RETURN POLICY 

 What is Paragon Sports' general return policy during this unprecedented time? 
Starting Monday we are allowing returns and continuing our 30 Day return policy.  
 
What if I’ve missed my return window because Paragon Sports has been closed since March 17th? 
Example: We closed our store on March 17th. If you purchased something on March 17th you will have 30 days from 6-22 to return the item. If you purchased something on March 7th you will have 20 Days from 6-22 to return the item and so on and so forth. We will be strictly enforcing this return policy.   
 
What is the procedure for returning Youth Seasonal Ski Rental Equipment? 
Update as of 09/01/20: Our original ski lease return date was 04/01/20 to receive a full deposit. This allows us to prepare and tune our skis for the upcoming season. However, due to the challenges of this year, we have accommodated our customers by allowing them to return up their skis by 09/01/2020 to receive their full deposit back. For customers who were not able to return their skis by the previously extended 09/01/20 deadline, we have made further accommodation. Any Ski Leases received after 09/01/2020 and before 09/30/2020 will be eligible for their deposit to be refunded to a promotional gift card in the value of the original deposit.  This promotional card will expire on 10/15/2020. There will be no cash refunds offered at this point. Please bring your receipt and credit card from the original transaction with you.
