See complete Return Policy below.
The vast majority of the items we sell may be returned within 15 days of purchase, however some items are not returnable. Items which are custom-ordered, or custom-made to order, may not be returned.
In nearly all cases there are no additional fees (re-stock fees) when you return your merchandise to San Cedar Direct. Shipping charges may apply. Unless we made an error, or the product is defective, you are responsible for the cost of shipping your merchandise back to us. Of course shipping charges don’t exist if you bring your return to one of our locations.
We strive to make our return process easy and efficient. You have three easy ways to return your merchandise to us:
Only if you are shipping your items back to us. In that case, in order to process your return efficiently and issue your refund quickly, we will want to be ready on our end when your material comes back. Another reason for setting up a Return Authorization (RA) is to allow us to help make the whole return process as easy for you as possible.
When you contact us to arrange for a Return Authorization we will provide you with convenient, easy to follow packing and shipping instructions.
Most of the items we offer on our web site are "regular stock" items. Regular stock items can be returned without fee or restriction (subject to the conditions below).
Regular stock items are either items that we keep in regular stock at one of our retail yards, or items that are kept in regular stock at our distribution. Cut materials, tinted paint and stain merchandise are not returnable.
Customized ItemsSome of the items we sell are custom cut, or made-to-order. When selling a customized item we make it clear to you that the items you are buying may not be returned for any reason.
There is an important exception to this: if San Cedar Direct made a mistake when making your customized merchandise, and it turns out to be not appropriate for your use, we will do what it takes to rectify the situation. Note that certain details apply to our policy regarding custom orders. We will review these in detail with you as we go through the ordering process.
