Customer Return Policy & Warranty Disclaimer Statement

Customer Return Policy.
You may return products only with the Stock Market's prior written approval utilizing a Return Authorization Number obtained from the Customer Service Department. A 15% restocking charge will be made on all returns, except in cases of a manufacturing defect returnable pursuant to the manufacturer's warranty, or a shipping error on the part of the Stock Market. Special order items and Google products are not returnable. There is no right of set-off. The Customer Service Department may authorize credit memoranda for authorized returns subject to material being in salable condition upon return, or a deduction for putting the material in salable condition will be made. All claims, shortages and damages must be reported within five (5) days of receipt of merchandise. Claims for products damaged or lost in transit should be made by buyer to the carrier, as the Stock Market's responsibility ceases upon delivery to the carrier. All sales are otherwise made subject to the Stock Market's Conditions and Terms of Sale.
