Policy changes at The Music Room TMR Audio


TMR has made a few changes to their policies which may interest folks.

Warranties for used gear is now 90 rather than 45 days.

Trial period is now 30 rather than 14 days.

There is now a restocking fee of 5%. Their rationale for this makes sense and seems reasonable. It would be nice if there could be exceptions to the restocking fee, such as cables and other products which don't need extensive checking for quality control. One result of this policy is that there is some more costly gear I would have tried but now am reluctant. I suppose that’s just a personal admission.

Even 10% restocking fee would be fair. A policy to waive the restocking fee if you bought something of equal or higher value might get some traction.

Come the end of the day if you don’t like their new policy don’t buy from them. Nothing is this thread , including math examples of 5% times X prices, is going to change TMR’s or any other dealer’s policy.

Greetings TMR-Audiophiles, we appreciate the continued opportunity to serve you all. I just wanted to pop in and clarify the new policy for anyone who has not read the "fine print."

CPO Products (used): 30 day returns, 90-day warranty, 5% restocking fee.


Factory Authorized (new or open box): 60 day returns, manufacturer warranty, No restocking fee.

 

We are now factory authorized for over 50 great HiFi brands, so it’s important to make the distinction that the restocking fee only applies to returns of CPO gear, and in those cases only when a product is not defective. Of course, we can always work with a customer when there are unique circumstances or an exchange. We don’t want to take the fun out shopping with us!

 

Thank you all for your continued support and patronage.

Josh

 

Too bad the restocking fee is not applied to future purchases. Win-win?

I don’t realize you could make an offer on a used item at TMR

I’be been interested in a couple things, but have never used them

How does one make an offer on a piece of gear if that provision isn’t made clear on the product page?

Also, does anyone have experience buying turntables from them?
