Policy

Sub-Standard Cores

It has always been our policy to refuse cores which are not "remanufacturable." We require that the cores are original equipment, unopened and undamaged. We try to keep our prices low by having consistent procedures; these are greatly affected by prior work. Many troubleshooting clues are lost due to prior tampering. The original problem(s) can be masked causing troubleshooting and remanufacture to be much more time-consuming and difficult. Furthermore, it takes more than double the time to desolder a board as to solder it, making re-manufacture up to three times as long.

We cannot remanufacture or take as a core equipment that is not original equipment, especially those with aftermarket replacement boards inside the cans.

We realize that in certain circumstances cores are limited or unavailable. In these cases we evaluate whether the core is salvageable. If so, the following surcharge is added to the cost of remanufacture:

Opened module - factory seal broken	no charge
Any soldering	$50.00
Major soldering (over 1/4 board) or component change	unacceptible core - entire core charge applies in addition to rebuild cost

Thank you for your understanding. Please do not hesitate to call our technical line with questions.
