      2. Products identified as “New” are new from the factory and have only been operated to the extent required to perform a thorough test and prepare them for shipment.

b) All returns are subject to the Return Policy found in Section 6 of this document. Please read the Return Policy before initiating a return.
 
2. Pre-Shipment Verification
a) It is the Customer’s responsibility to review their order, become familiar with the product specifications and make sure the product purchased is appropriate for your circumstances and use.

b) The act of confirming your purchase at the time of payment indicates you have reviewed and understand the following:

      1. The product’s specifications, features, intended use and limitations.
      2. The Terms of Sale.
      3. The Terms of the Limited Warranty.
      4. The definitions of “wear and tear”, “manufacturing defect” and Customer’s responsibility to maintain and service the product.
      5. You have a means to maintain the product, perform routine service as per the Owner’s Manual and when required, transport the product to an authorized service center.
      6. There are options for extended warranty coverage available that can offset some service and warranty costs.
c) Additionally, for products with significant size or technical complexity, GXi Customer Service Team may contact the Customer after the order is placed to confirm the Customer is aware of product features, warranty process and routine maintenance requirements. In addition, GXi may confirm:

      1. The shipping and receiving process outlined in Section 3.
      2. Shipment details such as address and available receiving facilities and shipping alternatives.
d) In the event the Customer is not prepared to receive, store, operate or service the product, or the selected product is not suitable for the Customer’s circumstances, either GXi or the Customer may choose to cancel the order. See section 5, Order Cancellation Policy.

3. Shipping Policy
 
a) GXi makes every effort to ship your product as quickly as possible. During peak periods this process may take several days and in rare occasions there may be back orders that cause longer delays.

b) In the event your shipping address is designated as a “remote” or “extended” delivery location by the trucking companies, GXi may require you to identify an alternative shipping address that is less remote and not subject to these additional charges, or, pay an additional $500 remote location shipping surcharge to GXi prior to shipment.

c) Upon shipment from GXi’s location, responsibility for the condition of the product is transferred to the shipping company.

    1. The shipping company signs the Bill of Lading, indicating the product was in good condition when it was picked up at GXi Outdoor Power, LLC.
    2. Upon delivery, the shipping company will ask you to also sign the Bill of Lading or similar document. Your signature indicates that you accept the product in the condition it was delivered, and you relieve the shipping company of any responsibility for damage or loss. You assume responsibility for any damage reported after delivery unless otherwise noted.
    3. If you have any questions or concerns or are refusing delivery or have uncovered any shipping damage whatsoever, immediately call GXi Customer Service at 919-550-3221.
    4. It is your responsibility to inspect your product at the time of delivery and confirm you are satisfied with its condition. Remove all packaging and perform a detailed inspection. Trucking companies will allow up to 15 minutes for you to do this before you sign the Bill of Lading.
    5. It is your responsibility to note any / all damage you identify or suspect on the Bill of Lading and show your concern to the driver. He should initial your notes, indicating that he agrees with you.
    6. It is your responsibility to reject the shipment and have it returned to GXi if damage is identified or the trucking company attempts to deliver the product outside its original packaging or off its pallet or crate.
    7. If accepting the freight but you are concerned there may be damage, retain a copy of the Bill of Lading with your signature and any notes of the suspected damage and the driver’s initials or signature. Take photos of any suspected damage. Ask the driver to stand in the photo as well. Have the driver point at the damage in the photo. This expedites resolution of any potential freight insurance claims.
    8. Failure to follow these steps will result in the trucking company and GXi assuming any and all damage reported after delivery occurred at your premises and was not a result of shipping or handling. You will be required to accept the product “as is”.
    9. If you reject receiving a shipment without cause, you are required to pay the freight charges to and from the shipping point plus a 35% restocking charge. This amount will be deducted from any refund you may be entitled to.
    10. If the product was shipped via a parcel service and no signature was required upon delivery, you must report any damage or discrepancy within 2 business days of the delivery. Failure to report any damage or discrepancy after the second business day results in the shipping company assuming the loss or damage occurred at your premises and it is no longer their responsibility. You will be required to accept the product “as is”.
    11. If there was no external indication of damage to the packaging or product and you subsequently suspect there was concealed damage that was undetectable at the time of delivery, contact GXi Customer Service immediately and report your concerns. If you report the concern after 2 business days, it is assumed the damage was caused at your premises.
    12. Keep all packaging for 30 days to re-use in the event you wish to return your product to GXi. See section 6 for Return Policy.
d) Customers may pick up your purchase from a GXi location if an appointment is arranged in advance with a representative of GXi.

      1. The GXi representative and you will review and operate the product together and follow the customer pick-up checklist prior to your acceptance. The checklist will be signed by you and a representative of GXi, confirming you are receiving the product in acceptable condition and you are satisfied with your purchase.
