St. Herman Press offers replacements or credit on returned merchandise. For damaged and defective returns, it is assumed that you will expect replacements—please specify if you have another preference. To insure proper credit for returns, please include invoice numbers, dates and applicable discounts.

Damaged Returns include any books received from St. Herman Press which—on arrival—are scuffed, torn, or otherwise unsaleable due to physical damage from shipping. These returns must be made within 30 days of invoice date.

Defective Returns include any books received from St. Herman Press which—on discovery—have missing, out of sequence, or blurred pages. These may be made as soon as they are discovered.

Overstock Returns may be made 90 days after the date of invoice. Those made within 6 months of purchase require no prior authorization; those made after 6 months require prior written authorization.

We accept returns which meet the following criteria:

Those books purchased on St. Herman Press invoices, only. Any returns of purchases through distributors and wholesalers must be processed independently with these firms on their terms.

Overstock Returns must be received in saleable condition. Any received in unsaleable condition (shelf-worn, dog-eared, damaged in return shipment, price-marked, etc.) will be deducted from the credit request and returned at the customer’s expense by the least expensive form of post available.
