Restocking Fees

A restocking fee is a percentage of the item’s price, depending on the type of item and the condition in which it is returned.  Restocking fees are not a profit center for us. We don’t make money on restocking fees. Even with the fee we still have some loss on the overall order.   Why restocking fee? We do not want to profit by selling low-quality products and charging high restocking fees. However, restocking fees become necessary in order for us to keep our costs and prices down. A majority of customers never return items. When items are returned in non-resellable conditions, we have to sell them as used and below costs. If not paid by those who returned them, the additional costs had to be “shared” by others, which we believe are not fair. We choose to keep our prices down by charging a restocking fee to non-defective, non-fault returns. We try to keep the restocking fee as low as possible and in line with the cost associated with the return. The fee is simply to help us recover a portion of the expenses incurred for original packaging, inspection, repacking, and restocking the returned products.
