Strong AS AUSTRALIA Return Policy

1. PREAMBLE

Strong AS Australia is dedicated to customer satisfaction and we will do everything in our power to assist you should something have gone wrong with your order.

However unfortunately, due to the customised nature of the products sold by Strong AS Australia, we CANNOT offer a refund or return for any items manufactured to suit your specifications such as colour, size and length. We are also unable to offer a refund if you have made a mistake with your order or changed your mind. It is at the customer's own risk and responsibility that the correct product, colours, sizes and quantities are ordered before checkout. Please ensure to double-check your order prior to processing payment.

It is the responsibility of the Customer to inspect the goods prior to use. If a product is found to be defective, please ensure to notify us immediately (within 48 hours) at service@strong-as.com with information and photos and we will instruct you with further information to return the product.
