Return/Refund Policies
No returns after 10 days from ORDER DATE.
20% Minimum restocking fee is applicable on all returns
or exchanges.
All satellite dishes purchased through this site are non-refundable.
We will only replace defective parts. The reason for this
is we only want to retail "new" product to our
customers and we do not want any opened item stock. There
will be no refunds on satellite dishes. If the dish is
sent back to our warehouse, it will be considered abandoned
property. We do not accept these items back and will not
pay for return shipping on them being shipped back. If
you request an RMA on a package, the RMA is only valid
for the package equipment and not the Satellite dishes.
Please be advised that we will not tolerate charge-backs
on items that are not returned to our warehouse. Dishes
will not be accepted back, but this does not mean that
the rest of the package should not be returned if we have
provided an RMA to you.
If you cancel an order before it is shipped, you will
be charged an unrecoverable merchant fee for the cancellation.
Normally this is a 4% non-refundable credit card fee,
plus $5.00 refund transaction fee. This can change based
on customer's original order. These merchant fees are
not refunded to our company by the credit card processor
under your cancellation and Satmaniacs will not be responsible
for these fees should you change your mind. These fees
are applicable to products that have been placed as "Prepay
Only" or "Backordered" should you change
your mind on the order. You will see a detailed account
of these refund fees on your refund receipt sent to you
by the credit card processor to your email address. Should
you not receive this receipt you may submit a request
that this information to be resent.
If there is a problem with your order and we have attempted
to contact you with no response for 3 or more business
days, your order will be refunded as per our refund policies
posted on this site.
