DC Sax Return Policy

Buying a saxophone is a personal decision. Every instrument we sell is rigorously play tested to ensure it meets the highest quality standards, and we stand behind every item we sell. But we understand that an instrument needs to feel right. If your purchase is not to your liking, we make returns easy and hassle free.


💵 No Restocking Fee Option

Pay with a fee free alternative to a credit card, such as Zelle, and there is no restocking fee. Return the instrument and you get the full purchase price back. As with all returns, shipping and insurance both ways are the buyer's responsibility.

We are happy to discuss other payment options that waive the fee. Just contact us before you order.
