- Inspect Your Merchandise shipped by a freight company:
When you receive an item that is shipped to you from a freight company, whether it is being delivered to your location or to a freight terminal, be sure to open the box or crate and inspect the merchandise before accepting and signing for delivery. We cannot be held responsible for any costs incurred to replace damaged merchandise that has been accepted and signed for. If you discover upon inspection that the merchandise is damaged, simply refuse to accept the delivery and we will replace that item at no additional cost to you once we receive the returned item from the freight carrier.

Where no error was made on our part, you must contact us at instoneinfo@yahoo.com. We will, at our discretion, issue a returned goods authorization number.
