Out-of-warranty service

Patton services what we sell, no matter how you acquired it, including malfunctioning products that are no longer under warranty. Our products have a flat fee for repairs. Units damaged by lightning or other catastro- phes may require replacement.

Returns for credit

Customer satisfaction is important to us, therefore any product may be returned with authorization within 30 days from the shipment date for a full credit of the purchase price. If you have ordered the wrong equipment or you are dissatisfied in any way, please contact us to request an RMA number to accept your return. Patton is not responsible for equipment returned without a Return Authorization.

Less than 30 days: No Charge. Your credit will be issued upon receipt and inspection of the equipment.

30 to 60 days: We will add a 20% restocking charge (crediting your account with 80% of the purchase price).

Over 60 days: Products will be accepted for repairs only.
