Product Returns:
All goods are sold without return privileges except where the product is determined to be damaged in manufacturing or transit, or shipped by General in error.

Prior to returning any product to General, please be certain to read the following guidelines in order to expedite the return process:
  1. Obtain an RMA number from our customer service department (see contact information below).  Please have your invoice available when you call.
  2. When returning tools and electronics which show manufacturing damages, please include a memo listing your contact information, RMA number and a description of the problem with the tool.
  3. The return must be made within the allotted return time period of 14 days after the shipment date.
  4. Returned items must include all accessories that were originally shipped.  Items also must be in a re-saleable condition, otherwise credit is at our discretion.
