Return and cancellation policy

We will not accept returns of partially (or completely) assembled kits and unpackaged items. We will accept returns of new, un-opened items in their original packaging within 30 days of the order date, but you will have to pay for the return shipping and a $3 + 15% restocking fee. The initial shipping charge is not refundable. If you do decide to make a return, please contact us to obtain a return authorization code. We do not accept returns of batteries and AC adapters.

You can cancel an order free of charge if we receive your cancellation request before your order is processed. However, once the credit card company has processed your payment, they charge us a fee, so there is a 3.5% credit card processing fee to cancel an order if we receive your request after your payment has been processed. Please contact us as soon as possible if you would like to cancel or change your order.
