Return shipping costs are the responsibility of the customer unless the return is due to a defective, damaged, or incorrect item sent by Flexnova. In such cases, Flexnova will cover the return shipping cost.
We recommend using a trackable shipping service or purchasing shipping insurance. Flexnova is not responsible for items lost or damaged during return shipping.
8. Refunds
