RMA Shipping Address and Instructions

Return of Merchandise Authorization (RMA) 

Before sending any OpenEye product back for repair, replacement or return, an Return of Merchandise Authorization (RMA) request must be issued through the OpenEye support team. 

Security Deposit Method 
RMA Purchase Order (Preferred)

Once an RMA is created, a notification email will be sent to the RMA contacts on file. No response is required. This billing method ensures the fastest and most efficient RMA processing.

Individual Purchase Order

When an RMA is created, an email will be sent to the RMA contacts on file requesting a purchase order (PO) for the RMA deposit. Processing will begin once the PO is received.

Submitting individual or itemized purchase orders may delay your RMA. To simplify future returns, please complete our DocuSign form to keep an RMA PO on file.

Important: After your RMA is created you will receive an email that must be completed and returned. Your RMA will not be processed until we receive your response.

RMA Types
Advance Replacement

If an advance replacement is approved, OpenEye will ship a replacement product and provide a return shipping label. Please use the same box and label to return the defective item.

In Warranty Part

For products under warranty that require part replacement (e.g., storage drive, power supply), OpenEye will ship the replacement part via FedEx Overnight (10:30 AM). A return shipping label for the defective part will be provided.

Repair

This option applies when sending a system in for repair. Please review the shipping information section below. Once OpenEye receives the system, you will be contacted via email with next steps.

Return

Eligible products may be returned for credit. Please complete our Credit Return Form and email it to support@openeye.net.

  • Parts returned within 45 days qualify for full credit.
  • Parts returned between 46–90 days qualify for credit minus a 15% restocking fee.
  • Products must be new and in resalable condition to qualify for credit, regardless of the purchase date

Note: See Warranty Order Application Terms and Conditions for more information of RMA types and process.
