What are some of the things I should consider when returning an item?

The Serial number/IMEI of the item that you are trying to send back to us MUST match the item we have sold to you as we track this number to each order. If you are trying to send back an item that is not ours, we will not allow for the return. For Apple phones and tablets, the Find My iPhone feature must be turned off prior to you sending us back the device. All devices are checked for Activation lock prior to being sent out to our customers, and thus, if there is an activation lock on the item, this has been linked to your account. We will check the item for activation lock and send instructions accordingly as to how to remove it. If you are unsuccessful in disabling the Find My iPhone feature, the return will not be accepted. If the item was tampered/altered when received, the return will not be accepted, and the device will be sent back to you as is.
