How to process a return
Effective Date: December 9, 2026
- General Policy & Eligibility
We stand by our craftsmanship and offer a straightforward 30-day window for returns and exchanges, starting from the date your order is delivered.
- Where This Applies: This policy applies exclusively to purchases made directly from fobus.com (B2C). All policies apply to U.S. customers unless otherwise noted.
- Third-Party Purchases: For items bought from authorized dealers or third-party retailers, all returns, exchanges, and initial warranty claims must be handled through the original seller.
- Item Condition: General returns and exchanges must be unused, in original condition with tags attached, and free of custom modifications (e.g., no alterations, engravings, or wear).
- Non-Returnable Items: Personalized items, clearance products, final-sale items, modified products, and products purchased from unauthorized sellers are ineligible for return.
- Defective, Damaged, or Incorrect Items
If you receive a product that is damaged, defective, or incorrect, we want to make it right.
- Contact us within 30 days of receipt.
- We will cover the return shipping costs (providing a prepaid label when applicable).
- You will receive a full replacement, repair, or refund at no additional cost.
- Step-by-Step Return & Exchange Process
Fobus operates from two warehouse locations. To avoid delays, do not ship your return until you have been provided a Return Authorization (RA) number and a specific warehouse address.
- Initiate Your Request: Email support@fobus.com within 30 days of delivery. Include your order number, name, shipping address, reason for return, and photos of any issues for quick verification.
- Get Authorized: Wait for our support team to approve your request and provide you with an RA number and the correct return shipping address.
- Pack Securely: Pack the item securely in its original packaging with all accessories. Attach the RA label (if provided) and include a note with your contact info and instructions (refund or exchange).
Fees, Shipping, and Timelines.
- Fees, Shipping, & Timelines
- Shipping Costs: Original shipping is non-refundable. You are responsible for return shipping costs unless the item is defective or damaged.
- Restocking Fee: A 20% restocking fee applies to non-defective returns/exchanges. This fee is waived for defects, items returned within 14 days of the ship date, or for exchange-only requests.
- Cancellation Fee: If you cancel an order after it has shipped, a 15% cancellation fee applies once returned, plus the cost of return shipping.
- Exchange Perks: Exchanges are processed as new orders. If you upgrade to a premium model during an exchange, you receive 10% off.
- Processing Time: Refunds and exchanges are processed within 3-5 business days of receipt at our warehouse (7-10 days during high-volume holiday periods).
- Refund Issuance: Refunds take 3-7 business days to reflect on your original payment method. If unavailable, we will issue Fobus store credit. New exchange items ship within 2-3 business days of approval.
