Politique de remboursement

I. 60-Day Returns

We want you to love your gear. If you're not completely satisfied with your purchase, you may request a return within 60 days of delivery.

To be eligible for a refund, returned items must be in saleable condition and include all original packaging, manuals, accessories, and components.

All returns require prior written authorization from Ploutone. Please contact info@ploutone.com before returning any item.

Refusal of delivery is not considered a valid return. Customers must accept delivery and contact us to arrange a return.

A. Items Subject to Additional Conditions

Certain items, including hardware and pickguards, must meet the following requirements to qualify for a refund:

Protective films must remain intact and unremoved.
Items must show no signs of installation, use, modification, soldering, scratches, or mounting marks.
Original packaging must be included.

Non-defective returns of certain products, including guitars, hardware, and pickguards, may be subject to a restocking fee of up to 25% of the purchase price, not to exceed $25.

Important Note: Filing a payment dispute or chargeback before a return is authorized or the 7-day inspection period is complete freezes our ability to process manual refunds. We strive to respond to all inquiries within 2 business days.

II. Damaged, Defective, or Failed Products

If your item arrives damaged, defective, or fails during normal use within 60 days of delivery, contact us at info@ploutone.com.

Please include your order number, a description of the issue, and photographs whenever possible.

Approved claims may be resolved through a replacement, repair, store credit, or refund at Ploutone's discretion.

III. Custom Orders

Custom orders are final sale and are not eligible for return, refund, or exchange.

IV. Navidium Shipping Protection

A. Lost, Damaged, or Stolen Shipments

Navidium Shipping Protection covers shipments that are lost, damaged, or stolen during transit worldwide.

If a protected shipment is lost, damaged, or stolen, Ploutone will provide an expedited replacement at no additional shipping cost. If a replacement is unavailable, a full refund for the affected item will be issued.

Claims for lost or missing packages must be submitted within 30 days of the last tracking update or delivery date. Claims for damaged shipments must be submitted within 5 days of delivery and include photographs of the product and packaging.

B. Exchange Benefits

Navidium Shipping Protection is primarily intended to protect shipments during transit. As an added benefit, certain orders may qualify for exchange shipping assistance.

Domestic Standard-Sized Items: One complimentary exchange for a different size, color, or item. For an approved exchange, Ploutone will provide a prepaid return label for the original item and cover the shipping cost to send the replacement item. Navidium covers the applicable shipping costs, but it does not cover any difference in the merchandise price between the original item and the replacement item.
Price Differences: If the replacement item costs more than the original item, the customer must pay the difference before the replacement is shipped. For example, exchanging a $29.99 black pickguard for a $36.99 blue pearl pickguard would require payment of the $7.00 difference. If the replacement item costs less than the original item, the customer will receive a credit or partial refund for the difference, subject to any applicable restocking fee or other deduction under this policy.
Oversized Items: Guitars, amplifiers, speaker cabinets, and other oversized products are not eligible for complimentary exchange shipping. Customers are responsible for all exchange shipping costs, as well as any difference in merchandise price between the original item and the replacement item.
International Orders: Customers are responsible for all shipping costs associated with preference-based exchanges, including return shipping and shipment of the replacement item. Customers are also responsible for any difference in merchandise price between the original item and the replacement item. If the replacement item costs less, the customer will receive a credit or partial refund for the difference, subject to any applicable restocking fee or other deduction under this policy.

C. Exclusions

Navidium Shipping Protection does not cover:

Shipping delays where the package is not lost.
Incorrect or incomplete addresses provided by the customer.
Packages held by customs.
Orders returned to sender due to customer error.
Import duties, taxes, or customs fees.
