Purchased Lumen LED H13 headlights, Lumen H13XHLC-G8 - G8 LED Conversion Kit (H13) for $162.92. Received couple days later. Opened box and first noticed NO shrink wrap. Top of box appeared crushed with a grease stain on lid. Opened box and saw what appeared to be headlights that were already installed. One had the red gasket seal loose and what appeared to be impression of installation on the face of the gaskets. Did not even bother to take out of foam molded case, contacted carid and they told me to prove it. All over their website is a "No Hassle" returns.

After 5 emails asking for an RMA, I receive this...

"For orders delivered within the continental US where the reason for return is not a result of a CARiD error, the cost of the initial shipping charge and a return fee will be deducted from your refund. A prepaid shipping label(s) will be provided. The flat fee for each item being returned can be found in the chart below:

Retail cost of the item:     Per Item Return Fee:

Less than $25.00     $3.50

From $25.00-$49.99     $5.50

From $50.00-$99.99     $7.50

More than $100.00     $9.50"

Already ripped me off for double shipping rate of $12.97. They are located less than 100 miles from me, shipped UPS Ground, under 3lbs. Now want me to pay a fee for returning?

How is selling used for new not their error?

Then found out they stock nothing, everything is dropped shipped from 3rd parties...

"ITEM # 287476111 - Lumen® H13XHLC-G8 - G8 LED Conversion Kit (H13)

We are waiting for a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) label from the manufacturer. Normal turnaround time for RMA process is 24-72 hours."

 

Has been 6 days since intital contact, of course they denied it was their problem. And now I am waiting for a 3rd party RMA that I am sure I will never receive.
