Editorial standards

Terms come from the supplier

Warranty, restocking, shipping, and service terms are taken from each supplier's own published policies and quoted in their words. Every term shows the date it was recorded and links to its source. Where we show a short version in a comparison table, it is lifted from the supplier's text, not rewritten.

"Not published" means exactly that

If we have not found a term in a supplier's published policies, we say "Not published". We never estimate or fill in a missing term.

Dates matter

Policies change. Each term shows when it was recorded, and older records are re-checked against the supplier's current policy and updated with a new date. Always confirm terms with the supplier before you buy.

Prices

Price ranges on equipment pages are typical ranges for that system, not offers. Actual prices depend on condition, configuration, and the supplier.

No paid placement in comparisons

Comparisons list suppliers by name, with editor's picks first when we have made them. Picks are never paid for. Paid content is labeled "Sponsored". See how we make money.

Corrections

If a term is wrong or out of date, please tell us and include a link to the current policy.
