A unit shipped to WolfVision for any reason will not be accepted unless an RMA number has been issued.
An RMA number is received after contacting WolfVision Technical Support and filling out the online RMA Completion Form (see RMA Instructions). If the RMA process is initiated but the form is not completed and/or the unit not shipped within 30 days, the potential RMA will be canceled. Shipping instructions are given upon completion of the form.
The RMA number should be included on the label of the shipped unit and referenced in any communications.
The proper packaging of units is essential for safe shipment. Please refer to the section on Packaging Instructions.
Below are specific considerations for each type of return scenario:
Before a unit is returned for repair, the following steps must be completed:
There may or may not be charges for the repair, depending upon the warranty status of the unit (See Repair Charges, below). If there are charges, an invoice will be sent via email. Those charges must be paid before the repaired unit is returned to the customer.
When the Repaired Unit's invoice is paid and the Repair issue is closed, an email notification is sent to the customer with tracking information for the shipped unit.
A unit under warranty will be repaired free-of-charge. WolfVision units have basic warranties of 3 years. As of January, 2010, WolfVision has instigated a program where end-users of the units may register with WolfVision and consequently receive an upgrade to 5 years of warranty. (See the Product Registration page.)
The customer is responsible for shipping the unit to WolfVision at their own cost. (Please follow the Packaging Instructions.)
Newly-purchased units that arrive to the customer in a non-functional status are eligible for replacement with another unit.
At the discretion of WolfVision and under special circumstances, less-recently-purchased units in need of repair may be eligible for exchange with another unit.
