LabTrader, Inc. Return Policy

Last Updated: September 2026

Returns

  • Due to the specialized nature of laboratory equipment, all sales are generally considered final unless otherwise stated or approved by LabTrader.
  • Return eligibility may vary depending on the equipment, purchase price, condition, warranty, and terms agreed upon at the time of sale. Certain high-value or specialized equipment may be subject to additional or customized return terms, which will be outlined in the applicable quote, invoice, or purchase agreement.
  • Any return must be reviewed and authorized by LabTrader in advance. Please do not ship equipment back without receiving return authorization from our team.

Dead on Arrival (DOA)

  • If equipment arrives non-functional or is determined to be Dead on Arrival (DOA), please contact LabTrader within 15 days of delivery.
  • Our team will review the issue and determine the appropriate resolution based on the equipment, warranty, and terms of the sale.
  • This may include troubleshooting, repair, replacement, return authorization, or another mutually agreed-upon resolution.

High-Value & Specialized Equipment

  • Certain high-value, customized, or specialized equipment purchases may have unique return, warranty, deposit, or cancellation conditions.
  • These terms will be communicated to the customer before purchase and documented on the applicable quotation, invoice, or sales agreement.
  • When equipment-specific terms are provided in writing, those terms will apply to that purchase.
