No authorization is necessary. Books must be packed securely and accompanied by a complete packing list or copy of the original invoice. The packing list must refer to the original invoice number and order date. Hoover Press accepts returns three months to one year from date of purchase. Returned books must be unmarked and resalable as new. Credit will not be given for unacceptable returns. Hoover Press will hold any unacceptable returns for two months, during which time the customer may request a call tag for the books. The press must be notified of discrepancies within 45 days of the receipt of books.
