Return Policy

What is your return policy?

We accept returns within 7 days of purchase (or delivery date if an item is shipped) for a full refund, and 14 days for store credit. Please note that items and packaging must be returned in the same condition in which they were purchased and all warranties and software must be unregistered to receive a full refund. A restocking fee may be applied if the return does not meet the above criteria. Any camera or lens with a factory seal that is broken is subject to a restocking fee of 15%.

Ordering 

What is your pre-order policy?

Sometimes items may not be available for immediate purchase due to a high demand/low supply situation. In this case, we accept pre-orders to allow you the opportunity to purchase one of these items. No deposit or prepayment is required. If an unavailable item is ordered off of our website, you will not be charged until the item actually ships. Alternatively, a pre-order can be placed by calling or emailing us and requesting that your information be placed on the appropriate waiting list. Orders are filled in date order only. 

Can I place an order for an item that is out of stock?

Yes, you can place an order for an out-of-stock item and it is considered a pre-order. You will not be charged for the item until it ships. A temporary authorization is placed on your credit card or PayPal account when the order is initially placed.
