    Return & Refund Policy

    We want you to be completely satisfied with your purchase. We've been helping farmers and equipment owners find the right manuals since 2005, and our return policy is built to be fair and straightforward.

    30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee

    • You have 30 days from the date your order ships to request a return or refund. No hoops, no hassle.

    What Qualifies for a Return

    • Printed Manuals — Unopened and in original shrink-wrap condition. If you received the wrong item or it arrived damaged, you get a full refund including original shipping.
    • Apparel & Merch (t-shirts, hoodies, crewnecks) — Unworn, unwashed, tags attached, in original packaging. Defective prints or wrong sizes qualify for a full refund or exchange.
    • Vinyl Stickers — Defective or damaged on arrival qualifies for a full refund or replacement.

    What Does NOT Qualify

    • Opened or used printed manuals. These are reproduction books — once opened, they can't be resold.
    • Merch that has been worn, washed, altered, or damaged after delivery.
    • Orders placed more than 30 days ago.
    • Custom or personalized items.

    How to Start a Return

    • Step 1: Email Sales@TheManualStore.com within 30 days with your order number and reason for the return.
    • Step 2: We'll reply with return authorization and shipping instructions.
    • Step 3: Ship the item back in its original condition. You cover return shipping unless the item was our mistake.
    • Step 4: Once we receive and inspect your return (usually 2–3 business days), we'll issue a refund to your original payment method.
    • Refunds are processed within 5–7 business days after we receive the item. Original shipping charges are non-refundable unless the return is due to our error.

    Damaged or Wrong Item?

    • We make it right — fast. Just email a quick photo and your order number to Sales@TheManualStore.com. We'll cover return shipping and send a replacement or full refund immediately.

    Good to Know

    • No restocking fees — ever.
    • International orders: 30-day window still applies. You're responsible for return shipping and any customs fees.
    • Merch quality guarantee: If a printed item has a defective print, we replace it at no cost to you.
