Certified Buyer Questions

What Makes Certified Different?

Embellishr Certified is designed to give buyers greater transparency, professional project coordination, and operational confidence when purchasing qualified pre-owned equipment.

Certified Equipment

More Than an Equipment Listing.

Purchasing equipment through an unknown seller or an unprofessional broker can leave buyers exposed to undisclosed equipment concerns, unresolved liens, unexpected repair costs, and the responsibility of coordinating teardown, crating, freight, and installation alone.

Certified equipment is supported through a structured process that may include operational verification, lien review, professional disassembly, custom crating, freight coordination, facility preparation guidance, and optional installation and training.

01 Two-Stage Operational Inspection
02 Professional Project Coordination
03 Teardown, Crating & Freight Support
04 Optional Installation & Training
01 What does Certified by Embellishr mean?

Certified by Embellishr is our fully managed pre-owned equipment purchasing experience for qualified equipment packages.

Rather than simply introducing a buyer to a seller, Embellishr helps coordinate the equipment transaction and transition. Depending on the package, this may include operational inspections, lien review, professional teardown, custom crating, freight logistics, project management, facility preparation guidance, financing introductions, installation, and operator training.

02 How does Embellishr verify Certified equipment?

Certified equipment goes through a two-stage Operational Inspection process.

The process begins with a virtual Operational Inspection. The seller provides equipment specifications, serial numbers, photographs, and operational video so our team can review the configuration, year, electrical requirements, included accessories, visible condition, and standard operation.

After the equipment is sold, one of our Certified Contract Technicians conducts a comprehensive onsite Operational Inspection. The technician verifies standard operation, documents the equipment, confirms that it matches the listing, identifies any parts requiring attention, and prepares the equipment for the next stage of the transition.

03 What happens if an operational concern is identified?

If the onsite Operational Inspection identifies an equipment concern, Embellishr documents the issue and works with the seller to determine the appropriate resolution before the equipment is prepared for shipment.

Depending on the issue and the terms of the purchase, the resolution may involve repair, replacement of an affected part, additional disclosure, or another mutually agreed solution.

04 Does Embellishr verify that the equipment is free of liens?

Before the equipment transition is completed, Embellishr works to verify that the equipment is free and clear of known liens.

When a lien exists, our team coordinates directly with the applicable lender and seller to establish the payoff requirements needed to release the equipment.

05 Is teardown and crating included with Certified equipment?

Certified packages are professionally prepared for shipment. Embellishr coordinates the qualified technician, professional disassembly, equipment documentation, custom crating, and loading requirements applicable to the project.

The exact project scope and associated costs are outlined before the purchase is completed.

06 Does Embellishr coordinate freight?

Yes. Embellishr can coordinate the freight requirements for the Certified package, including shipment planning, carrier scheduling, freight insurance, loading requirements, delivery coordination, and communication throughout transit.

Freight costs are generally funded by the buyer unless otherwise stated in the equipment proposal.

07 How will I know what my facility needs before the equipment arrives?

During project coordination, Embellishr provides the available facility requirements for the equipment package. These may include electrical, gas, compressed air, ventilation, water, drainage, forklift, doorway, ceiling-height, and equipment-placement requirements.

Buyers are responsible for confirming that their facility is prepared before delivery and installation.

08 Is professional installation available?

Professional installation may be added to qualifying Certified equipment packages.

When installation is selected, Embellishr coordinates the authorized technician, scheduling, facility preparation review, equipment placement, setup, startup, and applicable testing.

Installation does not automatically include operator training unless training is specifically included in the proposal.

09 Is operator training available?

Operator training may be added depending on the equipment, technician availability, buyer location, and project scope.

Training is quoted separately unless it is specifically identified as included with the equipment package.

10 Is financing available for Certified equipment?

Financing introductions may be available through Embellishr's equipment financing network.

Approval depends on the buyer's qualifications, the equipment type, equipment age, transaction amount, lender requirements, and supporting documentation. Financing is provided by third-party lenders and is not guaranteed by Embellishr.

11 What is the next step when I am ready to purchase?

To reserve a Certified equipment package, the buyer submits the required Reservation Deposit. Once received, the equipment is marked sold and removed from the market while the transaction is completed.

The remaining balance is generally due within 10 business days. After final funds are received, Embellishr begins coordinating the onsite Operational Inspection, professional teardown, custom crating, freight logistics, and shipment.

When installation or training has been purchased, those services are coordinated as part of the overall project schedule.

12 Will I have a dedicated project contact?

Yes. Certified buyers receive project coordination from the Embellishr team throughout the equipment transition.

Your project contact helps coordinate scheduling, technician communication, seller requirements, freight planning, documentation, delivery updates, and applicable installation services.

Marketplace Buyer Questions

Direct Seller Access. Optional Professional Support.

Marketplace is designed for buyers and sellers who prefer a more direct equipment transaction while still benefiting from industry-specific exposure and access to Embellishr resources.

Seller-to-Buyer Direct

The Seller Manages the Final Transaction.

Marketplace equipment is listed by independent sellers. The seller controls the asking price, answers equipment questions, manages negotiations, accepts payment, and establishes the final terms of sale.

Embellishr reviews the equipment intake for listing completeness and professionally presents the opportunity, but Marketplace listings do not automatically include the inspection, teardown, crating, freight, transaction management, or installation services included with Certified equipment.

01 Direct Communication With the Seller
02 Seller-Controlled Pricing and Negotiation
03 Optional Embellishr Project Services
04 Buyer Due Diligence Remains Important
Important Marketplace Distinction

Unless a listing specifically states otherwise, Marketplace equipment is sold directly by the seller and is not represented, inspected, warranted, or transacted by Embellishr.

01 What is an Embellishr Marketplace listing?

Marketplace listings are direct seller-to-buyer equipment opportunities from businesses and equipment owners within the garment-decoration industry.

Embellishr provides a professionally organized listing and industry exposure, while the seller remains responsible for pricing, equipment disclosures, buyer communication, negotiation, payment, documentation, and the final transaction.

02 Does Embellishr own Marketplace equipment?

No. Marketplace equipment is generally owned and sold directly by the independent seller identified in the listing.

Embellishr provides the listing platform, professional presentation, and buyer introduction unless a specific listing clearly states that Embellishr is providing additional transaction or project services.

03 Does Embellishr inspect Marketplace equipment?

Marketplace listings do not automatically include an Embellishr Operational Inspection.

Equipment details, photos, videos, serial numbers, condition statements, and operational information are generally provided by the seller. Buyers should review the listing carefully and request any additional information they need before purchasing.

A professional Operational Inspection may be requested as an optional paid service when the equipment, location, timing, and technician availability allow.

04 How does Embellishr review Marketplace listings?

Embellishr reviews the seller's equipment intake for completeness, including available specifications, photos, description, configuration, location, condition, and seller-provided disclosures.

This review helps create a clearer and more professional listing, but it is not the same as an onsite inspection or independent technical verification.

05 Who answers my equipment questions?

Marketplace buyers are introduced directly to the seller. The seller is responsible for answering technical, operational, maintenance, condition, history, and included-equipment questions.

Embellishr may assist with the introduction and help clarify listing information, but the seller remains the primary source for equipment-specific representations.

06 Who negotiates the equipment price?

The buyer and seller negotiate directly unless the listing clearly states that Embellishr is providing additional representation.

Marketplace sellers control their asking price, whether they accept an offer, and the final transaction terms.

07 Who receives and holds the buyer's payment?

Marketplace payments are generally made directly to the seller according to the terms agreed between the buyer and seller.

Buyers should independently confirm payment instructions, equipment ownership, lien status, documentation, and transaction terms before sending funds.

Embellishr does not automatically hold Marketplace buyer funds in escrow unless a separate written service agreement specifically provides otherwise.

08 Does Embellishr verify liens on Marketplace equipment?

Marketplace sellers are responsible for accurately disclosing ownership and lien status.

Embellishr does not automatically complete the same lien verification or lender payoff coordination used in the Certified program. Buyers should request appropriate ownership documentation and lien-release information before completing the transaction.

09 Is teardown and crating included?

No. Marketplace equipment does not automatically include professional disassembly or custom crating.

The buyer and seller may coordinate removal independently, or either party may request a separate quote from Embellishr for professional teardown, rigging, crating, loading, or related project support.

10 Can Embellishr coordinate freight?

Freight coordination may be requested as an optional service.

Depending on the project, Embellishr may help quote or coordinate carrier scheduling, dedicated freight, cargo insurance, pickup requirements, delivery timing, and communication between the buyer, seller, technician, and carrier.

11 Is installation or training available?

Installation and operator training may be available as separately quoted services depending on the equipment brand, model, location, technician network, facility readiness, and project schedule.

Installation and training are separate services. Purchasing installation does not automatically include operator training unless training is specifically included in the quote.

12 Can Marketplace equipment be financed?

Financing may be available depending on the equipment type, age, condition, transaction amount, seller documentation, buyer qualifications, and lender requirements.

Embellishr can provide financing introductions, but all approvals, funding requirements, and lending decisions are made by independent third-party lenders.

13 Does Marketplace equipment include a warranty?

Marketplace equipment does not include an Embellishr warranty unless warranty coverage is specifically stated in writing.

Any seller warranty, manufacturer support, service agreement, or return right should be confirmed directly with the seller before purchase.

14 What should I verify before purchasing Marketplace equipment?

Buyers should confirm the equipment configuration, serial numbers, year, electrical requirements, condition, operating status, included accessories, known issues, lien status, payment terms, removal requirements, loading capabilities, shipping plan, and final sale documentation.

Buyers should also determine whether an onsite inspection, professional technician review, video demonstration, freight quote, or installation consultation is appropriate before completing the purchase.

15 How do I request an introduction to the seller?

Submit the Request Seller Introduction form on the applicable Marketplace listing.

The Embellishr team will review your inquiry, provide the seller introduction, and begin discussing any optional services you requested, such as inspection, freight, teardown, installation, training, appraisal, or financing assistance.

Certified Purchase Process

From Reservation Through Delivery.

Once you are ready to purchase a Certified equipment package, Embellishr coordinates the transaction and equipment transition through a structured project process.

Certified Reservation Deposit $5,000 Applied toward the purchase price

Reserve the Equipment. Remove It From the Market.

The Reservation Deposit marks the Certified equipment package as sold and removes it from active marketing while the buyer completes final payment and any applicable financing requirements.

10 Business Days Standard period to remit remaining funds
Applied in Full Credited toward the final equipment balance
Project Coordination Begins After final cleared funds are received
What Happens Next

Your Certified Equipment Transition Timeline.

01

Reservation Deposit

Submit the $5,000 Reservation Deposit to secure the package and remove it from the market.

02

Final Funds

The remaining equipment balance is generally due within 10 business days by cleared funds or approved lender funding.

03

Onsite Inspection

A Certified Contract Technician verifies standard operation, documents the equipment, and confirms the package before removal.

04

Professional Teardown

The equipment is professionally disassembled, documented, and prepared according to the requirements of the package.

05

Custom Crating

Components are secured and custom crated for loading and transport based on equipment size and shipment requirements.

06

Freight & Delivery

Embellishr coordinates loading, insured freight, transit updates, delivery requirements, and receiving communication.

07

Installation

When purchased, professional installation is coordinated after the equipment arrives and the buyer's facility is confirmed ready.

08

Project Completion

Final documentation, applicable installation testing, training, and project closeout are completed.

Dedicated Project Coordination

Your Embellishr project contact coordinates communication between the buyer, seller, technician, freight carrier, lender, and installation team throughout the applicable stages of the project.

01 Is the $5,000 Reservation Deposit applied toward my purchase?

Yes. The Reservation Deposit is applied in full toward the final Certified equipment purchase price.

It is not an additional charge above the agreed equipment price.

02 Why is a Reservation Deposit required?

The deposit confirms the buyer's intent to complete the purchase, allows Embellishr to mark the package sold, and removes the equipment from active marketing while final payment is completed.

03 When is the remaining balance due?

The remaining Certified equipment balance is generally due within 10 business days after the Reservation Deposit is received.

Different timing may apply when lender documentation, lien payoff, or another written transaction requirement affects the funding schedule.

04 What payment methods are accepted?

Final payment is generally completed by wire transfer, ACH, or lender funding according to the instructions provided by the Embellishr accounting team.

Buyers should only remit funds using payment instructions delivered through confirmed Embellishr communication channels.

05 Does project scheduling begin after the deposit?

Preliminary project planning may begin after the Reservation Deposit, but onsite service, teardown, crating, and freight scheduling generally move forward after final cleared funds are received.

06 How long does teardown and shipment usually take?

Timing varies by equipment type, seller availability, technician scheduling, parts requirements, crating scope, freight availability, and buyer receiving readiness.

When professional teardown is required, buyers should generally expect the transition to take several weeks rather than immediate shipment. Your project manager will provide updates as dates are confirmed.

07 What happens if the onsite inspection identifies a problem?

Embellishr documents the concern and works with the seller to determine the appropriate resolution before the equipment is prepared for shipment.

The resolution may involve repair, parts replacement, an updated disclosure, or another written agreement depending on the issue and transaction terms.

08 Are freight and installation included in the equipment price?

Freight, installation, training, rigging, forklift service, storage, and other project expenses are not automatically included unless they are specifically identified in the buyer's written proposal or invoice.

These services are generally funded by the buyer and coordinated according to the selected project scope.

09 When should I prepare my facility?

Facility preparation should begin as early as possible after the purchase is confirmed.

Buyers should review electrical, gas, compressed air, ventilation, water, drainage, doorway, ceiling-height, floor-space, forklift, and placement requirements before delivery or installation is scheduled.

10 How is installation scheduled?

Installation is scheduled after freight timing, technician availability, and buyer facility readiness are confirmed.

Buyers must complete applicable utility and receiving requirements before the technician arrives. Delays caused by incomplete facility preparation may require installation to be rescheduled.

11 Is installation the same as operator training?

No. Installation covers equipment placement, assembly, setup, startup, and applicable operational testing.

Operator training is a separate service unless it is specifically included in the buyer's written project scope.

12 Will I receive project updates?

Yes. Your Embellishr project contact provides updates as funding, inspection, teardown, crating, freight, delivery, and applicable installation milestones are confirmed.

Select Certified Packages

60-Day Parts Warranty Program.

When Professional Installation is purchased and completed through Embellishr or an authorized Embellishr technician, select Certified equipment packages may include limited parts coverage during the critical first 60 days of operation.

Coverage Period 60 Days

Beginning on the date your Embellishr installation is completed.

Installation Activates Coverage

Properly Installed. Tested From Day One.

Installation allows the technician to confirm that the equipment has been assembled correctly, required utilities meet specifications, and the machine is operating under real production conditions.

Because electrical supply, compressed air, setup, reassembly, and facility conditions can directly affect equipment performance, warranty eligibility is tied to installation performed through Embellishr.

01 Professional Setup
02 Utility Verification
03 Operational Testing
Limited Parts Coverage

What May Be Covered

Coverage applies to qualifying components on the main production equipment identified in the applicable purchase agreement or warranty documentation.

Automatic screen-printing presses

Production dryers

Qualifying embroidery production machinery

Other approved core production equipment

Replacement parts approved through the Embellishr warranty review process

Coverage is package-specific.

Your proposal, invoice, or written warranty documentation will confirm whether the equipment qualifies.

Coverage Limitations

What Is Not Covered

Ancillary equipment such as exposure units and washout booths

Screens, squeegees, supplies, inks, consumables, or accessories

Normal wear items such as bulbs, fuses, filters, belts, and similar components

Cosmetic concerns or ordinary signs of prior use

Damage caused during freight, rigging, storage, or third-party installation

Electrical, gas, air, ventilation, utility, or environmental problems within the buyer's facility

Labor, travel, service calls, diagnosis, or technician expenses unless specifically approved in writing

Damage caused by misuse, improper maintenance, modification, neglect, or operation outside manufacturer requirements

Warranty Support Process

Something Is Not Working. What Happens Next?

Contact Embellishr as soon as an issue is identified. Do not authorize repairs, purchase replacement parts, or alter the equipment before the concern has been reviewed.

01

Contact Embellishr

Report the concern promptly and provide the equipment details, installation date, and description of the issue.

02

Technical Review

The servicing technician or manufacturer support team may request photos, video, error messages, utility readings, or troubleshooting information.

03

Coverage Determination

Embellishr reviews whether the equipment, component, timing, and reported condition qualify under the applicable warranty terms.

04

Approved Parts Support

When approved, Embellishr coordinates the applicable replacement part. Additional labor or service expenses remain the buyer's responsibility unless approved otherwise in writing.

The Key Requirement

If you want warranty protection, Professional Installation must be included.

Without installation through Embellishr, the equipment is sold as-is and verified operational at the time of inspection unless different coverage is explicitly confirmed in writing.

01 When does the 60-day warranty period begin?

The warranty period begins on the date Professional Installation is completed by Embellishr or an authorized Embellishr technician.

It does not begin on the purchase date, payment date, shipping date, or delivery date.

02 Does every Certified equipment purchase include the warranty?

No. The warranty applies only to qualifying Certified equipment packages when Professional Installation is purchased and performed through Embellishr, unless different coverage is expressly provided in writing.

03 Why is Professional Installation required?

Installation allows the technician to confirm correct assembly, inspect utility connections, verify electrical and pneumatic requirements, and test the equipment under actual operating conditions.

Without this process, Embellishr cannot verify whether a later issue was caused by the equipment, reassembly, the facility, utility supply, or a third-party installer.

04 What happens if I do not purchase installation?

The equipment is sold as-is and is verified operational at the time of the applicable Operational Inspection.

No Embellishr parts warranty is included unless coverage is specifically confirmed in writing. Future troubleshooting, repairs, parts, labor, and service expenses are the buyer's responsibility.

05 Does the warranty include technician labor?

No. This is a limited parts warranty.

Technician labor, diagnosis, travel, lodging, freight, expedited shipping, service calls, and related expenses are not included unless specifically approved by Embellishr in writing.

06 What should I do if something stops working?

Contact Embellishr immediately and provide a detailed description of the issue along with photos, videos, error codes, and any requested operating information.

Do not order parts, perform repairs, or authorize outside work before receiving written direction. Unauthorized repairs or modifications may affect coverage.

07 Who performs technical troubleshooting after installation?

Technical troubleshooting is generally performed through the servicing technician or the equipment manufacturer's support team.

Embellishr coordinates warranty-covered parts when applicable but does not provide ongoing technical diagnosis or field service directly.

08 Does the Operational Inspection guarantee future performance?

No. The Operational Inspection confirms that the equipment is functioning at the time of inspection.

It cannot guarantee future performance after transportation, reinstallation, changes in electrical or air supply, operator use, maintenance, environmental changes, or ordinary wear.

09 Is freight damage covered by the parts warranty?

No. Damage caused during transit is handled separately through the applicable freight or cargo insurance process.

Buyers should inspect the shipment promptly at delivery and document any visible damage before the driver departs whenever possible.

10 Can the warranty be extended beyond 60 days?

Embellishr does not currently offer extended warranties on pre-owned equipment.

Paid technician support, manufacturer support, remote troubleshooting, or service coordination may be available depending on the equipment and technician network.

11 Can warranty coverage be transferred to another owner?

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Embellishr warranty coverage is limited to the original buyer and equipment project identified in the applicable transaction documents.

Buyer Support

General Buyer Questions.

From equipment selection and financing through freight, receiving, installation, and post-delivery support, these are the questions buyers most frequently ask before moving forward.

Quick Reference

What do you need help with?

01 How do I know which equipment package is right for my shop?

Start by reviewing your current production volume, available floor space, electrical service, compressed-air capacity, staffing, decoration method, garment mix, and expected growth.

Embellishr can help you compare available equipment based on your production goals, but the buyer is responsible for confirming that the selected equipment is appropriate for the intended application and facility.

02 Can Embellishr recommend equipment based on my production needs?

Yes. Our team can discuss your current workflow, production volume, preferred decoration method, space limitations, and future plans to help identify equipment that may be a strong fit.

Recommendations are based on the information provided by the buyer and do not replace manufacturer specifications, facility review, or independent technical due diligence.

03 Can I see the equipment operate before purchasing?

Availability depends on the listing type, seller schedule, equipment status, location, and whether the package remains installed and operational.

Certified packages generally include documented Operational Inspection information. Marketplace buyers may request additional videos, a virtual demonstration, an onsite visit, or an independent inspection directly through the seller when available.

04 Can I visit the seller's facility in person?

In-person visits may be available with seller approval and advance scheduling.

Buyers should not arrive at a seller location without a confirmed appointment. Facility access, production schedules, safety requirements, confidentiality restrictions, and seller availability may limit onsite visits.

05 Is pre-owned equipment sold as-is?

Unless specific written warranty coverage is included, pre-owned equipment is sold as-is and subject to the representations, disclosures, inspection information, and transaction terms provided for the individual package.

Certified status does not mean the equipment is new or free from ordinary wear. It means Embellishr has completed the applicable verification and project process for that package.

06 Are manufacturer warranties transferable?

Manufacturer warranties are generally not transferable unless the manufacturer confirms otherwise in writing.

Buyers should not assume that any original factory warranty, software agreement, service contract, or promotional coverage will transfer with the equipment.

07 Is financing available for pre-owned equipment?

Financing may be available through independent lenders depending on the buyer's credit profile, business history, equipment type, purchase amount, and lender requirements.

Embellishr can provide equipment documentation and connect buyers with financing resources, but loan approval, rates, terms, deposits, and funding decisions are controlled entirely by the lender.

08 Should I apply for financing before choosing equipment?

Buyers who plan to finance should begin the application process as early as possible.

Prequalification can help establish a realistic budget and reduce delays once the right package becomes available. Equipment remains available until it is formally reserved or purchased according to the applicable transaction terms.

09 Can freight, installation, or training be financed too?

Some lenders may allow eligible project costs to be included in the financed amount, while others finance only the equipment purchase.

Buyers should discuss freight, rigging, installation, training, taxes, and other project expenses with their lender before finalizing the financing structure.

10 Are taxes included in the listed equipment price?

Applicable sales tax, use tax, registration fees, customs charges, duties, or other governmental costs are not included unless specifically stated.

Tax treatment varies by buyer location, seller location, delivery destination, exemption status, and transaction structure. Buyers should consult their tax advisor regarding their specific obligations.

11 How is freight priced?

Freight pricing depends on equipment dimensions, weight, origin, destination, access requirements, loading method, delivery method, insurance value, fuel pricing, and carrier availability.

Quotes may change if the shipment scope, dimensions, destination, timing, loading conditions, or delivery requirements change.

12 What is the difference between dedicated freight and partial freight?

Dedicated freight generally means the truck is reserved primarily for your shipment and moves directly between pickup and delivery, subject to carrier routing and legal requirements.

Partial freight shares trailer space with other shipments and may involve additional handling, terminals, stops, or transit time. Dedicated service is often recommended for larger, sensitive, or higher-value production systems.

13 Is freight insurance included?

Freight insurance is included only when specifically identified in the written freight scope or invoice.

Standard carrier liability may be significantly lower than the full equipment value. Buyers should confirm the insured value, coverage terms, exclusions, deductible, and claims process before shipment.

14 What do I need at my facility for delivery?

Delivery requirements vary by shipment but may include a commercial receiving address, loading dock, forklift, extended forks, rigging crew, pallet jack, clear access, appropriate doorway dimensions, and personnel authorized to sign for the shipment.

Buyers must confirm receiving requirements before dispatch. Failed delivery, detention, redelivery, storage, liftgate, or additional handling charges may be billed to the buyer.

15 What should I do when the shipment arrives?

Inspect the shipment before the driver departs whenever possible. Check crates, pallets, wrapping, machinery, and loose components for visible damage or missing items.

Photograph the shipment from multiple angles and note any visible concerns directly on the delivery receipt or bill of lading before signing. Report potential freight damage immediately so the applicable claims process can begin.

16 Can I store the equipment if my facility is not ready?

Storage may be available through third-party providers depending on location, equipment size, access requirements, and timing.

Storage fees, handling, insurance, loading, unloading, and future transportation are separate expenses. Equipment should remain protected from moisture, temperature extremes, dust, impact, and unauthorized access.

17 What is included with Professional Installation?

The installation scope depends on the equipment package and written proposal but may include equipment placement, reassembly, leveling, connection review, startup, calibration, and basic operational testing.

Electrical work, plumbing, gas work, ducting, ventilation, concrete, structural work, utility upgrades, permits, rigging, and facility modifications are generally not included unless specifically stated.

18 What must be completed before the installer arrives?

The equipment must be onsite, accessible, and positioned according to the agreed installation plan.

Required electrical service, compressed air, gas, ventilation, water, drainage, networking, climate control, floor space, and other utilities must be completed, tested, and available before the technician arrives.

19 Is operator training included with installation?

Installation and operator training are separate services unless the written project scope specifically includes both.

Training may cover startup, shutdown, basic controls, routine operation, maintenance practices, job setup, and workflow depending on the equipment and technician.

20 Can my own technician install the equipment?

Buyers may choose their own technician unless the transaction terms require otherwise.

However, using a technician outside the Embellishr-approved network may affect warranty eligibility, project coordination, available support, and responsibility for installation-related concerns.

21 Who do I contact if I need technical help after delivery?

Technical support is generally provided by the servicing technician, manufacturer support department, or another qualified service provider.

Embellishr can help coordinate communication and identify available support resources, but ongoing technical service, diagnosis, labor, travel, and parts are separate unless covered by a written warranty or service agreement.

22 Can Embellishr help me find replacement parts?

Embellishr may be able to help identify the manufacturer, servicing technician, distributor, or parts resource associated with the equipment.

Parts availability, pricing, lead times, compatibility, and manufacturer support cannot be guaranteed for pre-owned equipment.

23 What happens if equipment information changes before purchase?

Equipment remains in an active production environment until removed from service, so hours, impressions, stitch counts, included accessories, availability, and condition may change.

Material updates should be documented before final purchase. Buyers should review the final equipment description, included items, exclusions, disclosures, and transaction documents before funding.

24 Can a seller withdraw equipment before I reserve it?

Yes. Equipment availability can change until the applicable deposit, agreement, or purchase requirement has been completed.

Sellers may continue operating, marketing, relocating, or otherwise managing their equipment until it is formally reserved or sold under the applicable transaction terms.

25 Does Embellishr guarantee that equipment will meet my production goals?

No. Production output depends on many factors, including equipment configuration, operator experience, artwork, garments, supplies, facility conditions, workflow, maintenance, job complexity, and production management.

Buyers are responsible for evaluating whether the equipment is suitable for their specific business, production, and financial objectives.

Every Equipment Project Is Different

Equipment type, location, seller requirements, facility readiness, financing, teardown scope, freight method, and installation needs can all affect the process. Your written proposal and transaction documents will identify the terms that apply to your purchase.
