Buyer MUST retain all box and packing materials in order for us to file an insurance claim. Failure to retain packaging will void your right to receive insurance reimbursement or credit for shipping damages.

  • In the rare case that an item is defective upon arrival, buyer must contact High-End Audio Auctions within 4 business days or we cannot assume responsibility.
  • When an item is listed AS IS we do our best to describe the item, but cannot be held responsible for any issue with the item due to age or condition. Please review pictures and details carefully. Under no circumstances will we accept the return of an AS IS item.
