Exchange / Damage During Transit

14. Do you offer returns?

VinylXStudio’s exchange/return rights are governed by the separate Exchange Policy and applicable law.

VinylXStudio does not generally accept returns simply because a customer changes their mind or does not want the product after purchase.

Please read the Exchange Policy before ordering.

15. Do you offer exchanges?

Exchange is available only in circumstances covered by the VinylXStudio Exchange Policy.

In particular, eligible exchanges may apply where the product is damaged during transit, subject to the conditions and evidence requirements stated in the Exchange Policy.

16. What should I do if my record arrives damaged?

If your product appears to have been damaged during transit:

  1. Do not discard the packaging.
  2. Record the complete unboxing process.
  3. Make sure the video is continuous and unedited.
  4. Contact VinylXStudio within the required 24-hour reporting period.
  5. Provide the information and evidence required under the Exchange Policy.

Your request will then be reviewed according to the Exchange Policy.

17. Is an unboxing video really required?

Yes.

For transit-damage exchange claims, the unboxing video requirement stated in the Exchange Policy is mandatory.

The video must be a complete, continuous and uncut/unedited recording of the unboxing process.

18. What happens if I do not record an unboxing video?

If the Exchange Policy requires an unboxing video and you do not record one, VinylXStudio may not be able to verify when or how the damage occurred.

Therefore, the exchange request may be declined.

19. What if my unboxing video has been cut or edited?

A cut, edited or interrupted video may not satisfy the unboxing-video requirement.

VinylXStudio reserves the right to decline an exchange request where the required continuous and unedited evidence has not been provided.

20. How much time do I have to report transit damage?

Transit damage must be reported within 24 hours of delivery, subject to the requirements of the Exchange Policy.

Claims submitted after the applicable period may be declined unless otherwise required by applicable law.

21. Can I request an exchange because I changed my mind?

Generally, no.

VinylXStudio’s exchange process is primarily for eligible situations covered by the Exchange Policy, such as qualifying transit damage.

A change of mind, personal preference or simply not wanting the product does not ordinarily qualify for an exchange.

22. Can I exchange a vintage or pre-owned record?

Eligibility depends on the individual product and the circumstances described in the Exchange Policy.

Normal age-related characteristics of vintage or pre-owned products should not automatically be treated as transit damage.

Please read the product description carefully before purchasing.

23. Who decides whether an exchange request is eligible?

VinylXStudio reviews exchange requests against the applicable Exchange Policy and the evidence provided by the customer.

A request that does not satisfy the policy requirements may be declined.

24. Why is the unboxing video required?

The unboxing video helps establish the condition of the package and product at the moment it is received and opened.

It helps protect both customers and VinylXStudio from disputes and fraudulent or unverifiable damage claims.

Product Condition

25. Will a vintage record look exactly like the product photograph?

Not necessarily.

Vintage and collectible products can have individual characteristics and may differ slightly from photographs because of lighting, photography, screen settings or minor physical variations.

Always refer to the product description and condition information.

26. Can vintage records have signs of age?

Yes.

Depending on the individual product, vintage records, sleeves, covers and other components may have signs associated with age or previous ownership.

Relevant condition information should be checked before purchasing.
