Returns

Our first priority is to have happy customers.  Please contact us if there is an issue with anything purchased from us that you think should be returned. If we have made a mistake, we will make every effort to correct that mistake. Please remember that returns, exchanges, and the like are solely at our discretion. 

If there is nothing functionally wrong with the product and VC Defense made no mistake with your order, we will continue to make the best effort toward your satisfaction. That being said, returns and exchanges are at our discretion. We will not accept product that is not in sellable condition. A 10% restocking fee will be charged as VC Defense is charged a credit card fee anytime we run the credit card machine. If any item was successfully packaged and shipped to you, shipping will not be refunded as the services billed by the USPS or FedEx was completed.

 

Shipping

We ship through FedEx and USPS only.

Please note that FedEx Express only ships on business days. Express orders such as FedEx Overnight sent to us on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday does NOT guarantee delivery on the following Monday morning. Express shipping only covers time to deliver from FedEx to you, it does not guarantee instant or overnight order processing. Order processing, regardless of shipment method, still requires receiving the order, picking, packaging, and drop off.

We only ship to the United States.  Some products have restrictions as to where they can be shipped within the United States.  It is impossible for us to know all of these restrictions.  As a buyer, you are responsible for knowing if you are allowed to receive this item into you state, county, city. By placing an order with us, you are indemnifying VC Defense from harm as a result of your purchase.

We or our website will estimate shipping costs for you.

Most non-FFL items will ship out within 24 hours. However please allow 24 to 72 hours for order fulfillment. A shipping label and tracking number being generated does not mean the products have necessarily left the business. Once your product enters USPS or FedEx possession, we have no control over the speed of shipping.

FFL items will ship out after we have received everything that is required. Delays are often as a result of the receiving FFL not reaching out to us. Most items will ship out within 24 hours of receiving everything that is required. However please allow 24 to 72 hours for processing. A shipping label and tracking number being generated does not mean the products have necessarily left the business.
