8)              HANDLING AND RE-STOCKING CHARGE FOR RETURNED PARTS

8.1            Due to high volume of orders that we process every day, it is inevitable that many customers will sometimes wish to return parts. This can be for a variety of reasons.

8.2            If a part is faulty, damaged or wrongly supplied we will always offer a full credit or replacement. All we ask is that goods are thoroughly re-packed to avoid damage during return shipment to our works.

8.3            You must ship the goods back to us at your own expense. However if the returned goods are faulty, damaged or wrongly supplied we may offer to collect at our own expense or we may offer to credit your return shipping costs.

8.4            Because of the considerable cost of handling and thoroughly inspecting returned goods you will understand that wrongly ordered parts may be subject to a 15% handling/re-stocking charge. This is often less than our true cost. The only alternative is for us to increase our prices to absorb this cost, this however, would be unfair to the majority of our customers who only return occasional items, they would be subsidising those who are less efficient and mis-order on a regular basis.

8.5            No parts will be accepted back without completion of our goods returns note.

 

9)              PROCEDURE FOR CLAIMING WARRANTY

9.1            The customer must return the product in question at his own expense to Nailsea Power Cleaning Limited with a completed returns note (available on request).

9.5)           If after inspection an item is found to be faulty and is covered by warranty, then testing and carriage charges will be refunded and full credit given or replacement offered

9.6)           If you require a replacement part urgently, the item will be despatched and charged for, regardless as to the outcome of the warranty claim. Upon receipt of the claimed item, if warranty is applicable full credit will be given, if not then the charge will stand.
