Configured scientific equipment may be noncancelable or nonreturnable. Read the current quotation and applicable terms before issuing the order.

Deposit, manufacturer commitment, engineering work and noncancelable milestones.

Change orders
Who can approve configuration, quantity, destination, schedule or document changes.

Special order is a commercial condition, not a marketing phrase
The quotation should identify whether equipment is configured, custom, built to order, calibrated for the buyer or otherwise subject to restricted cancellation and return rights.
Do not rely on a generic website summary
Terms can vary by manufacturer, seller, country, product and transaction. The accepted quotation and incorporated terms control.
Turn this research into a controlled technical request.
