Once received, the Quality Control Department will perform a thorough inspection of the items returned to confirm that the item is defective. If it is determined that the item is: not defective, still in working order or damaged as a result of improper installation/handling; the RMA will be canceled. The item will be shipped back to Buyer and the shipping cost will be charged to Buyer.
