Product Warranty

Unless otherwise stated in writing upon purchase of a product from PRIOLITE.US, all goods are checked before they are sent out. In the unlikely event that goods are faulty, they must be returned to PRIOLITE.US within the applicable warranty period. Strobes and other lights include a limited extended 2 year warranty, all other items (flash tubes etc.) are covered by a 90 day warranty. Access to extended warranty may require product registration. If a product is under warranty, PRIOLITE.US will, at its sole discretion, replace or repair the damage in accordance with the applicable warranty terms. If goods are found to be in working condition, and/or the warranty claim is based on failure to understand the technology and/or user error, goods will be returned to the user at their expense, and an additional $100 service charge will be assessed. If there is evidence that the product has been modified, or an effort to “fix” it has been made, all warranties, implied or otherwise, will be void. Return shipment is the responsibility of the customer and requires a RMA. RMA's expire 10 days after they are issued. You must visit the support section at PRIOLITE.US to obtain warranty service and/or a RMA.

Most items are shipped within 48 hrs, but some items may require backordering, customization, or additional processing. In the rare event that items are temporary unavailable, and if we expect to ship you order after 21 business days, PRIOLITE.US will notify you of any such delays within 21 business days after your order was placed. Orders cannot be canceled once they have shipped. Goods cannot be returned for any reason. If the item is defective or faulty within or after the warranty period has expired, you must follow the RMA procedure to receive service.
