Our return policy is designed for customers who need it in good faith, which is the majority of you! Our regular customers should have nothing to worry about.
Elise Audio monitors the ratio of purchases versus returns, both in terms of quantity and of total value, whether through a single account or across multiple account. We will alert customers if we feel they are in danger of excessive returns. If the customer continues to return after the warning, we will begin charging at least 20% in restocking fees (depending on the condition of the returned item/s). If we feel the return ratio exceeds a certain threshold, we reserve the right to refuse customers from purchasing from us again.
Sales are FINAL on the following items:
Return labels will ONLY be supplied when a customer has received a defective product or a mistake was made by Elise Audio.
Please note your ability to return is voided if:
Elise Audio will not be held liable for incompatibility of DACs and amps with Android, iOS, or Windows operating systems. Here at Elise Audio, we simply cannot test every DAC and every amp with every operating system. It is the customer’s responsibility to contact the manufacturer regarding compatibility with their devices.
You MUST report a defective product within 14 business days of receiving the item. If we determine the unit failed under warranty within 14 days of purchase, we will cover shipping costs within the UK to replace the unit for you.
If you believe that you have received a defective product, contact us at eliseaudiouk@gmail.com or on our Discord Server ((here) ) anytime (to avoid our responses landing in your spam folder, we recommend adding eliseaudiouk@gmail.com to your contacts).
Products shipped internationally are still eligible for returns. Please note that any customs fees and taxes that were associated with your package may be non-refundable in the event of a return. International duties are only refundable at the discretion of the country receiving the package. Elise Audio has no control of these costs and therefore has no ability to refund them.
Please note International orders are not eligible for Prepaid return shipping, even if item is defective. Buyer must ship at there own expense.
Elise Audio won't be responsible for damage, defect, material difference, or loss that occurs to goods after they're delivered to a freight forwarder. This means that Elise Audio isn't able to provide a replacement or a refund for any shipment taken outside of the UK by hand-carrying or using a freight forwarding service.
In the event that a customer wishes to not pay the customs fees associated with their package, it will be returned to Elise Audio by their country. Any shipping costs will be on the burden of the customer. If the customer received free shipping, the shipping cost for both trips will be deducted from their refunded amount.
Please note: Some countries will require that customs be paid for even if the package never leaves customs. Refusal to pay customs fees in these countries, will result in the fees and any shipping costs to be deducted from your refunded amount. In the event that your fees exceed the purchase price, Elise Audio reserves the right to bill you for the difference.
