Manufacturers Warrantees Authorized Retailer

It has come to our attention that a few manufacturers, in an attempt to control the marketplace, are trying to limit retailers, like ourselves, from selling their products online and / or on third party websites such as Amazon and eBay. They are threatening not to honor their factory warranty if we sell on these sites and we simply do not find this right or ethical.

 

They do this by claiming retailers of their product are unauthorized sellers.  Even though their product was purchased legitimately thru normal distribution channels.  They often do this because they want exclusive rights to sell their products on these websites and / or they think retailers are selling their product too cheaply.  This is an unfair way they manipulate the marketplace and control prices. 

 

We at American Outfitter, LLC., DBA Ammo Sale, will therefore honor any manufacturer’s warranty with a replacement, repair or refund, at our discretion, in line with the original manufactures warranty should any manufacturer refuse to honor their original warranty by claiming we were not and authorized retailer. All manufactures warranties terms and conditions must be met under the original manufactures warranty for this offer to be valid.

This includes but is not limited to charge backs and canceling checks. If the customer does pursue any actions that would dispute and / or recover any charges, cost and fees that we have collected and / or deducted from the customers refund / account they agree to pay for any charges, cost or fees we may accrue defending such actions.

8.  Feedbacks and Reviews: We welcome any honest and truthful feedback and reviews but any written or spoken untruthful, unsubstantiated damaging statements against us are a breach of contract.

9.  Applicable Taxes and Fees: Most states now require internet retailers to collect and remit sales tax based on economic nexus (shipping into their state). On June 21, 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned the 1992 Quill Corp. vs. North Dakota ruling which had held that internet sellers must have a physical presence in a state before they are required to collect sales tax in that state.

We charge applicable state and local sales taxes in states in which we have an obligation to collect such taxes. We also collect applicable compliance fees in some states. We follow the rules of each state based on the shipping address where the order is to be received.
