Purchase Terms & Conditions
Purchases are subject to the following terms:
Physical Merchandise (read to the end for unique rules for special "battery" rules and the next section for "Gift Card" terms and conditions)
Broken or defective merchandise should be reported to us immediately upon receipt and returned for replacement or credit within 30 days of shipment.
Before returning any items, please first contact us (contact@dermatoscopes.com) to describe any such issues.
For all other returns (except batteries - see below), a full refund will be made for items returned (w/ return shipping paid by the buyer*) within 30 days of shipment that are in resellable condition**. This includes providing the original packaging, instructions and any other contents of the product as it arrived upon initial purchase.
As stated above, please first contact us to arrange any return prior to shipping the item(s) back.
Proper packaging of returned items must be used to prevent damage during shipment. We also recommend that you insure the package. Shipping charges to return merchandise to dermatoscopes.com are the buyer's responsibility (except in the case of defective merchandise received).

With the above policy in mind, just know that we want you to be 100% satisfied with your purchase and we will do our best to accommodate any reasonable return requests.
However, due to the nature of what we sell (dermatoscopes and accessories) and our relationship with the manufacturer (we are a Dermlite distributor), we recognize that every situation is unique. So above all, please first contact us if you're ever concerned about your purchase and feel the need to either return/exchange your purchase.
contact@dermatoscopes.com
*As stated on our website, we offer free shipping on all purchases. With the exception of replacing damaged/defective items, the buyer will be responsible for return shipping.
**We unfortunately need to place emphasis on the policy that full refunds are available for items in resellable condition. Signs of significant use (scratches, scuffs, etc.), missing items, damaged/missing boxes, etc. can affect your ability to receive a full refund.
Therefore, we respectfully ask that you please keep all of your "new box" items and handle your purchase with care until you absolutely know that you're happy with your purchase. Thank you!
Gift Cards
Dermatoscopes.com offers "virtual" gift cards (aka "e-gift cards). Recipients should treat their "virtual gift card" like cash (especially its unique gift code) as we cannot accept responsibility for unauthorized use. Gift cards are redeemable for purchases only at dermatoscopes.com. Except where required by state law, gift cards cannot be replaced if lost or stolen. Gift cards cannot be returned, refunded, or redeemed for cash. Purchases made using a gift card will be deducted from the card balance until its value reaches zero. Gift card recipients are asked to use their gift card in a timely manner, as any remaining balance (and the card itself) will be void after 5 years from initial date of purchase.
Repairs and Warranty Service
Repairs and service are performed by the Dermlite service center (a separate entity from dermatoscopes.com). A “Request for Repair” form is required to be completed prior to sending in your item for repair. Upon completing the above online form, Dermlite service and repair department will contact you with further details and instructions for completing the repair process.
