a cost estimate. Should the user reject the estimate, ACE
Instruments will send the product back unrepaired/not
calibrated and the product will be labelled accordingly.
Should the product not fulfil the warranty, the claim of
the buyer and the obligations of ACE Instruments are
limited exclusively to the discretion of ACE Instruments for
exchange, repair of the affected goods or reimbursement of
the purchasing price for the faulty merchandise.
