Shipping Damages
If an item comes damaged as a result of shipping, please contact us immediately.
While we do not anticipate any problems, please be sure to thoroughly inspect each package prior to signing delivery ticket and refuse any damaged equipment/supplies (including hidden damage) before you sign the freight bill.
Unfortunately, if merchandise is signed for as arriving in good condition, it releases the freight company of any liability and completely closes any freight damage claim opportunities. If there are any damaged packages, you need to refuse the damaged packages and notify us immediately so that they can prepare a replacement as quickly as possible. If you do not, you will have to wait for a freight claim and no replacement will be sent, until claim is resolved.
Refunds
Product Refunds - To qualify for a refund, our Return Conditions and Return and Exchange Instructions must be followed. If our steps are not followed, a refund may be issued in accordance with the condition of the returned merchandise and the value of any missing items. Refunds are not issued before the merchandise has been received, evaluated and processed by our Returns Team.
Shipping Refunds - Shipping charges on returns are not refundable. Shipping charges on late deliveries are not refundable, unless we guarantee them; therefore we will not be able to reimburse or refund any freight charges for late deliveries. We do not offer refunds for shipping charges, including but not limited to domestic Ground, Express or International shipping.
Restocking Fees
There will be no refunds for used Equipment returned to JRS. If Customer returns unused Equipment to JRS in its original package, in its original condition, and within thirty (30) days of delivery, JRS will refund to Customer seventy five percent (75%) of the purchase price, the remaining twenty five percent (25%) of the purchase price representing a restocking fee. Customer will bear all shipment and insurance costs related to such return shipment. All Equipment returned to JRS must be returned to the JRS facility as directed by JRS.
***Our/Manufacturer’s restocking fee charge(s) may differ, to cover our processing, packing and shipping expenses. Additional fees may apply if the item is not returned in its original packaging.

Return Conditions
Items must be returned in NEW (unused, untested, and resalable) condition, in the original manufacturer packaging, with all accessories, kit components, promotional items and instruction manuals included. For your protection, items must be returned shipping prepaid, insured for the full value and safely wrapped to prevent shipping damage.
Items that have been used by the customer or items that have been damaged by use cannot be returned to us. We also cannot accept returns on orders where a promotional item has not been returned with the order. These ‘extras’ must be included with your return to qualify for a full refund.
When repacking an item for return, please be sure to include all the free and promotional items that came with your order as well as all applicable accessories and literature. Generally, as a “rule-of-thumb" you should return the items to us the same way we sent them to you - in the same condition and with all the original contents. If a promotional item is missing, its value will be added to the original price you paid for the order, thus reducing the amount of the refund, if such is issued.
We do not accept returns on customized orders.
All charges related to the return of items to Jean’s Restaurant Supply, are the responsibility of the customer and we will not return the shipping charges for the shipment.
Price Changes and Updates
Pricing on our website is listed at the wholesale level and updated in real time. Product pages will list impending manufacturers' price increases, where applicable. For pending alternate payment / leasing orders, we reserve the right to adhere to these price increases on orders not paid in full by the specified deadline. In order to ensure that you receive the most accurate pricing on your order, we recommend that you pay in full prior to the effective date of the increase.
All prices are subject to change without notice. In the rare event that a product is listed at an incorrect price due to a website error, Jean’s Restaurant Supply will resolve the discrepancy, at our discretion, on all orders placed for the product listed at the incorrect price. This resolution may involve coming to an agreed upon price with the customer or a cancellation of the order, resulting in a full refund.

Damaged Freight Policy
We take every effort to ensure our packages arrive to you, the customer, in excellent condition, but unfortunately, packages can be lost or damaged during transit. To avoid damage/loss of items, follow this Receiving and Inspection Procedure.
1) At the time of arrival, count the number of packages and inspect the exterior of the packages for any hint of damage. If you suspect damage, do not sign the freight bill receipt prior to an internal inspection. Note shortages and all damage on the freight bill receipt. If shortages and/or damages are not reported at the time of delivery, Jean’s Restaurant Supply cannot be held responsible.
- If pallet is damaged, cracked or broken or there are visible tears, puncture holes or foot prints, open package and inspect, especially beneath the item such as legs and under carriage where damage may occur, in order to avoid hidden or concealed damage.
- Do not be rushed (driver will not leave until you sign). If the driver rushes you it is more likely your items may have damage.
- If damage is extensive, please refuse it and contact Jean’s Restaurant Supply to send out a replacement.
- If damage is cosmetic and you choose to retain it, note it on the freight bill receipt, and contact the freight company to start the claim process. Then, contact Jean’s Restaurant Supply and notify us of the situation. We will assist you in that process.
2) Once you have received your items, unpack them immediately to ensure there is no hidden or concealed damage. If you find damage, do not discard any of the original packaging. Contact the freight company immediately and request an inspection within 5 days. Have your Freight Bill Receipt available with the tracking/pro number. If damage is discovered after driver has left – the customer is responsible for filing a claim and Jean’s Restaurant Supply will not be responsible for a refund or exchange of product.
If Jean’s Restaurant Supply has mistakenly shipped the wrong item or a defective item, contact Customer Service at 1-800-840-3610 in order to obtain a call tag and we will gladly ship out the correct item. If you have received a damaged item or refused it at time of delivery, a replacement unit can be sent out provided that the Receiving and Inspection Procedure was reasonably met. Jean’s has set this policy in place to protect you, the customer.
All sales final on motors and parts, returns/exchanges not accepted.
