2. Customer's agree to report directly to Safety Central lost, damage, missing items, missing parts or incorrect order and shipping claims within 48 hours of receiving shipment, as some items are shipped from 3rd parties and these parties to do necessarily inform us in a timely manner. Failure to do so results in the forfeiture of any possible remedy from Safety Central and additional shipping cost will apply to meet timely delivery or replacement of goods. Furthermore, customers are responsible for 100% of the item cost for products returned that have been altered, modified or damaged, other than as reported above within 48 hours of receipt of order. We will notify you of the result of our evaluation (Test) and if unclaimed damage, modification or alteration is found and the item is not restockable, credit will not be issued but we will offer you the option of having the item shipped back to you at your cost. If you do not reply, you agree that we will hold the item for a period of 30 days and then discard the item after that term has expired.

3. There are NO PRODUCT WARRANTIES offered by Safety Central. All product warranty claims are between the customer and manufacturer. Customers agree that these items can only be returned to manufacturers for replacement/repair except in cases of Safety Central shipping the wrong item or shipping damage reported to us within our policy terms. NO EXCEPTIONS. The period for credit and replacement of allowable items is 10 days except as noted.

4. Due to abuse, mis-information and less-than honest attempts at obtaining an RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization), we use the initial RMA request to determine most RMA qualifications. We do not guarantee an item will work for a customer's intended purpose but, that the item will function as advertised.

5. Safety Central does not offer advanced replacement for defective items. Customers must pay for return shipping on all authorized returns. Standard shipping (UPS Ground or USPS Parcel Post) will be credited for items found to be defective and returned complete and unaltered within 10 days of issued RMA. Safety Central does not refund express shipping charges.

8. It is the responsibility on the cardholder to verify that sufficient funds are available for the full amount of the purchase prior to placing an order with us. We may make a second attempt to charge a credit card prior to contacting you regarding this issue. A $5.00 reprocessing fee will be added each time we attempt to charge the credit card.

9. UPS charges a $10.00 fee for shipping address corrections while package is in transit, this fee will be passed on to you. Address corrections are not guaranteed. Reshipping charges may apply.

14. In the event that a defective component is discovered within an assembled kit or system we reserve the right to replace said component with an item of equal or greater value.

15. Customer's agree that we offer replacements only for defective products. We are sorry for the inconvenience this poses to our customers but due to the nature of our business, our agreements and limitations with our suppliers, the constant changing of product models, various product functionality expectations from customers, and the condition of product packaging received from returned products. We understand there are legitimate extenuating circumstances but it would be unfair to others if we were to offer a refund for an item beyond our defective only return policy.
