Product must be returned with prior approval and issuance of a return material authorization number (RMA#). To obtain an RMA# call 1-813-645-9833.

Product determined to be defective by the applicable manufacturer shall either be replaced, or credit will be issued at the discretion of MSL. Product returned as defective, and is not, will be returned to the customer. Product returned due to ordering errors, or product no longer wanted by the customer, will be subject to a 25% restocking charge, provided that MSL agrees to take back the merchandise. Special orders may not be returned. No returns after 60 days. Without notification, manufacturers delist products. In this instance MSL reserves the right to substitute a similar product at our discretion. Please order carefully as we will charge a 15% fee for cancelled orders.
