If your product arrived damaged, please contact the carrier that delivered your package(s) within 24 hours of receipt and report the damage. Toolots cannot accept responsibility for damage incurred after a customer has signed for delivered products.

Return Policy for Factory-Shipped Products:

Return policies vary and are determined by the seller, including timeframes in which a return is accepted. If you have concerns regarding the specific return policy for a product, please contact us directly to get more detailed information.

Typically, factory-shipped products must be unused or defective to be eligible for return or exchange (shipping fees may be assessed to the customer, depending on the manufacturer). Damage due to shipping is not common, but if it occurs, the manufacturer will follow their specific policy to resolve the situation, which can vary from service/repair, shipping of replacement parts, and/or discounts to keep the damaged products. Toolots provides reassurances to ensure customer satisfaction with their order, on top of the manufacturer’s policies.

Factory-shipped products may be subject to a restocking fee (this applies to most products, though the fee will vary between manufacturers).

Factory-shipped products require approval from the manufacturer and a Toolots Return Specialist and are not to be returned directly to Toolots. Returned factory-shipped products must be returned to the factory that sent them and require a Return Authorization from Toolots. Please contact us directly to receive complete a Return Authorization.

Refunds are for the cost of the product ONLY. Shipping will not be reimbursed, and return shipping will not be covered. It is the customer’s responsibility to palletize/crate, strap, wrap, and/or box their product(s) for return shipment and pay any associated fees.

Not returning all accessories or components, will result in a fee, to be determined by Toolots at their sole discretion, which shall be equal to the value of the missing components of the returned item, including without limitation, including liquids, such as oils and lubricants, fasteners, and bearings.  Customers must clean and/or remove materials used on returned products.  Toolots in its sole discretion may refuse to accept returned items that have not been cleaned by Customer prior to return, or charge a fee for cleaning and/or removal of materials that may have been used on or in the returned item. Fees for missing components and cleaning or removal of materials from returned items will be deducted from any refund due to customer.  When returning a product that may leak during transit, customers are responsible to ensure proper packaging and sealing to avoid any spill that may affect any other parts.


Once the product arrives at our warehouse, it will be inspected and weighed as part of our return procedure.  Products that have been modified, altered, tampered with, or misused in any way may result in refund denial.  Products that are claimed faulty during the return process and are found to be fully operational during our inspection may result in refund denial and may be sent back to the customer at customer's expense. (See Shipping & Handling Fees, below).

Shipping & Handling Fees

All products returned for a refund, where shipping is the responsibility of the customer, must be shipped by the customer via customer's preferred shipping method; however, Toolots can provide shipping services at the customer’s expense.

The delivery address must be accurate, and suitable for receiving packages from the carrier. In the event that a package is returned to us by the shipping carrier, re-shipment will proceed at your expense. If an unopened shipper-returned order is cancelled by you, a refund can be processed to the original form of payment, but shipping fees will be deducted from the order total. (See Shipping & Handling Fees, above.)

Refunds, repair, and replacements will occur within a timeframe to be determined by Toolots in its sole discretion.  Restocking fees will not apply to defective products returned within the14-day return period.
