Return Policy
"No Returns, refunds, or exchanges. Most, but not all of the items sold in the thrift store have been tested by our volunteers, but are not guaranteed to work. Purchase these items at your own rist. We cannot guarantee they will work for the purpose you intend, not can we assist you in making it work. (Volunteer testing is in no way comparable to factory testing, and may not reveal all product flaws. This explains the "used - as is" pricing.)
Be sure you know what you are buying, you cannot return it.
When purchasing boxed hardware, be sure to verify that the box contains the product. We will not be responsible if you purchase an incomplete product."
