At Heritage Discoveries, we stand by the quality of the artifacts and products we offer. Many of our items come with a manufacturer's warranty, while others, particularly unique historical pieces, are sold with a guarantee of authenticity.
- Manufacturer's Warranty: For newly produced items, such as reproduction tools, books, or educational materials, the standard manufacturer's warranty applies. This typically covers defects in materials and workmanship for a period specified by the manufacturer, usually 1 year from the date of purchase. Please refer to the product's individual page or packaging for specific warranty details.
- Authenticity Guarantee: For genuine historical artifacts, we provide a certificate of authenticity guaranteeing the item's provenance and historical accuracy. While these items do not come with a traditional "warranty" against wear and tear (as they are often centuries old!), our guarantee ensures that the item is precisely as described.
- Warranty Claims: If you believe your product has a defect covered under warranty, please contact our customer support team with your order number, a description of the issue, and any relevant photographs. We will guide you through the process of filing a claim, which may involve returning the item for inspection or repair/replacement.
Please note that warranties typically do not cover damage caused by misuse, accidents, normal wear and tear, or unauthorized modifications. For any questions regarding a specific product's warranty, feel free to contact us.
