We offer refunds, but only if the following two conditions are met. First, you notify us within 15 days of receiving the item. Second, the item was not described accurately in the listing. We do our best to describe every lot fully and accurately, but we are not perfect. If the lot is damaged in a way that was not described, you can certainly return it. Likewise, if we missed a repair or the item turns out to be a reproduction. When we make mistakes, we take responsibility. We will refund the full price, including shipping (both ways). Most auction houses offer no warranties. We stand behind our descriptions!
