Leasing pressure meters - SPL-Lab USA

Recommended Posts

Leasing information from SPL-Lab USA.

I will go over the basics of how this works and what to expect.

You will receive a contract after making payment that needs to be signed and faxed or emailed back to us.

So, this is how it works-

Customer wants to lease a meter...

Let's say USB Meter.

USB Meter costs $409.

Customer needs to email me- shizzzon@gmail.com for leasing inquiry.

Customer will pay us $409 for this meter after informing us of leasing request.

If it were any other meter, customer pays us the normal price for that meter.

Once paid, we will send a contract out and instructions. The contract needs to be signed and faxed or emailed back to us.

If customer does not agree to contract then we will refund money 100%

What to expect in contract?

When the contract is received, your leasing period has started. You will generally have around 40days from the day you receive the contract to send it back to us, ship meter to you, use it and send it back to us in specified time.

If contract is not void, customer will typically around 75% of their payment refunded back.

If sent late, more money is withheld...

If over 60 days late from day customer received meter, there will be NO refund. It is assumed customer owns meter at that time.

***Any failure of device or missing items when returned will be replenished from customer's payment and remaining funds, if any, would then be refunded back to customer.

This is a very simple process.

We allow the following meters to be leased-

USB Meter

USB Pro Meter

LCD Meter

Bluetooth Wireless Meter

USB Noise Meter

When these meters are returned back to us, they are immediately set aside (after being thoroughly tested) as "used."

Used meters are purchased directly through us and ALSO are used as leasing meters as well!

So some customers may receive brand new or used lease meters but functionality will always be 100%.

A used meter is sold around $40 cheaper than normal price.

When we have a Used meter, it will be posted in our forum section.

What if the meter is damaged upon receiving it?

We allow enough time to inspect and return it without it effecting your contract period. A new contract would need to be signed or a full refund would be issued.

One more thing to note-

We do not always have meters in stock for leasing.

We reserve only a couple of meters out of our stock for leasing. When they are currently be leased, leasing for that particular meter will resume once one is returned.

***- we will not hold funds if the meter is damaged and is determined it was not done neglectfully or for the purpose of voiding warranty.

Any more questions, just ask.

Leasing begins tomorrow...

<p style="margin-left: 40px">Exactly what is the leasing period? 30 days?</p>

You can say roughly 30days.

When i email the contract to a customer, the return time is typically around 40days to get it back to us.

So.. that would allow 1-4days shipping to customer and back to us(2-8days round trip), and to sign contract and send it back to us(0-2days typical) then the use time...

So worst case scenario- 30days of use.

Best case scenario- roughly 38 days of use..

Although i wouldn't wait down to the last second before shipping it back either and the contract time varies but we try to keep it around 40days from the day contract is sent out.

Why not start the lease time when the user recieves it? Can normally track this with shipment tracking the day they get the meter, seems like the shipping cuts down on the time they get to use it... shipping there and back is a good week, easy.

Actually, we get packages to customer VERY QUICK.

We are located in KY and can typically get packages to California in just 2 days and packages to Hawaii in 3-4 days.

We use this service for quick shipping times so it doesn't effect transit times typically seen by UPS or Fedex.

I do understand it would make more sense to start when it's received but this also gives the customer a much more "loose lease period" than strictly being locked into a 30day lease. It's less of a hassle to monitor every shipment that leaves our hands if done this way.

It's in no way degrading to the customer. If I felt there would be a time issue based on location, period would be adjusted to compensate.

I want everyone to have a fair period of use if they opt to lease a product from us and do not want to impose a quick rush and test use.

We might even push it back to 45days..

Understandable, that would be a lot to keep track of. I'm sure people would agrue the date as well to complicate things and push how long they get the unit to the max as well. Makes sense, as it seems like you're going for a "month" of use and the extra ~10 days are ment for the shipment or bonus days if they're close.

Yea, this isn't our first time doing this. It's just been super busy the last several months so we stopped leasing altogether because we started to get bombarded with Leagues requesting info about us being their official meter and retail stores around the country and in South America..

So we had to make sure we had the most inventory on hand.

Now, we are all caught up and ready to start it again, hehe.

In the past, we had never had a problem with timeframes with people. Actually, most customers would send theirs back either super early or inform us they would be keeping it longer or forever..

The majority of our past leasers kept their meter as in the long run, most who have messed with one will typically own one eventually.

In the end, about that.

We do charge for shipping so this is what would happen-

we take 20% of $409 = $82 + $10 shipping = $92

If contract is not void, then the customer would receive $317 back.
