What is Filmgear Canada's return policy?

Filmgear Canada has a 14-day return policy: you have 14 days after receiving your item to request a return, and the item must be unused, unopened and in its original packaging with proof of purchase. Opened or used items may be subject to a minimum 15% restocking fee, the cost of return shipping is deducted from the refund, and Special Order items, open box and demo units, and clearance items are final sale. To start a return, email info@filmgearcanada.com. If a regular item (not a Special Order, open-box, or demo item) is defective within 14 days of delivery, email info@filmgearcanada.com with a short video of the problem and the serial number, or bring it to our showroom. Once we confirm the defect, we’ll replace it (or refund it if a replacement isn’t available) and handle the manufacturer claim ourselves. For Special Order items, damage or defect claims must be reported immediately upon delivery and will be handled in accordance with the manufacturer’s warranty terms.

Does Filmgear Canada offer financing?
