You may return items within 30 days of receipt, provided that the product is returned within its original shipping packaging, unopened, in its original condition, with the shrink-wrap intact. Returns for orders older than 30 days are not accepted. You will be responsible for the return shipping costs unless the item was delivered to you in error, or the item is damaged or defective.

If your order is returned to Bitmap Books’ offices, they will send it out again.
