Aesthetics Disclaimer

Due to specification upgrades, manufacturer diversity, and stock cycling, products shipped may vary slightly from their photos. We guarantee all of our products to function as advertised, but aesthetics are subject to change. We will not ship multiple variations of a product in a single order without prior confirmation, but cannot guarantee total aesthetic homogeny from one order to the next.

If you are prototyping or engineering and intend on using our products as integrated components, we would be happy to establish more specific consistency requirements for you. Please let us know prior to ordering if you will be needing physically and aesthetically identical products from one order to the next.


Manufacturers and OEM's

At DataPro we understand "Just-in-time" (JIT) inventory management. Volume manufacturers, OEM customers, and wholesalers are welcome to place blanket purchase orders with scheduled ship dates up to a year in advance. DataPro will happily offer volume discounts based on the purchase quantity of the entire order, and hold stock in our warehouse until the requested delivery date.

Customer Accounts

Creating An Account
To create an account with DataPro for ease of ordering, just download, fill out, and return this form (interactive PDF). Accounts are required to waive sales tax, and to log into our website (which will auto-fill your address information).

Washington State Sales Tax:
Customers residing within Washington State must be charged sales tax on all purchases unless we have on file a current Department of Revenue Resale Permit. If you think the permit we have on file may be expired, please check with us before ordering.

Reseller Accounts & Pricing:
DataPro does not offer "reseller" accounts with inherent price discounts -- all pricing is based on the volume of product ordered. There are multiple tiers of volume pricing that have lower prices than those shown in our online catalog. For a volume discount quote, just email our Sales department.

Having a customer account does not imply credit terms - please see below for information on Net 30 credit.

Net 30 Credit Terms

To obtain an open account with "NET 30 DAY" payment terms, we require either (a) a Dun & Bradstreet account number or (b) a credit card that can be kept on file as a backup payment method.

Once credit is established, you may place orders by email, through our website, or by fax.

We gladly accept Purchase Orders with Net 30 day terms for government agencies, accredited universities, medical facilities, and public schools.

Please Note: Net 30 indicates that payment is due within 30 days of the order shipping.
