5. Satisfaction Guarantee
Montana Casting Co. fly rods and reels purchased on this website, www.montanacastingco.com, are subject to a 30-day satisfaction guarantee. If you are not happy with your rod or reel, simply return it to us within 30 days of receipt (the date shown on the tracking email announcing delivery of the package), and if it is eligible for return and refund, we will refund your money. To be eligible for a refund, you must have the original receipt from your purchase on our website, and the rod or reel must be in its original condition with no signs of damage.
For fly rods, all parts, including the rod itself, rod sock, case, and removable fighting butt/butt cap, if applicable, and accompanying fighting butt pouch, if applicable, must be returned in their original condition, with no visible signs of scratching, tears, or any other damage to any of the parts.
For reels, all parts, including the reel, reel spool, reel pouch, and original packaging (box) must be returned in their original condition, with no visible signs of damage to any of the parts.
To return an item covered under this Satisfaction Guarantee, please use our Returns Center at https://montanacastingco.returnscenter.com. If you have any issues with our Returns Center, you can contact us at returns@montanacastingco.com, and write “RETURNS” in the subject line. Customer will be charged for postage to cover returning the item.
6. Returns and Exchanges
Please inspect your order upon receipt and contact us immediately if the item is defective, damaged or if you receive the wrong item. Montana Casting Co.® fly rods and reels may be subject to our Montana Handshake Warranty, which you can find on our Montana Handshake Warranty Page and which you should review. Our rods and reels are also subject to our satisfaction guarantee outlined in Section 5 of these Purchase and Refund Terms, above. For everything else, we have a 60-day return policy, which means you have 60 days after receiving your item (the date the tracking email shows the package has been delivered) to request a return.
Returns:
To be eligible for a return within the 60 day return period, (or in the case of rods or reels, after the initial 30-Day Satisfaction Guarantee Period and within 60 days of receipt of your rod or reel), your item must be in the same condition that you received it, unworn or unused, with tags, and in its original packaging. You’ll also need the original receipt. Certain types of items cannot be returned, like custom products (such as custom rods or custom rod packages, open packages of leaders, tippet or backing, and seconds). Rods and Reels that have been used are not eligible for return after the initial 30-day Satisfaction Guarantee period. Only rods and reels that have not been used and are in their original packaging will be eligible for return between 30 and 60 days from the date the item was received. Please get in touch if you have questions or concerns about your specific item. We do not accept returns for gift cards or on-sale items, unless the item is damaged or defective.
To start a return, please use our Returns Center at https://montanacastingco.returnscenter.com. If you have any issues with our Returns Center, you can contact us at returns@montanacastingco.com, and write “RETURNS” in the subject line. If your return is accepted, you will receive a return shipping label, as well as instructions on how and where to send your package. Items sent back to us without first using the Returns Center or requesting a return via email will not be accepted. We may require that you email us pictures of products to determine whether we will accept a return. Even if we agree to accept a return, we may not accept the return if, upon receipt of the item, it does not meet the eligibility criteria noted above or is different from any pictures or descriptions you send us. You can always contact us for any return questions at returns@montanacastingco.com or 406-285-1452.
Exchanges:
The fastest way to ensure you get what you want is to return the item you have, and once the return is accepted, make a separate purchase for the new item. PLEASE BE ADVISED that processing times are estimated and not guaranteed and may be longer that estimated.
Refunds:
We will notify you once we’ve received and inspected your return, and let you know if the refund was approved or not. If approved, you’ll be automatically refunded on your original payment method. Please remember it can take some time for your bank or credit card company to process and post the refund.
