Nobody seemed to notice, when Genrad started to collect license fee on used machines. These were different times and customers could effort the extra $ 15,000 software license fee. I totally agree with Jason that in these days, we turn the dime twic

I believe that having a website that lists registrations fees and problems with various companies would be a great benefit to this industry. As with all "opinion based" sites, the information should be taken for what it is, opinions and isolated even

Does anyone know if it is legal to not sell parts to a customer without paying a $1,500 registration fee? I can understand if I needed technical support. I am referring to Austin American. We sell refurbished equipment & I needed a few parts & a manu

Varied opinions on this thread spread faster than wild-fire. First, I must say that analogies to auto dealers are a bit flawed. Business to Consumer is one thing. Business to Business is a completely different ballgame . . . no sense of comparing t

I seem to be able to buy parts from electgrovert without the "fee" and yes it is used equipment and was not purchased through electrovert. It would be nice to list all these MFGrs that require you to pay them to order parts. I can understand the t

Yes, I am a customer. I've bought brand new machines from this mfr. before. Many times, actually (through sales reps.). And when their tech support helps us troubleshoot a problem down to a component, we actually pay the three, four, five times the a
