We understand that a solid and honest  return policy and warranty are important for you to have confidence in  your purchase. We want to make sure our customers never get stuck with a  wrong piece of gear. Unfortunately, there are those who take advantage  of such policies and warranties, so we reserve the right, for those who  violate the spirit of our return policy with excessive returns, to limit  or suspend their return privileges.
