Returns
Please obtain a Return Goods Authorization (RGA) number before any merchandise is returned so that we can expedite your product. Payments to Texton should not be withheld if awaiting adjustments for a claim. On manufacturing and order entry errors, Texton reserves the right to have a product returned for repair or remake. All remakes are entered at normal charge. Credits will be issued upon return and verification. Upon inspection, if credit is denied, you will be notified and can decide whether or not you want the product back.
COD Shipments
Note: In order to speed delivery times on distributed products, and to avoid additional freight charges (Texton pays one leg of shipment only), please make full payment in advance so order can be shipped directly to you.
