Trial Terms

• Mandatory Return: All trial endpins must be returned at the end of the 10-day period, regardless of whether you intend to purchase one.

• Shipping and Trial Credit: The trial deposit covers round-trip shipping. Should you decide to purchase one of the endpins from the set, $40 of this deposit will be credited towards your final purchase price.

• Size Compatibility (10mm ONLY): These trial endpins are strictly 10mm in diameter. Please verify your instrument's socket size before ordering. If the endpins do not fit because your instrument requires an 8mm rod or any other size other than 10mm, the trial fee will not be refunded.

• Damage Policy: Any damage incurred during the trial will result in the mandatory purchase of that specific endpin(s). The item will be shipped back to you, and the card on file will be charged for the full retail value of the damaged unit(s). To prevent damage to the rods, please ensure you have a compatible collar design (such as FASTER, New Harmony, Bender, Saddle Rider, or Bois d'Harmonie). Generally, any collar design that distributes pressure evenly and does not press against a single spot on the rod is acceptable
  

• Secure Return Packaging: It is the player's responsibility to ensure all endpins are packaged securely for the return shipment. Any damage resulting from improper or insufficient packaging during transit will be treated as damage during the trial and is subject to the mandatory purchase policy.

• Order Lead Time: As these precision endpins are handcrafted in Spain, please allow for a 2–3 week lead time for the fulfillment of your new endpin after the trial concludes.
