Beware of Refund Policies

Recently I read a story about an elderly man who bought his 80 yr old wife a mobility scooter for Christmas.  His wife dreamed of riding a mobility scooter on the seafront on Christmas Day.  She died a day before Christmas.  Her husband was devastated.  When he went to return the brand new scooter the store denied him a refund.  They said they don't give refunds, period.  I really feel for this elderly man.

So I thought it would be important for you to learn what the return policy is of the scooter store where you purchase your scooter.

Here is a summary of the return policies of popular online mobility scooter stores:

1800WheelChair.com  30-Day refund policy with 10% restocking fee.  1800Wheelchair was one of the first merchants to sell mobility scooters online.  They have a solid reputation and have sold many scooters online.  Their customers have given them great reviews.

SpinLife.com  30-Day refund policy. Cushions have a 15% restocking fee, all power chairs have a 10% restocking fee and ultra lightweight wheelchairs, sport wheelchairs, handcycles and any custom-ordered items are non-returnable.  Spinlife has a remarkable collection of mobility scooter customer reviews.
