Products returned as damaged or faulty (within 14 days of purchase)
NB: For faulty Sony or Pioneer products we must be informed within 7 days rather than 14.
Any product returned as faulty within the first 14 days of purchase must be assessed by the manufacturer to confirm that it is faulty. This process can take up to 72 hours from collection of the product. Once a fault is confirmed then we will be happy to offer a full refund or replacement of the product. For all UK mainland orders collection and replacement costs will be met in full by 1staudiovisual. For items delivered outside mainland UK the customer will be liable for any collection or redelivery costs.
All original packaging must be retained for returns/refund/warranty purposes. If you wish 1staudiovisual to replace or refund faulty goods you are STRONGLY RECOMMENDED to have kept all the original packaging and accessories. If your goods go faulty within 14 days and you have not kept the packaging you will be required to purchase sufficient new packaging so that the goods can be safely retuned, and may be liable in cases where goods are returned damaged and improperly packed. If you dispose of the packaging then it will be your responsibility to source alternative adequate packaging to use to return the item.
Damaged in transit.
Our insurance policies require notification within 48 hours and Photos to enable us to make a claim for damage caused to a package in transit. If you receive an item that is damaged and wish to receive a replacement please email photos of both the damaged item and the packaging, together with your claim so we may process it promptly.
Products returned as faulty (after 14 days of purchase)
If any of your purchases develop a fault and it's more than 14 calendar days since receipt, then provided your item is within its warranty period, you are entitled to a warranty repair.
