8. What is a "CORE" Charge?

A CORE Deposit is usually added to a rebuilt or re-manufactured product. This Deposit is generally added to Alternators, Starters, Power Steering pumps, Driveshafts etc. The respective rebuilders ADD this charge to insure that they receive the part back to continue the process of rebuilding it.  We ADD the core charge to products so designated on our catalog. It works like this.............We send you the part and ADD the CORE Deposit to your bill. You install the part remembering to keep the original box it came in... (VERY IMPORTANT) Then you "Return" the Core after receiving a CORE

RETURN AUTHORIZATION by calling our Toll Free 800 #. Always have your purchase date and original invoice number ready when calling. You then

Return the CORE at your expense to the address we provide you. When the CORE "Clears" the rebuilder and is accepted as REBUILDABLE they credit us, and we in turn credit your credit card. The FINAL arbiter of rebuild ability and refund of CORE Deposit rests with the rebuilder. Distributor Demo assumes no liability in regard to decisions made by rebuilders.  There decisions are FINAL. If the part you return is NOT acceptable to rebuilder as "rebuild able" there is NO Return of deposit. There is a 45 day Time limit on CORE returns. No refunds after 45 days.

9. What happens if I simply decide I do not want the parts I ordered?

No Problem. We request such returns be made within 7 days of receipt.  Because we sell parts at "wholesale" prices WE MUST CHARGE A 15%

"Re-Stocking" fee on these returns, plus you are responsible for freight both ways. We will issue a refund to the credit card you used, or issue

Store Credit for future purchases. Parts must be UNUSED, not installed for "Testing" purposes and be in original Factory Carton. NO RETURNS for any reason on Electrical Components or SPECIAL ORDER items.
