Terms & Conditions

  

Privacy:  Sams Technical Publishing does not sell, rent, or provide its customer list to any outside organization.  Please be assured that your email and telephone number will not be distributed outside of Sams Technical Publishing.

Returns:  Returns must have prior permission to be returned. To facilitate a return, please contact our Customer Care Center at 1.800.428.SAMS, customercare1@samswebsite.com, or customercare2@samswebsite.com.  One of our Customer Care specialists will provide you with instructions regarding your return. Sams Technical Publishing can only issue credit if the item was purchased directly from Sams Technical Publishing. Items purchased from our distributors need to be returned to that distributor.

Damaged Items:  Sams Technical Publishing will gladly replace any item damaged during shipment. Please contact our Customer Care Center and we will promptly ship you a replacement.

Shipping:  Sams Technical Publishing uses UPS for shipments unless another carrier is requested. Our Customer Care Center can provide you with tracking numbers if you need them.

Photocopies:  A number of items related to servicing electronics devices are identified as “Photocopy," indicating that they are photocopies of original manufacturer’s data, copied by Sams Technical Publishing with the manufacturer’s permission. THESE ITEMS ARE NOT RETURNABLE.  

Older PHOTOFACT® Sets:  A number of the older PHOTOFACT® sets are printed “on-demand.” These sets will be single-sided (instead of two-sided as when they were originally printed). These PHOTOFACT® sets are printed on a state-of-the-art engineering plotter that produces high-quality prints comparable to those we receive from our printer. Should you receive what appears to be a copy of a PHOTOFACT®, it is actually printed on-demand from a digital file in our Digital Printing Center.

E:fact®:  E:fact® is an electronic version of PHOTOFACT® and contains the basics needed to repair the device at hand. E:fact® does not contain everything in a PHOTOFACT®. A complete list of the items included can be found at http://www.samswebsite.com/photofact/efact.html. E:fact® is delivered to you via email as an attachment and IS NOT RETURNABLE. You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to view E:fact®.  E-fact® cannot be emailed to free, limited storage accounts such as Hotmail, as they do not allow enough space for the attachment to be received. E:fact® is only available directly from Sams Technical Publishing, as it is not currently designed for resale through a distributor. 

Advertisers:  Sams Technical Publishing makes no claim to and assumes no responsibility regarding the business practices of those companies advertising on www.samswebsite.com.  If you would like to advertise on our website, please contact Richard White.

Distributors & Resellers:  Sams Technical Publishing makes no claim to and assumes no responsibility regarding the business practices of those companies reselling our products, except in situations involving the illegal copying and reselling of our products. 

Questions regarding these terms and conditions should be forwarded to samstech@samswebsite.com.
