Return Procedures
Procedure
Please call Toll Free at 877-888-COST (2678) to obtain a Return Authorization (RA) number before shipping your product. NO returns of any type will be accepted without a RA number. RA numbers are valid for 10 business days after issue and must be received in our warehouse within 30 days from the date of the invoice. Any returns will be refunded the lower of either the purchase price or current product price.
For faster service, please have the following information on hand when calling for an RA number: customer name, invoice/order number, Item number and serial number (if applicable), and nature of the problem.
Your RA number(s) must appear clearly on the shipping label on the outside of the return shipment. An RA label has been provided on the back of your order for your convenience. Fill it out and tape it on the box you are returning. Please do not mark the box itself in any other way.
We are not responsible for lost or stolen packages. All authorized returns must include a shipment tracking number. Subsequent to an approval authorization, a credit to an account or issuance of a check may take up to 30 days.
Returns must be 100% complete, in original and resalable condition, with all original boxes and packing materials, have original UPC codes on the manufacturer boxes, contain all manuals, registration card(s), software, cabling and accessories. We reserve the right to refuse a return on any product that does not meet these requirements.
Unopened/Unmarked Packages
Please notify the eCOST.com Customer Service or Sales Specialist that the package has not been opened. If the order file shows that you are returning an unopened package, our warehouse will charge a 50% restocking fee if the item is returned opened.
The Customer is responsible for shipping and handling charges on all returned items.
eCOST.com strongly recommends that you fully insure your return shipment in case it is lost or damaged and use a carrier that can provide you with proof of delivery for your protection.
