Quality is important at Autism Gear, and when a shipment arrives with items that are less than perfect, those items are set aside. The blemishes are minor enough that they got past the manufacturer's quality control--but our quality control is a bit tighter.
Therefore, the items on this page are offered at less than full price to make up for their minor imperfections. Like everything else on the site, these items can be returned if you are not happy with them.
On occasion, a product will be sold on clearance when it is being discontinued from the product line. For items marked "CLEARANCE," condition is new and undamaged.
PLEASE NOTE: All items on this page are limited in quanity, and will be removed from the site as they run out. Since the inventory is not tied directly to the website, it's possible for someone to buy the last one just before your order comes in. If that happens, a refund will be issued.
