Delivery DatesAll shipping and delivery quotes are "approximate" lead times. We cannot fully guarantee delivery dates as we utilize the services of reputable independent freight companies and occasionally there may be brief transit delays, on rare occurrences misplaced merchandise or an occasional back order.
Damaged or Partly Missing ShipmentPlease be sure to note any damage or shortage on the delivery receipt. A shipment notification email is sent when your order has shipped with the tracking information and exact number of boxes included in your shipment. Title of goods passes to the purchaser when a shipment is accepted for transportation by the carrier. When you receive your order, you are indicating that all cartons shown on the receipt are present and in good condition. If this is not true, be sure to note the discrepancy and have the driver initial it. Failure to do so will limit your right to file a claim for damage or missing products to the carrier.
For items shipped already assembled, open all cartons immediately while the driver is present. Do not discard the cartons until you know the contents are in good condition. Please contact us immediately if the item is an assembled piece or if the damage involves a part that can't be replaced.
Occasionally, a product may be scratched or damaged during shipping. Customers should accept the product and note any visible damage to the freight delivery receipt. Since parts are interchangeable, The Fitness Outlet will replace any damaged part with a factory original new part when freight delivery receipt is properly noted. Customer should adhere to freight carriers’ freight claim protocol and cooperate with such policies to facilitate the processing of the claim.
Should labor be required to change a part, customer will receive FREE in-home service.
If physical product damage is not seen until opening the carton, customer should contact freight carrier immediately within 48 hours, and request a "concealed freight damage inspection." All items should be taken out of the boxed and inspected within 5 days of receipt to verify there is no concealed damage. Failure to notify the carrier within 5 days of receipt will cause the carrier to deny your claim.
If a customer relocates a product to a different location than the delivery address on the bill of lading, prior to a "concealed freight damage inspection," the freight company will not accept responsibility for freight damage and customer shall nullify their rights to a freight damage claim. If customer refuses delivery due to excessive freight damage, The Fitness Outlet shall have the right to re-ship the identical product at no additional cost to customer, using the same or a different carrier at The Fitness Outlet’s discretion.
On rare instances, wrong items may be shipped unintentionally, as a courtesy; we agree to re-ship the correct item at no cost to customer. Customers agree to abide by such terms.
Undeliverable, Non-Response or Refused ShipmentsCompleted shipments (shipments that have left our warehouse) that are undeliverable or refused will be charged a restocking fee of 20% of the actual purchase price plus the cost of shipping to and from the ship-to address.
Storage Fees: In addition, storage fees will be charged for product that is not delivered due to unavailability to receive the product or to respond within 5 days to shipping carriers notification to schedule a delivery appointment.

Break-In IssuesOn very rare occasions, a product will require service adjustments upon receipt of the product or during the initial month(s) of ownership during the "break-in" period. The Fitness Outlet agrees to provide unlimited FREE in-home service for up to one full year to rectify any such service issues on ALL products that include a manufacturer's in-home labor warranty. If parts are required, The Fitness Outlet will ship replacement parts to customer FREE of charge.
Charge-BacksCustomers that file a chargeback with their credit card company have in essence filed a dispute and therefore started a process which can be lengthy, so you will need to be patient. It typically takes 30 days for the merchant processor to process the chargeback and it may take your credit card company up to 75 days to resolve a chargeback and come to a final decision.
For an expedited return process, it is much quicker to have The Fitness Outlet process the refund. This process normally takes 24-28 hours from the time we have confirmation that the products have arrived at our return center in like-new condition.
Sales TaxSome states are subject to local sales tax including California and Washington residents. International customers may be subject to taxes payable to your own country upon receiving the package, but we do not collect or know what the amount of these taxes are. Check with your country's tax authority.
