What is covered by the Return Protection offered at checkout?
Outdoorplay partners with Redo to offer optional Return Protection coverage at checkout. When you place your order, you can opt into Free Returns during checkout for $2.98. If you think you may need to return or exchange any part of your order later, opting into this small fee up front will cover the cost of your return shipping label. (This is a great deal since our average return shipping label is about $12!)
If you choose not to opt into the Return Protection, you will be responsible for the cost of your return shipping label. The cost of return shipping is based on the weight and size of the product you will be returning.
Return Protection may not be available for all items, including very large items shipped using freight services, used or reboxed items, and eGift Cards. The cost of the Return Protection coverage is non-refundable. Outdoorplay reserves the right to discontinue or change the price of Return Protection at any time.
