Buyer questions
Answers before the first purchase order.
Can I request a mixed list from several brands?
Yes. Send one spreadsheet or message. We separate servers, networking and components into the right technical review, then return a consolidated commercial offer.
How is availability confirmed?
Availability and lead time are confirmed after the exact model, configuration, condition, quantity, destination and compliance review are complete.
Are software licenses included with the hardware?
Only when they are itemized and confirmed on the quote. Hardware ownership does not automatically transfer subscriptions, management entitlements or feature activations.
What warranty is included?
The quote states whether coverage is provided by the manufacturer, a channel partner or ASTER RACKIT, together with duration, region, service level and exclusions.
How is equipment protected for international transit?
We use serviceable OEM packaging where available, or ESD protection, immobilizing foam, double-wall cartons, pallets or crates selected for the unit weight and route.
How do returns and RMA requests work?
Terms vary for factory-new channel goods, configured systems, licensed products and international pre-owned orders. Before purchase, the quote or sales contract states the DOA notice window, written RMA authorization, return-freight responsibility, inspection or restocking charges, non-returnable items, available remedy and cross-border return point. No return is accepted without written RMA approval; the signed commercial terms control.
