Return & Cancellation Policy
Last updated: October 21, 2025
Thank you for shopping with Auburn Tires N Wheels. This policy explains how order cancellations, refunds, and returns are handled for online purchases made through our website. Orders are placed online, the shop orders from its vendor, and installation occurs in person at the shop.
1. Order Process
- Your order is received by Auburn Tires N Wheels.
- The shop places the order with its tire vendor/supplier.
- When the tires arrive, we contact you to schedule in-person installation.
Because tires are sourced specifically for your order, our return and cancellation rules depend on the fulfillment stage.
2. Returns
No returns after installation. Once installation has begun, the tires are considered used and cannot be returned or resold.
If you suspect an error (e.g., incorrect size or product), please contact us before installation so we can help resolve the issue.
3. Order Cancellations
You may cancel your order any time before installation begins.
a) Cancellations due to our mistake
- Wrong size/product ordered on your behalf
- Vendor unavailability or unexpected delay
- Obvious pricing/listing error
→ You will receive a full refund, including Stripe processing fees.
b) Other cancellation reasons
- Change of mind or purchase elsewhere
- Incorrect details submitted at checkout
→ We’ll refund the order minus Stripe’s non-refundable processing fees(typically around 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction; actual fees depend on your card, country, and Stripe’s current rates).
4. Refund Timeline
Refunds are processed through Stripe. Once approved, funds usually appear in your account within 5–10 business days, depending on your bank.
5. Installation Appointments
- Please notify us as soon as possible if you need to reschedule or cancel.
6. Non-Returnable Items & Services
- Installed tires
- Mounting, balancing, alignment, and other performed services
- Special-order or custom-fit products once sourced
7. How to Request a Cancellation or Refund
Please reach out with your order number and details. We’ll confirm order status (e.g., vendor sourced/shipped, appointment scheduled) and next steps.
