RETURNS

Contact your customer service representative to request an RMA. Please note, that 75% of customer returns to Omega are found to be compliant upon re-inspection. Omega may proactively request conference call with our quality engineers to discuss non-compliance issues before the parts are returned.

  • Omega Optical will not accept return packages without an RMA# clearly marked on the outside of the box. Contact your sales representative for an RMA#.
  • Restocking Fee: Omega Optical Stock Parts returned at the customer’s discretion will be subject to a 30% restocking fee. No custom or “production overrun” parts may be returned if compliant to specifications.
  • Returned parts passing re-inspection will be returned to customer at the customer’s expense.
  • Parts failing re-inspection will be replaced or credited during the warranty period.

CUSTOMER SUPPLIED MATERIALS

When the customer supplies material (i.e. substrates, associated hardware or software, etc.), Omega Optical will take every precaution with its proper handling. However, Omega Optical will not be held liable for the quality of the finished product or for loss of material, or any contingent liability.

BLANKET ORDERS

Blanket Contract Pricing is for a term up to 12 months. The time is calculated from the date of the placement of the given Blanket Purchase Order, not the date of first delivery. In order to provide the best possible service, Blanket Purchase Order deliveries must be scheduled at the time of order placement with sufficient time for production. The remainder of the total quantity ordered will be scheduled for delivery on the anniversary date of the blanket order.

CANCELLATIONS

Customer, only with the express written consent of Seller, may cancel work which remains to be furnished under a contract. Omega Optical will place the order on customer hold status and assess the amount of product in process and in inventory. The product in inventory will be shipped and invoiced. Either the product that is in process will be shipped and invoiced upon completion or; it will be cancelled and invoiced based upon the percentage of completion. Per-part pricing will correspond to the price quoted for the quantity shipped. For example, if the quote contained separate pricing for 500 and 1000 parts, and the order is cancelled after shipping 700 parts, then the 500-part pricing will apply.

EXPORT RESTRICTIONS

Any export of Omega products shall be in accordance with the Department of Commerce Export Administration Regulations. The Customer agrees that it will not divert, use, export or re-export such items contrary to United States law. Customer expressly acknowledges and agrees that it will not export, re-export, or provide such items to any entity or person within any country that is subject to United States economic sanctions imposing comprehensive embargoes without obtaining prior authorization from the United States Government. The list of such countries subject to United States economic sanctions or embargoes may change from time to time but currently includes Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria. The Customer also expressly acknowledges and agrees that it will not export, re-export, or provide such items to entities and persons that are ineligible under United States law to receive such items, including but not limited to, any person or entity on the United States Treasury Department’s list of Specially Designated Nationals or on the United States Commerce Department’s Denied Persons List, Entity List, or Unverified List.
