Beware Audiocadabra Cables: High Return Shipping and Won't Get Full Refund!

I ordered a pair of RCA cables from their website for US $99.00. Decided to return because they were no better than several other cables I had on hand. Be aware that if you want to return your item for a refund, they will deduct US $39.00 for shipping them back to India. Wasn't worth returning. Here is the email:
Hello David,

Thank you for your email.

Please treat this email as a Return Authorization.

We'll issue refund of USD 60 (less shipping of USD 39) after we receive
the cable. The product must be returned in an 'As New' and resalable
condition (as determined by us).

Kindly return the cable, back to us, to the following address via USPS
only:

Audiopolitan Accessories LLP
H704 Marigold, Valley of Flowers
Thakur Village
Kandivali East
Mumbai - 400101
India

It is interesting that you would expect a company to pay for shipping both ways, just to let you demo the cable. Especially for 100 bucks.

Beware?
It clearly states on their guarantee page that you will receive your money back less shipping. 
Your op reads as if they did something underhanded, which is clearly not the case.

@ebm

Why would you buy cables from India anyway.

At that price point why India? Try Cullen or Audio Envy, made in the US.

With all the snake oil available in the US, you ventured out to some unknown, unseen vendor a half a world away to get snookered.  The operative phrase in your original post is " Decided to return because they were no better than several other cables I had on hand".  Fortunately you've only been taken for $40, not the whole $100.
