Terms of Sale

1. Pricing and Availability

All prices are shown in U.S. dollars (except where otherwise noted on certain REI adventure travel trips); taxes, shipping and handling charges are additional. All items are subject to availability and we reserve the right to impose quantity limits on any order, to reject all or part of an order and to discontinue products or services without notice, even if you have already placed your order. All prices are subject to change without notice and you agree that taxes may be adjusted from the amount shown on the billing screens. Several factors may cause this, such as variances between processor programs and changes in tax rates. Additionally, many products displayed on our Sites are also available in REI retail stores while supplies last, but you should not assume that what you see on the Sites can always be seen in our stores. Prices displayed on the Sites may vary from those in the store or from store-advertised prices.

2. Errors

We attempt to be as accurate as possible and to eliminate errors on the Sites; however, we do not warrant that any product, service, description, photograph, pricing or other information is accurate, complete, reliable, current or error-free. In the event of an error—whether on the Sites, in an order confirmation, in processing an order, in delivering a product or service or otherwise—we reserve the right to correct such error and to revise your order accordingly if necessary (including charging the correct price) or to cancel the order and refund any amount charged. Your sole remedy in the event of such error is to cancel your order and obtain a refund.

3. Out-of-Stock Items; Backorders

If the color or size you want is not listed in the "Choose Your Color/Size" drop-down box on the Product Information page, it is not then available for ordering. Please check back later. If the color or size you want has an asterisk next to it in the drop-down box, it is on backorder. Sometimes we will not know in advance that product is unavailable, so when you place items in your Shopping Cart you will be asked if you would like to backorder them. If you indicate yes, the item will be sent to you once it becomes available. Some items may be backordered or unavailable even if the Sites indicate that they are in-stock, and adding an item to your cart does not guarantee the availability of that item. We will not charge your payment card until the item ships to the designated delivery address. If you choose to pick up an item at an REI store, you will be charged at the time you pick up the order. If the backordered item is no longer available, we will cancel the item from your order and notify you, usually via e-mail. If you have items on backorder that you would like to cancel, please contact us.

4. Agreement to Conduct Transactions Electronically; Recording; Copies

You agree that all of your transactions with or through the Sites may, at our option, be conducted electronically from start to finish, and that any oral conversations may be recorded. If we decide to proceed non-electronically, those transactions will still be governed by the remainder of these Terms unless you enter into different terms provided by us. You are responsible to print or make an electronic copy of these Terms and any other contract or disclosure that we are required to provide to you.

5. Shipping & Handling; No Export by You

When we ship to you or per your directions, you agree to pay the shipping and any handling charges shown on the Sites when your order is placed. We reserve the right to increase, decrease, add or eliminate charges from time to time and without prior notice, so you agree to check all charges before placing an order or signing up for a service. When you ask us to ship to an REI store for pick-up, shipping is free (however, some exclusions may apply, and we reserve the right to add shipping and handling charges once we post them on the Sites). Generally, shipping is by standard ground delivery. Any shipping or handling charges may or may not reflect actual costs. All orders are shipment contracts, not destination contracts, including orders shipped to an REI store for pick-up. Any shipping times shown on the Sites are estimates only – actual delivery dates may vary. You agree that you will not obtain or direct shipment of product for export.

6. Payment; Credit for Refunds

Only valid credit cards or other payment method acceptable to us may be used and all refunds will be credited to the same card or, in our discretion, other payment method. By submitting your order, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to use the designated card or payment method and you authorize us to charge your order (including taxes, shipping, handling and any other amounts described on the Sites) to that card or other payment method. If the card (or other payment method) cannot be verified, is invalid, or is not otherwise acceptable, your order may be suspended or cancelled automatically. Regarding "Your Account," you agree to keep all payment cards or other payment method information current, and you agree that we may submit charges for processing even if the card (or other method) has expired or changed by the time we submit it. You must resolve any problem we encounter in order to proceed with your order.

7. Returns and Exchanges of Products

REI has a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee on all new products we sell on our Sites (including REI Outlet), except for outdoor electronics, which must be returned within 90 days of purchase, and a 30-day satisfaction guarantee on all used products we sell on our Sites. Outdoor electronics include activity monitors, GPS-enabled devices, bike trainers, emergency-communications devices, and cameras. Whether you made your purchase through the Sites, at any REI store or through phone/mail order, you may: (1) return or exchange new product purchases (including REI Outlet) by mail or at any of our retail locations as provided in the 100% Satisfaction Guarantee; or (2) return used gear purchases (purchased through our Used Gear site) by mail as provided in the Used Gear FAQ, subject to any contrary terms imposed on your purchase (e.g., some of our "close out" items say "no return" or the like) and provided that you follow the instructions on the Sites. General returns information and instructions can be found here.
Returns may make you ineligible for promotions and we reserve the right to require identification, proof of purchase, or additional verifiable information to help REI locate the purchase in our records. If a gift certificate or card, voucher, coupon or payment mechanism other than a credit or debit card was used to pay the original price, or if the purchase was part of a special offer that is not in effect when the return is made, we may give you a merchandise credit. After we have received your valid return, we will provide one of the following within a reasonable time: an exchange of merchandise for the item returned, a non-transferable merchandise credit, a non-transferable gift certificate or gift card, a credit to the payment card used to pay for the product, a check, or another remedy that we determine in good faith is appropriate in the circumstances. If you do not comply with any of the above conditions, we reserve the right to refuse the return or exchange, or to impose different or additional conditions, including (without limitation) basing our response on the current sales price.
If you believe a product sold by REI has a condition or defect that might make it unsafe, please report this safety concern immediately by clicking here or calling 1-800-426-4840 or (253) 891-2500.

8. Complaints and Legal Notices

All complaints and legal notices should be mailed to HAI Attn: Legal Department, P.O. Box 2250, Amagansett, NY 11930.

9. Limited Warranty, No Warranty on Used Gear

HAI warrants that new HAI branded products will be free from defects in materials and workmanship at the time of sale. This warranty does not cover damage or malfunctions caused by normal wear and tear, accident, abuse, neglect, improper storage or handling, misuse, vandalism, acts of God, or other causes external to the product.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may have other rights, which vary from State to State.
ALL USED GEAR PRODUCTS, WHETHER REI BRANDED OR NOT, ARE SOLD AS-IS, WITH ALL FAULTS. HAI makes no other express warranties and this warranty supersedes any prior representations and understandings regarding the products, including any warranty arising from course of dealing, course of performance, or usage of trade. Products eligible for warranty return may be returned or service fees may be refunded in accordance with HAI's Return Instructions. HAI does not provide a warranty for any products that are not HAI branded. HAI MAKES NO IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY ON NON-HAI BRANDED PRODUCTS.

10. Exclusive Remedy for Any Breach of Warranty; Limitation of Liability

Your sole and exclusive remedy, and HAI's sole and exclusive liability, for any breach of warranty by HAI shall be your right to return the product, or receive a refund as provided in HAI’s Return Instructions.
IN NO EVENT SHALL THE HAI PARTIES BE LIABLE FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS OR LOSS OF BUSINESS, EVEN IF THEY HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, NOR SHALL THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE HAI PARTIES (JOINTLY), WHETHER IN CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE, WHETHER ACTIVE, PASSIVE OR IMPUTED), OR OTHER THEORY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE PURCHASE OR USE OF ANY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES PURCHASED THROUGH THE SITES EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE PRODUCT OR SERVICE.
THE LIMITATIONS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 10 WILL NOT LIMIT OR EXCLUDE THE REI PARTIES' LIABILITY FOR PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE CAUSED BY PRODUCTS YOU PURCHASE THROUGH THE SITES, OR FOR THE HAI PARTIES' GROSS NEGLIGENCE, FRAUD, INTENTIONAL, WILLFUL, MALICIOUS OR RECKLESS MISCONDUCT.
Some States do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.

11. Additional Terms for Specific Features or Services

Additional terms and conditions may apply to specific features, products, or services. To the extent any additional terms conflict with these Terms, the additional terms govern with respect to your access to or use of the applicable feature, product, or service.
