ABOUT MPL
  • MPL is a mail-order company that sells complete PC systems as well as individual components.
  • Our complete PC systems are tested elaborately prior to delivery and consist of top quality components.
  • If required, orders exceeding 500 EUR can be collected at our technical service in Niel. This is also where you can go for upgrades or to check out a certain type of screen, etcetera. Please note you will need to make an appointment by telephone!
  • MPL is no mastodon of a company, but it is a company that fits the size of its customers. Unlike at some other mail-order companies, we do not treat our customers like numbers. We stand for an optimal service to each of our clients. The following people carefully attend to this:
    • Geert Hermans (manager): geert@mpl.be or 03/326.11.11: questions on period of delivery, administrative affairs, suggestions, remarks or complaints, dealer conditions, etcetera.
    • David Van Dromme: david@mpl.be or 015/52.73.40: offers, product information and technical problems.
    • Glenn Christiaens: glenn@mpl.be or 03/326.22.22: administration and accounting.
    • info@mpl.be: any question that does not directly concern any of the above.
  • Short history of MPL: MPL was founded on April 1st 1995. First as a mail-order company through BBS and since 1996 as an online store via the internet. This made MPL one of the very first online stores in Belgium. In the beginning MPL was a one man company. On January 1st 1998, MPL turned into a private liability limited company.

Upon ordering, please mention following information:

Next to this mandatory information, you can also mention following:
  • Delivery address, if it differs from the address of billing

  • VISA/MasterCard card number and expiration date if you wish to pay by credit card. The MPL-website uses the Ogone payment platform on a secure server, which totally secures this method of payment.
  • If you wish to collect the goods yourself (only possible for orders exceeding 500 EUR), please explicitly mention this upon ordering. Please also mention your phone number. This way we can contact you as soon as the goods have been delivered to our technical service, enabling you to collect your order as soon as possible.

SHIPPING COSTS PER ORDER
Shipping costs are calculated based on fixed rates, irrespective of the weight of the order:
  • 10 EUR for deliveries with BPS in Belgium (delivery between 9 am and 5 pm);
  • 20 EUR for taxipost shipments;
  • 30 EUR for shipments to the Netherlands.
If you opt for a BPS delivery, please mention a delivery address where there is a continuous attendance between 9 am and 5 pm. This might be your work address, a relative, the neighbours, … This is absolutely necessary as we cannot give you any idea of the exact time of delivery (not even if it will be in the morning or in the afternoon). However, the exact day of delivery will be sent to you by email one day beforehand. If you do not have an address with continuous nine to five attendance, please choose the taxipost deliver method - which is also available for Saturday morning deliveries - or contact us for your best option.

PAYMENT
Upon delivery of the goods there are three options:
  • Cash on delivery (the simplest method by far): you pay the goods when you receive them. You can use cash or cheque.
  • VISA/MasterCard: state your VISA/MasterCard card number and date of expiration upon ordering. Your card will then be charged when the goods are shipped.
  • Transfer: this option is only available to government agencies, schools and universities.
If you choose to collect your goods at the technical service, you can pay on site with cash or cheque. You will immediately receive your invoice, as is the case for home deliveries.

PERIOD OF DELIVERY
  • Individual components: two days to a week on average.
  • Complete PC systems: one week on average.

WARRANTY
In accordance with applicable Belgian law & with extension to the conditions provided by the manufacturer if they offer longer warranty.

MAINTENANCE CONTRACT
There is also the possibility of a 24 hour maintenance contract for companies. More information and prices are available upon request.

IN CASE OF A DEFECT
In case of a defect of a PC assembled by MPL, call 03/326.11.11 to make an appointment to return the PC. If you bought components, please send the defect component by mail to MPL accompanied by a copy of the invoice and a description of the defect. Please ask for a receipt (a barcode strip) upon handing in your package at the post office. Costs for shipment of a defect part to MPL are borne by the customer. MPL pays for the shipment of the repaired or replaced part.
If so desired, it is also possible to hand in the defect component at the technical service in Niel. Please call first (03/326.11.11) to make an appointment.
