Not to worry! The Lighting Marketplace has a Low-Price Guarantee so there is no reason to hesitate or wait to make your purchase! If you ever find the exact same product advertised for less anywhere, within 30 days of your LightingMarketplace purchase, please let us know and we will happily match that price. Keep in mind that shipping and handling fees, as well as any applicable sales tax, will be taken into consideration. For example, if LightingMarketplace offers free shipping and the competitor charges for shipping, then the total price, including shipping, will be matched. Of course, we may require some form of verification of the offer and it must be made by an authorized U.S. dealer of the product, following manufacturer pricing guidelines and policies and it must be a stock item. The Low-Price Guarantee excludes clearance, closeout and returned items. Other restrictions may apply, but why not ask? For more information please contact Customer Service.

Once we receive your order we get to work on it right away. This means that changes or cancellations are not always possible. You should also know that once an order is placed, it cannot be changed online. With all of this in mind, we still do understand that sometimes you want to ask us to try, so you may contact Customer Service to make a request for a change or cancellation. We will make our best efforts to apply the requested change. If the item ships prior to confirmation of a cancellation or change request, you may return it following our standard Return Policy. Note that many items that are non-returnable cannot be cancelled. Here is more information about Changing or Canceling an Order.

We realize that refunds are a priority for our customers. Once we have received and inspected the item we are usually able to apply the refund onto the original payment card within one week. Keep in mind that due to shipping, inspection and bank processing times it sometimes takes up to 30 days from the date that you return the item for the refund to appear on your card. Here is more information about Returns.

If you change your mind and decide to return an item that is defined as returnable, there is no restocking fee, however you are responsible for the return shipping costs. If you receive an item that is damaged, defective or if it is not what you ordered, we will, of course, provide a replacement at no charge. Here is more information about Damaged Goods about Defective Goods and about Returns

If you want to return an item you may do so within 30 days of receipt as long as it is defined as a returnable item. Just contact Customer Service and we will provide pre-paid return labels. We will need your help in packaging up the item, adding the label to the box and making it available for pick up. Here is more information about Returns.

By law, The Lighting Marketplace must collect sales tax for Ohio and Florida. The tax amount is based on state/provincial and local laws and is calculated based on the shipping address you enter at Checkout. For trade professionals with resale certificates, these taxes can be waived. Our Trade Team can help you submit the proper tax exemption forms.
