All special-order items, not in our stock, require a 50% deposit to start production. The remaining balance in addition to shipping is due prior to delivery.
What is the order cancellation policy?
If you cancel your special order a 25% restocking fee is required. However, in the spirit of customer service and building strong relationships, we listen and treat each situation individually prior to making our decision.
What should I do if I receive damaged goods?
All goods should be inspected immediately upon receipt. If there are any damages, a note must be made on the signed bill of lading. A signed BOL noting all goods have been received in good condition releases Schwung from any liability of damaged items. Damages should be reported within 24 hours of delivery date and should be documented with photos with a completed claim form that can be requested by emailing sales@schwung.design.
What is Schwung’s return policy?
All “one of a kind” sales are final – AS IS. No exchanges, returns or refunds. No returns will be accepted on manufactured products without a written return authorization from Schwung. This is handled on a case by case basis. All items must be received in our facility in good condition before a refund will be given.
