Failure to notify Micron CPG or the original retailer within the above time periods will constitute acceptance of the product for all purposes. No product may be returned for any reason without obtaining a RMA number from Micron CPG. You are responsible for returning the product to Micron CPG at your risk and expense. You are responsible for any duties and taxes due on replacement product sent from Micron CPG.
