"Total Satisfaction" Return Policy (U.S. Only)

We value our relationship with you and want to make sure that you're satisfied with your purchases. That's why we offer a "Total Satisfaction" return policy for most products that you— the end-user customer—purchase directly from Dell. Under this policy, you may return to Dell products that you purchased directly from Dell for a credit or a refund of the purchase price paid, less shipping and handling and applicable restocking fees as follows:

•New Hardware Products and Accessories — All new hardware, accessories, parts, and unopened software still in its sealed package, excluding the products listed below, may be returned within 30 days from the date on the packing slip or invoice. To return applications software or an operating system that has been installed by Dell, you must return the entire computer. A different return policy applies to nondefective products purchased through Dell's Software and Peripherals division by customers of our Small and Medium Business divisions. Those products may be returned within 30 days from the date on the packing slip or invoice, but a fifteen percent (15%) restocking fee will be deducted from any refund or credit. The "Total Satisfaction" Return Policy and Software and Peripherals division return policy are not available for Dell EMC storage products, EMC-branded products, or enterprise software.

•Reconditioned or Refurbished Dell-Branded Hardware Products and Parts — All reconditioned or refurbished Dell-branded server and storage products may be returned within 30 days from the date on the packing slip or invoice. All other reconditioned or refurbished Dell-branded hardware products and parts may be returned within 14 days of the date on the packing slip or invoice.

To return products, e-mail or call Dell customer service to receive a Credit Return Authorization Number within the return policy period applicable to the product you want to return. You must obtain a Credit Return Authorization Number in order to return the product. See "Contacting Dell" or "Getting Help" in your customer documentation (or www.dell.com/us/en/gen/contact.htm) to find the appropriate contact information for obtaining customer assistance.

You must ship the products to Dell within 5 days of the date that Dell issues the Credit Return Authorization Number. You must also return the products to Dell in their original packaging, in as-new condition along with any media, documentation, and all other items that were included in the original shipment, prepay shipping charges, and insure the shipment or accept the risk of loss or damage during shipment.
