Packages with payment at destination will not be accepted by Futurasmus and will be returned to origin. Futurasmus does not take over any customs fee; therefore, the devices must be clearly and correctly sent as "noncommercial value products" (1€) indicating the date of purchase and invoice number as they are malfunctioning units which have already processed by customs at the time of purchase.

Once the needed verifications on the malfunctioning of the product are done, there can be three scenarios:

1. If proven that the device has a manufacturing failure, Futurasmus will ship the product to the manufacturer and will finally send the repaired or replaced product to the client.

In some cases, there could be associated costs (delivery, manipulation, labour (depending on the manufacturer). In case the amount of the offer is accepted, the manufacturer will proceed to repair the item, the delivery of the repaired unit will be made as soon as the payment of the offer has been received.

3. If once the device is tested and no failure or defect is found, the item will be returned to the client, charging the shipping expenses on the client’s side.

Returns

In case there is an intention of returning a device (for any reason) an “RMA request” must also be made in order to proceed to return the device. There are various methods of doing this depending on the type of return.

For the acceptance of these types of returns it is necessary that the material has not been used and its package and accessories are received by Futurasmus, S.L.in prefect conditions. The manufacturer can charge a return or depreciation fee. In case the material has been used it is on the manufacturer’s will to accept the return and to establish the associated costs. The client will have to assume the shipping expenses.

NOTICE: In any case, the return policy will be established by the manufacturer. There are manufacturers that don’t accept returns. For more information related to this matter please contact our sales department.
