Refund policy

Products without a valid Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) provided by our technical support team clearly indicated in permanent marker on all sides and all parcels of the shipment will be refused upon receipt and returned to sender.

LESS THAN 30 DAYS

During the first 30-days from the order date of the product(s) in question, the purchaser may return all items identified as standard merchandise. Any products not defined within the standard merchandise agreement are not eligible for return and no credit will be issued.

To initiate a standard merchandise return, please email support@chriscoffee.com and sign the Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) agreement. After the RMA Agreement has been signed and returned to the agent of Chris’ Coffee Service, follow the “shipping my repair or return” procedure. Adherence to all procedures in the RMA Agreement and shipping procedures is integral to your return arriving in the same condition as it was sent in.

Please note that if you receive a machine or grinder and you experience issues within it within the first 30 days, we will cover the cost of shipping both directions to get it back, fix it, and send it back. The warranty does not cover sending out a brand new machine and/or grinder in these scenarios. If you wish to return the merchandise for a refund, regardless of whether or not it's working as intended, you will be responsible for shipping costs both directions. 

If a machine or grinder was purchased through a distributor of ours, and you have any questions or concerns regarding their return policy, you will need to contact the company in which you purchased the machine or grinder from for more information regarding their terms and conditions.

Items outside of the standard merchandise definition are not eligible for return. Items that could be considered non-standard and are not eligible for return include, but are not limited to, items contained within the following categories: commercial espresso, clearance, accessories, electrical parts, coffee brewers, or coffee. No food product can be returned back to us for any reason.

If you have questions regarding parts and accessories for compatibility or if they would be a solution to your product(s) please call or email our technical support team prior to purchase.

OPEN BOX

One exception does apply: the return period is 15-days from order date unless otherwise specified in writing at the time of purchase with a Chris’ Coffee Service representative.

PURCHASES, REFUNDS & CREDITS

If orders are canceled at any time after payment has been received, you are subject to a 5% restocking/cancelation fee.

If a price adjustment, or offer match, is requested there will also be a 5% fee. No promotion can be applied retroactively.

Your refund will be issued as soon as possible after the item is received, but could take up to 5-7 business days to be completed.

You will have 2 options regarding the type of credit you would like to receive if you're returning a part or accessory.

1. A refund to your original payment less a 20% restocking fee.

2. A store credit for the full amount of the product, which will be emailed to you in the form of a gift card within 7 days of receiving the item back.

SHIPPING COSTS

Chris’ Coffee Service will not provide any credit or refund for costs associated shipping. You will be responsible for the shipping costs to get any part, accessory, machine or grinder back to us if it's being returned as a buyers remorse. 

PRE-ORDERS

For product(s) marked with a “pre-order”, the purchasers payment method will be authorized and captured for the full amount within 1-2 days of receiving the order. This authorization locks in the deal at the time of purchase and reserves the product(s) associated with the order. If you request to cancel an order at any time after the payment has been captured, for any reason, you will be charged a 5% credit card / cancelation fee. 

STANDARD MERCHANDISE

Product(s) contained within the standard merchandise agreement within 30-days of the order date will be refunded the amount less the original shipping cost (incurred by Chris’ Coffee Service) of the product(s) being returned. Refunds are processed in the order in which they are received. After the product(s) have been received by our shipping department a credit will be applied to the original payment method within 10 business days upon receipt.

BUNDLES

Bundles are defined as purchases made with greater than one product contained on the order with a product code containing DOTW. Bundle pricing is contingent upon the total package being present. If 100% of the product(s) contained within a bundle are requested within an RMA, credit will be processed as if it were standard merchandise. After the product(s) have been received by our shipping department, a credit will be applied to the original payment method within 10 business days upon receipt.

If less than 100% of the product(s) contained within a bundle are requested within an RMA the credit processed will be less the M.A.P. pricing of all items contained within the RMA and initial shipping costs. i.e, Product(1) 2500 (M.A.P.), Product(2) 600 (M.A.P.), -300 discount for bundle, 2800 total. Purchaser wishes to return Product(1). The credited amount would be the 2800 paid minus the MAP price of the retained item Product(2) and shipping, in this example, 100. In this case 2100 would be credited.

MISC.

If you receive an incorrect part from an order placed online, and we ship you out the correct part free of charge with a pre-paid UPS or USPS return label, you are responsible for shipping the incorrect part back to us within 14 days. If we do not receive it back within that timeframe you will be charged the full price of the incorrect item you received.
