Undeliverable packages
Occasionally packages are returned to us as undeliverable. An Eppendorf North America customer support representative will contact you to re-confirm your shipping information if an undeliverable package is returned to us.
Why was my package undeliverable?
A carrier may deem a package undeliverable for many reasons; for example:
- > Incorrect Address: If the address is incorrect or outdated, the package is typically returned to us by the carrier or the unintended recipient. Please carefully double-check your address when placing your order. Click here for tips on accurate addressing.
- > Illegible address: In rare cases, it is also possible that the address label became illegible during the shipping and handling process, or that the carrier made a mistake and left the package at a different address than what was printed on the label.
- > Carrier does not deliver to the address: Some carriers will not deliver to some addresses; for example, most carriers will not deliver to a PO Box address.
- > Failed delivery attempts: Most carriers will make up to three attempts to deliver a package. Packages that contain more than $400 of merchandise typically require a signature; otherwise, it is generally up to the driver's discretion to determine whether a signature is required. If the driver feels it is best to obtain a signature, and no one is present to accept the delivery after three attempts, the package will be returned to us.
Damaged shipments
What should I do if your shipment is damaged in transit?
- > If the order was shipped via your preferred carrier to your account number: contact your carrier directly; in these instances Eppendorf North America is not responsible for damage claims and replacement costs.
- > If your order qualified for FREE shipping and it was shipped via Eppendorf North America's preferred carrier: accept the shipment from the carrier and sign for the shipment as damaged. Immediately contact Eppendorf North America Customer Support at 1-800-645-3050 (Toll free for US customers), to report the damage; have your Order Confirmation Number when you call and if you ordered using a purchase order, please also have your Purchase Order Number available.
Lost shipments
If you order does not arrive by the estimated delivery timeframe noted previously, it is possible that your shipment is lost in transit. If your order was shipped via a traceable method (such as UPS), please reference the tracking number that was included in your Delivery Notice and contact the carrier to track your shipment.

Eppendorf North America, Inc. is hereinafter referred to as "Seller." Items ordered from Seller in whatever form or quantity are referred to as "Equipment."

Any terms or conditions set forth in acknowledgments and any other documents relating to sale of Equipment, in addition to or inconsistent with the following Terms and Conditions, including penalties or liquidated damages for Seller's failure to meet shipment dates or any other reason, shall not be binding upon Seller. Failure of Seller to object to provisions contained in any purchase order or other communication from any Buyer shall not be construed as a waiver of these conditions nor an acceptance of any such provisions. Seller reserves the right to correct clerical or stenographic errors at any time.
-
Buyer’s completion and submission of an order on this web site, finalized by clicking or selecting the [Submit / Checkout] button, shall constitute a contract under these Terms and Conditions. No agent of Seller has authority to modify or waive any provision hereof, and no claimed modification, termination or waiver or revision of these Terms and Conditions shall be valid as against Seller. The contract information is not stored on a public server or accessible online. This information is not shared with any 3rd party.
-
Payments may be made by credit card or pursuant to a registered account which requires prior registration and approval as noted on the payment page. Invoices will be sent to the billing address on file for the registered account and payment is due thirty (30) days from the invoice date. The amount of any payment not received by Seller within thirty (30) days of the invoice date shall bear interest at the rate of one and one-half percent (1 1/2%) per month, retroactive to invoice date. Credit cards are charged at the point of shipment for payments made by credit card.

The limited warranty period depends on the particular product purchased. A copy of a limited warranty is available upon request. The limited warranty period commences on the date of shipment of the Equipment by Seller from Seller's warehouse, unless a different date is specified in the product-specific limited warranty. The limited warranty runs only to the original Buyer of the Equipment and only if it is used for its intended purpose under normal operating conditions. If the Equipment proves to be defective in material or workmanship during the limited warranty period, as determined by an inspection authorized by Seller, defective parts will be repaired or replaced at Seller's option. Such repair or replacement, however, shall not extend the limited warranty period. Seller's obligation hereunder is subject to its receipt within the limited warranty period of written notice from Buyer of all defects within thirty (30) days after such alleged defects become reasonably apparent to Buyer.
THE ABOVE LIMITED WARRANTY EXTENDS TO THE ORIGINAL BUYER ONLY. SELLER DOES NOT GIVE ANY PERFORMANCE GUARANTEES WITH RESPECT TO EQUIPMENT.
Seller shall not be obligated to replace the Equipment or any parts thereof with equipment or parts of later or improved design or construction. Seller shall have no obligation to repair or replace expendable parts, or Equipment or parts damaged by misuse or failure of Buyer to observe proper maintenance, lubricating or operating procedures. This limited warranty shall not apply to damage to certain fragile components such as glass parts and accessories, thermometers and bulbs. In the case of components or units purchased by Seller from other suppliers, the obligation of Seller hereunder shall be limited to give the original Buyer the benefit of any warranty Seller may receive from the supplier of such components or units.
SELLER MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, IN CONNECTION WITH THE DESIGN, SALE, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS OF THE EQUIPMENT FOR PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE EXCEPT AS HEREIN EXPRESSLY SET FORTH. SELLER SHALL NOT BE SUBJECT TO ANY OTHER OBLIGATIONS OR LIABILITIES ARISING OUT OF BREACH OF CONTRACT OR WARRANTIES, ANY OBLIGATIONS WHATSOEVER ARISING FROM TORT CLAIMS, INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE AND STRICT LIABILITY, OR ARISING UNDER ANY OTHER THEORIES OF LAW.
SELLER SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIFIC, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSS, DAMAGES, EXPENSE OR INJURY OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER.
Any improper use of the Equipment, whether intentional or unintentional, operation beyond capacity or any stated limitations, failure to report to Seller within the limited warranty period, substitution of parts not approved by Seller, failure or damage due to misapplication, lack of proper maintenance, abuse, improper installation, or abnormal conditions of temperature, moisture, or corrosive matter, or alteration or repair by others in such manner which in Seller's sole judgment affects the Equipment materially and adversely, shall void this limited warranty.
-
Equipment sold by Seller is subject to change from time to time, which changes are intended to improve the design and construction of the Equipment. Accordingly, any illustrations, specifications or other descriptive material which may have been provided or available to Buyer before delivery of the Equipment, may not necessarily be current at the time of delivery of the Equipment and, hence, are intended to present a general description of the Equipment and are not to be deemed to constitute a part of a limited warranty as to particular Equipment specifications.
-
If the order was placed without a request to "Ship Complete", all items in the order will ship as and when available. Seller shall have the right to ship the balance of Equipment included in the order as soon as the Equipment is ready for shipment. If Seller reasonably believes Buyer is unwilling or unable to accept delivery when ready for shipment, Seller may transport and warehouse the Equipment at the Buyer's expense. If the order was requested to "Ship Complete", the complete order will not ship until all items are in stock.
-
Seller shall not be responsible for delay in delivery or performance by Seller due to any cause beyond the Seller's reasonable control including, without limitation, events commonly known as force majeure, such as fire, flood, earthquakes, acts of God, strikes, and terrorism; and in the event of such delay the delivery schedule shall be extended for time lost by reason of delay.
-
Orders are usually automatically accepted by Seller, and may only be canceled or modified by Buyer with the prior written consent of Seller and upon terms satisfactory to Seller.
