Didn't work out?

​

In a world with so many options,  we want you to be a 100% satisfied with your purchase.  However, we understand this isn't always possible with a wide genre of expectations in today's constantly changing times.  Due to specific and new manufacturer refunding/non refunding (custom order) processes, their updated policies, changes in banking services, fraudulent claims, economic turn-downs, and challenges of Payment processing policy changes we have had to change and adjust our policies in accordance to protect both you the customer and ourselves.

Regular Store Items

​

  • 12° Degrees North Industries WILL NOT GIVE A REFUND ON ANY PARTS THAT HAVE NOT BEEN PRE-APPROVED.  We require you call or email us for a RA# prior to returning any parts.  We may ask for photos of the products emailed to us prior to approving a refund.  NO CREDIT WILL BE GIVEN ON ANY PARTS RETURNED WITHOUT AN APPROVED RA# INSIDE THE PACKAGE YOU ARE RETURNING TO US

  • NO credits will be given on ANY products past 30 days from your delivery date.

  • Used or damaged items/packaging will not be accepted for refund

  • Some refunds may carry a minimum re-stocking fee of up to 20% from the original purchase price minus discounts used.  Shipping costs will not be refunded

  • You are responsible for all shipping costs on ALL return items you are submitting to us for a refund.  If you ship an item back to us that we deem is in good condition, we may not offer a refund.  If this is the case, we can ship this part back to you and YOU must pay for all shipping costs

  • All Returns must be  repackaged to eliminate damage during shipping back to us.  Products damaged during the return ship process back to 12° Degrees North Industries are the full responsibility of you and the shipping company in which you choose.  If your item is damaged, lost, or stolen its on you.  We do recommend insuring your shipment back to us.

  • All orders which are cancelled due to not being in stock or because they are back ordered will carry a 20% cancellation fee.  Most products current availability is out of our hands and we cannot control when most products will be available to us. WE DO NOT CONTROL THE INVENTORY OF OTHER COMPANIES, therefore we don't always know when products will be available to complete orders

  • By clicking the confirm order button, you are authorizing the total amount of money due at that time, to be billed to your credit card or PayPal account

  • Several types of goods are exempt from being returned.  Perishable goods such as food are the premium example. We also do not accept products that are intimate or sanitary goods, hazardous materials, or flammable liquids or gasses.

  • Additional non-returnable items: Custom fabricated or made to order items: (bumpers, rack systems, swing-out bumpers, etc.. after 72 hrs of placing your order), gift cards, downloadable software or firmware products, some health, and personal care items

  • Please do not send your purchase back to the manufacturer, they will not be accepted

  • There are certain situations where only partial refunds are granted: (if applicable) Items with obvious signs of use or installation, any item not in its original re-sellable condition, is damaged or missing parts for reasons not due to our error, any item that is returned after 21 days

  • There is a flat 20% restocking fee.., Yes we know but PayPal and merchant services are no longer returning certain portions of processing fees and other fees resulting in us being penalized for your returned item.  (Honestly, we would rather you be confident in your initial purchase than charge you a restocking fee or pay merchant services for the convenience of their customers to use Debit/Credit cards on top of losing the sale after the fact)

  • Once your item is authorized, ship the product back with a tracking number in new condition with app packaging, parts, labels, and shipping materials included. PLEASE, make sure the product is packaged in a way to protect it during shipping - just like we shipped it to you

Made to Order Items (November 1, 2021)

​

  • We do offer a 21 day window of complete cancellation on made to order items.  However, unfortunately we cannot offer you a refund or exchange on these items after the 21 day window.*

  • Custom fabricated, made to order items: (bumpers, rack systems, swing-out bumpers, etc..) after the 21 day cancellation window are NON REFUNDABLE.  In some cases, such as total loss of a vehicle, we may commit to an exchange of product for another vehicle of the same but of a different year, make, or model.  i.e. you total out your '04 Xterra and purchase a new '22 Nissan Frontier.  An exchange for equal store credit may also be offered.

  • Custom fabricated, made to order items: (bumpers, rack systems, swing-out bumpers, etc..) outside of the 21 day cancellation window that CANNOT be manufactured because a manufacturer has exited the industry, closed their doors, refuses the order, those orders WILL BE completely REFUNDED in full.  In the case where a manufacturer cannot produce a product due to exiting the industry, understand we may not receive your funds back right away, many times those funds may come out of us, after a 14 day period after the confirmation that those funds are lost to a supplier and we take responsibility for said refund.

  • There are lead times associated with these items, we also understand that many  of our patrons and newer customers have trips and events planned in advance that they hope to have product in time for and we do our best to to orchestrate and/or meet timelines whenever possible but we cannot guarantee delivery dates at this time.

  • Lead times are given to us by the manufactures and are approximate only at this time.  There are times where some orders may be completed/shipped earlier than quoted as much as the possibilities some other orders may be a little longer and could be out of our immediate control. ALL Orders WILL BE SHIPPED unless notified otherwise.

  • All customer made to order items including but not limited to; bumpers, sliders, skid-plates, tire carriers, hidden winches, custom leaf/coil rated springs, coilovers, or anything custom powder coated carries a 25% "cancellation" fee regardless if the item has been packaged, built, or shipped!  This includes all Rocky Road Outfitters, Demello, Hefty Fab, P&P Engineering, Alcan Spring, Deaver Springs, Warn Bumpers, Radflo, King Shocks, Shrockworks, CBI, Fox custom shocks, Heps Designs, or CoverKing, et al products.  WE DO NOT CONTROL THE INVENTORY OF OTHER COMPANIES, therefore, we don't always know when products will be available to complete orders

  • We try to get shipping quotes on these items as quickly as possible, some items are faster than others, many of these items are truck freighted by freight companies

  • Please do not send your purchase back to the manufacturer, they will not credit you or refund the order(s)

  • If you are unsure of your purchase, please, do not order if you're likely to change your mind easily or have commitment concerns

  • Merchant services, PayPal, and the like have recently again changed their TOS (Terms Of Service) to include penalties for an increase in returns/refunds and passing them onto the business itself taking the loss of a sale beyond just that.  It is no longer a matter of refund a sale, and make up for the loss, we are actually being penalized for a return, disputed or not

  • By clicking the confirm order button, you are authorizing the total amount of money due to be billed to your credit card or PayPal account
