Damage Policy 
Before signing for delivery, it is very important to inspect the carton for any potential damage that may have occurred while in transit. It is normal for packaging to show some wear. Carefully open each package on the same day as your delivery. You must retain the box and packing materials for a return. If there is any damage to the merchandise, inform the driver before he leaves the premises so he can note the damage on the delivery ticket. If the item is damaged, you must refuse the entire delivery and send your item back with the driver. Do not sign the delivery ticket if your item is damaged. NOTE: If you sign for the shipment, your signature is verification and a record that your merchandise has been received in good condition. Once you sign the delivery ticket, you have accepted the condition of your item and a damage claim can not be filed. Also, once you sign the delivery ticket, your item can no longer be returned for money back or for a replacement.

IMPORTANT:

We will not accept any claims of damage once you sign the delivery ticket and the item you signed for is in your possession. There are no exceptions to this Policy. Your signature on the delivery ticket is a record indicating your acceptance of the item. It also indicates there was no damage or issues with your item.
