DAMAGED/DEFECTIVE MERCHANDISE POLICY

This policy applies ONLY to purchases made directly through OBI�s Sales Office or Website.

LTL (PALLET SHIPPING)
When customers place an order that will be shipped LTL (less than truckload/pallet shipping) upon receiving the pallet from the trucking company the customer is responsible for checking the pallet for any indications of damage or mishandling during transit. This includes but is not limited to:
� Cuts
� Shredding
� Removal of shrink wrap that is surrounding the pallet or any of the boxes.
� Visible damage to boxes.
� Crushed merchandise

All visible damage or lack of shrink wrap MUST be written and documented on your delivery receipt BY THE INDIVIDUAL ACCEPTING THE MERCHANDISE. Failure to document this information on the delivery receipt WILL result in the denial of your claim and Opportunity Buys will not be responsible for any broken merchandise received from the shipment.* Always do a case count and make sure that the number of cases you should be receiving are being delivered. The case count can be found in the body of the delivery receipt.

When contacting OBI about damaged merchandise please take pictures of the damaged cases and merchandise and be ready to email those to our sales staff. Pictures save time and money for both the customer and OBI because it removes the necessity to ship merchandise back and forth. Email pictures and damage information to sales@obiimport.com.

Any damage, including factory/concealed damage MUST be reported within ten (10) business days (excluding weekends) of receiving merchandise. After this ten (10) day period OBI is not held liable for damaged merchandise and will not accept or file shipping claims.

OBI requires a minimum of 30 days to process a claim after it has been filed by the customer. This time is also required by freight companies for filing of the claim and processing/disputing of the claim. OBI sales representatives make every effort to work with its customers and freight companies to resolve claims.

After the claims process is completed, the customer will be notified via phone or email. All claims are issued in the form of an in store credit. If the customer wishes to have replacement merchandise shipped to them the customer is responsible for paying the shipping cost.

Tools, Toys, and Air-Soft guns have a strict no return/no credit policy. OBI will not accept returns, offer credit, or file any claims for these products.

PARCEL SHIPPING (UPS or DHL)

The policies for Parcel Shipping are the same as LTL.

In the situation that the customer does receive damaged merchandise from either LTL shipping or Parcel shipping and the customer is willing to attempt to repair the merchandise and resell it at a lower price OBI is willing to apply partial credits to the damaged merchandise. In this way no claim needs to be filed and the customer is still able to bring in a profit from the merchandise since the item will end up costing the customer less after the partial credit.

*Please remember that when fragile items such as oil warmers, candle warmers, and poly-resin are ordered in less than case quantities OBI employees filling the order check the individual pieces to ensure that no damaged merchandise is being shipped out of the OBI warehouse.

If you ever have a problem or question, please feel free to contact us. Thank you!
