectification and, should this prove impossible, return or cancellation of sale.
13. Scope of delivery: Accessories originally supplied with the new equipment are not included unless otherwise specified. Equipment is supplied with a free copy of the operating instructions (where available), but not of the service documentation, which can be ordered (where available) subject to an extra charge.
