•    All products received go through individual visual inspection to ensure the products are genuine Antelope Audio products with all applicable labels intact and free of physical damage/abuse, which could affect the product being returned;

•    We also confirm the RMA#, which should be noted on the outside of the package;

 

! Packages with damage or that do not have a valid, unique RMA# clearly marked on the exterior or with missing accessories will be returned to the sender at the sender’s expense;
