Who pays return shipping
If a board is defective, damaged in transit, or packed incorrectly, we cover shipping by issuing a prepaid label or booking a courier. If you simply decided against keeping it, you cover return transport; we apply no extra restocking deductions.
Refund timing and method
We disburse funds within 3 business days of passing return inspection. Cash-on-delivery purchases are sent via direct transfer to your nominated bank account; direct wire payments return to the funding account. Banks typically process deposits within 1-5 business days.
