Honest Components provides a service of sending all orders to Global ETS (GETS), an independent, AS6081/ISO17025 Military/Aerospace-certified laboratory to authenticate all orders. Tests include Documentation & Packaging Inspection, External Visual Detailed, Mechanical Inspection, Marking Permanency, Functional Electrical, Decapsulation, Solderability and X-Ray. If any tests do not pass 100%, we do not accept the parts and will provide a RMA for replacements or refund. If Customer decides to accept parts after any failed test, all parts are NCNR. Failure to conduct destructive testing as specified will render the warranty null and void. Compliance with the destructive testing procedure is essential for maintaining the validity of the product warranty. Once tests pass 100%, Customer assumes ownership of all parts and the 90-day form, fit and function warranty is set forward.

Customer may not return Products to Honest Components without first obtaining, from Honest Components , a Return Material Authorization (“RMA”) specifically authorizing the return of specified Products. Honest Components has the sole and unfettered discretion to determine whether to issue Customer an RMA as there may be unforeseen circumstances that may amend this decision. If any order does not fully pass independent testing, customer can choose to accept the parts, whereby doing so, the order is “non-cancelable and nonreturnable”, and warranty is voided. In the event Customer obtains an RMA from Honest Components , Customer must return Products described in the RMA to Honest Components or the designated destination determined by Honest Components in the original manufacturer’s shipping cartons or equivalent. Customer must return Products described in the RMA to Honest Components or to the designated destination determined by Honest Components , freight prepaid, and in accordance with all instructions as specified in the Honest Components RMA.
