SPLat educational discount policy

Subject to change without notice

Educational discounts may be granted at our discretion to bona fide secondary and tertiary institutions and to students for use in project work or self study. Commercial or government funded product research is excluded.

This policy applies to direct sales only. There is no obligation on resellers to offer discounts.

Within Australia, New Zealand, UK, USA and Canada: Students buying for use in an official student project:

45% discount off the applicable published list price. Limit 2 controllers per student per year. Students will require written documentation from the institution certifying that the product is genuinely for use in a student project

Note:

  1. We reserve the right to refuse credit. Students must pre-pay.
  2. Hobbled means the board has been modified to reduce its useability outside education (e.g. program storage is volatile). It is otherwise a fully functional unit. We offer less discount for small numbers, more for classroom sets (reflecting extra effort to hobble a few). Hobbling provides security for the educational institution. Trainer boards count as hobbled product.
Other parts of the world:

As above but the discount is not to exceed 35% off. For example, 25 units, prepaid with order, the discount is 35%.
