Refund, Return, and Replacement Policy

All returns will need a Return Merchandise Authorization Number (RMA#). First, check the complete policy below to see if your item is returnable. Next, Contact Customer Service with your Order#, how many, & part numbers for items you wish to return. The more detail, the better. Any returns without a RMA# will be refused. RMA#s are valid for 14 days. Returned products MUST be in original packing & unused. Once inspected & approved, a refund will be issued by the same means of purchase. Refunds are calculated by the total amount paid for the product on your original invoice minus original shipping on Free Ship Items. Shipping charges are non-refundable. Once product has been inspected & deemed returnable, you will be credited & a copy of the refund sent to the email used to place the order. Return shipping costs are the customer’s responsibility. For answers to the most common questions, check our Returns FAQ page.
