Returns FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions):
How do I send my return?
- Please contact us to initiate your return. We will issue you a RGA (Return Goods Authorization) and details for where you will send your return.
When and why do I have to pay a restocking fee?
- The items on our website have a 20% restocking fee. This is not a fee imposed by Trimbuddies.com, but rather by our suppliers. Thus, we pass this cost along to our customer when you elect to initiate a General Return.
How do I cancel an order?
-
Please contact us as soon as possible (info@trimbuddies.com) to cancel an order, as shipments can process quickly in some cases. An order may not be canceled if it has already been shipped.
When should I expect my refund?
- You can expect your refund to be applied within 3-5 business days of receipt and inspection of your return.
What is a Return Goods Authorization (RGA) and when will I receive it after I start a return?
- An RGA is used as a reference to help us track returns. This identifies the return and associates it with your order number. It may take anywhere between 3-5 business days to process and issue an RGA.
What is a PrePaid Label (PPL) and when will I receive it?
- A PPL is a prepaid label to return your item(s) via USPS, FedEx, DHL or UPS. PPLs are provided for all returns set up by one of our customer service team members, or via the web. PPLs for defective returns are provided at no cost. For general returns, PPLs are provided by default and the cost of shipping will be deducted from your credit. PPLs will be sent as an embedded URL link in the body of your RGA email.
My purchase was damaged in transit. How do I return it, request a replacement, and/or file a freight claim?
-
If you notice damage while the carrier is on site, DO NOT take possession of the damaged product(s). Instead, take a picture of the damage, gather copies of the paperwork from the carrier (if possible), and refuse delivery. Next, contact us at info@trimbuddies.com.
If you notice damage after delivery (concealed damage), then take pictures of the damage, and contact us at info@trimbuddies.com. Carriers often only allow two (2) business days after delivery to file a freight claim, so please contact us as soon as possible to initiate your return and/or replacement.
After the return is set up, please hold the damaged product(s), along with any damaged packaging, for 30 days as the carrier may want to pick up or inspect it. If after 30 days you have not been contacted by Trimbuddies.com or by the carrier, you are free to dispose of the damaged product(s).
We will not be able to help with any complaints of damages, including visible or material defects, after the product has been used or altered.
I did not receive all my products, or some items are not what I purchased. What do I do?
-
There are occasions when an order is shipped from multiple locations and will arrive at different times. In the event that all material is not delivered, please contact us at info@trimbuddies.com.
If you believe you have received the wrong product, please verify the item number of the product you received against the order confirmation email and/or packing list. If anything does not match, please contact us at info@trimbuddies.com so we can assist in getting the wrong item(s) returned and the order corrected.
My purchase was lost in transit, what should I do?
- In case of a lost shipment, please contact the shipping carrier and reference your tracking number.
