We stand behind the quality of products we sell. While cases are rare, damages and defects do happen occasionally. You must inspect your item(s) upon delivery. If damage is noted, you must sign off with the carrier agent “Damaged Upon Arrival”. Please take pictures to document the damage. If an item is structurally intact and usable, accept the item. If an item is structurally damaged and completely unusable, refuse the item. If you refuse the whole shipment, including undamaged items, you are responsible for accepting the re-delivery of the undamaged items within 7 (seven) days, in addition to all costs associated with the re-delivery including but not limited to storage fees.

Claims received past 3 (three) calendar days from date of confirmed delivery will not be eligible for compensation. For all damages and defects, we will require clear photographs to be attached with your claim within the 3 (three) calendar days of delivery. We will send out a new product, a replacement part, offer blemish discount, or offer local repair reimbursement at our discretion. If you do not wish to accept any of our solutions to the case, you will be responsible for returning the item(s) to us to receive your product refund.
