CI Motorsports Return & Refund Policy
READ THIS FIRST
- Email [email protected] to start a return. Every request is reviewed manually. A response takes 1–3 business days.
- Reply with the order number, item SKU or part name, reason for the return, and whether you want a refund, an exchange, or store credit. Include clear photos of the item and the original manufacturer packaging, including the sealed box and labels.
- Do not ship until you have a written RMA number. Unauthorized returns are refused. After the RMA is issued, ship within 7 days and send us the tracking number.
- A chargeback is not a return. No refund until we receive and inspect eligible merchandise. We will contest disputes that skip this process.
FITMENT
It is up to the customer to determine if the part fits before placing the order. This covers powersports and automotive products.
If the part does not fit, the buyer pays return shipping. An exchange or store credit has no restocking fee. A refund to the original payment method in days 0–15 has a 10% restocking fee if the part is unopened, or a 20% restocking fee if the box was opened or the wrong part was ordered, plus a 3% processing fee (not charged on PayPal).
A prepaid return label is provided when the item received is a different part number than the one purchased, or the item is defective.
How Refunds Work
- Start within 30 days of delivery (carrier tracking date).
- Days 0–15: Refund to the original payment method. Unopened is a 10% restocking fee. An opened box, or the wrong part ordered, is a 20% restocking fee. Both include a 3% non-refundable processing fee (not charged on PayPal).
- Days 16–30: Store credit only. Restocking and the processing fee are waived.
- Return shipping is paid by the buyer when the item matches the part number purchased, including when it does not fit. Original outbound shipping is refunded when a different part number was sent, or the item is defective.
- Item received does not match the part number purchased: Full refund or exchange on the affected items. We cover reasonable shipping we approve in writing.
Fees
- Unopened / brand new, refund to the original payment method: 10% restocking fee plus a 3% non-refundable processing fee (not charged on PayPal).
- Opened box, or the wrong part was ordered, refund to the original payment method: 20% restocking fee plus a 3% non-refundable processing fee (not charged on PayPal).
- Exchange or store credit: no restocking fee, and no 3% processing fee.
- Cancel after the card is charged, before it ships: 3% cancellation fee. No fee on PayPal.
Want no restocking fee? Exchange for the correct eligible part or take store credit.
Return & Fee Schedule
This table shows the return shipping and fees for each type of return.
What We Accept
- Yes: Unused, resalable, original packaging. Unopened is a 10% restocking fee, plus the 3% processing fee, if refunded to the original payment method.
- Opened but unused, or the wrong part was ordered: May be accepted at our discretion, at a 20% restocking fee, plus the 3% processing fee, if refunded to the original payment method.
- No: Installed, test-fitted, used, damaged, incomplete, or kit pieces returned separately.
Final Sale (No Return / Exchange / Credit)
- Electrical & fuel parts (stators, regulators, CDI/ECU, coils, sensors, pumps, injectors).
- Engine internals, turbos, clutch kits, and body parts.
- Seats, covers, bars, grips, levers, foot controls, fairings/plastics — final sale once fitted or opened from new-in-box.
- Clearance, open-box, special orders, custom/made-to-order, and machining once labor starts.
- International orders unless we issue a written RMA (buyer pays all freight, duties, and fees; the restocking rules above still apply).
Verified manufacturing defects are handled under manufacturer warranty / inspection — not as a standard return. Report damage in transit within 7 days of delivery with photos.
After We Receive It
- Inspection: usually 24–48 hours (not weekends/holidays).
- Card refunds: typically 3–5 business days (up to 10). PayPal is usually faster.
- No RMA, no tracking, or failed inspection = no refund.
Mandatory consumer-law rights (including Australia ACL and, where applicable, UK/EU cooling-off for standard stock) apply to the extent required and are not waived.
