The Nikon Store will not accept any merchandise for return after the return period has expired.
After the return period has expired, please refer to any Limited Warranty that may be provided with the merchandise.
Shipping Instructions
The Nikon Store address is located on the peel-off return label on the packing slip accompanying the order. The RMA number must be clearly written on the return label in the area designated. We strongly recommend shipping merchandise via UPS or other delivery service that provides tracking information and insurance. The customer is responsible for any merchandise lost or damaged in transit to, and until it is received by, the Nikon Store. Shipping and processing charges for returned merchandise are the customer's responsibility.
Any merchandise received without a properly displayed RMA number, or that otherwise does not meet the requirements of this policy, are unauthorized returns and will be refused and returned to the sender of origin.
Timing of Refund
The Nikon Store will issue a credit to the original payment method for properly returned merchandise. Please allow 1-2 billing cycles after return of merchandise for the credit to be processed and visible on the applicable payment statement.
