Warranty

Warranty Period

All quality-related defects on items sold directly by Reinkstone are covered by an extensive 1-year warranty, starting from the date of purchase.

Within 7 days from the date of purchase, it can be refund due to product quality problems; within 30 days, it can be exchanged due to product quality problems; free warranty service is available during the warranty period, and the warranty period is 12 months.

For quality-related warranty claims, items will be replaced with a factory refurbished model of equal value when available. Otherwise, a new item will be sent. In situations where a replacement is not an available or preferred option, Reinkstone will offer a partial refund according to the device's usage time.

Warranties on all replacements follow the same warranty time frame of the original defective item. Warranties on products are void after having been fully refunded.

Warranty claims for product defects expire 1 year after opening a warranty claim. It is impossible to process a warranty claim for items that have passed their original warranty time frame or a 1-year warranty claim request period, whichever is longer.

When returning items for non-quality issues, the buyer assumes responsibility for any damage or loss incurred in transit. Reinkstone does not provide refunds for items damaged in transit for non-quality-related warranty claims.
