Astral Hoops is known for providing excellent service to our customers. As an Astral Hoops authorized reseller we pledge to provide you with all of the necessary knowledge and support to provide the best possible service to your customers.

Our goal with Astral Hoops is to help promote health, community, happiness, and innovation by supporting and encouraging hooping, flow arts, play, technology, wonder, and the transformational communities they are a part of. We've adopted the following reseller program to ensure that vendors reselling our products also adhere to the same high standard, morals, and values that we do.

This program is for resellers only. You must have an established flow related retail business to become an Astral Hoops reseller. This can include, but is not limited to, retail stores, dance studios containing a shop, festival vendors, and websites.

Reseller Agreement

Maintaining the Astral Hoops Brand

The Astral Hoops brand must be maintained. The re-branding of Astral Hoops products is not allowed.

Product Knowledge and Descriptions

If posting Astral Hoops products online, the listings should contain complete and accurate product descriptions.

If selling our products in a physical store or at a festival, the sales person should be fully knowledgeable about them. The sales person should be able to explain the different options and help the customer select what will work best for them. The sales person should also be able to demonstrate the use of the product and explain all of its features.

Astral Hoops manuals should always be distributed with a sold product.

Modifications

Astral Hoops products are not to be modified in any way without prior authorization. If you have an idea for a clever modification, let us know!

Allowable Marketplaces

Astral Hoops products are to be sold in the venues you've been specifically authorized to sell them in only. They are never to be sold on third party websites such as eBay, Etsy, Amazon, etc. Please let us know in advance if you would like to sell our products at a festival. Festivals are a great place to vend Astral Hoops products. However, we already vend at many festivals and we'd like to coordinate with you to avoid overlapping at the same festival.

Drop Shipping

We do provide drop shipping with prior authorization. The actual shipping cost plus will be charged for drop shipped orders. Drop ship requests should be sent to sales@astralhoops.com.

If you provide your customer's email address, we can also send the customer the tracking number.

If an item is returned to us as undeliverable, any additional shipping fees for reshipment or redirection will be charged to you the reseller.

Our products come with a lifetime warranty. We offer paid servicing for non-warranty damage. We also offer a wide range of other services for our products. This include resizing, retubing, upgrading, and more. Please direct customers to our Service Page [https://shop.astralhoops.com/products/astral-service] for all warranty claims or modifications they would like.

Unauthorized servicing of Astral Hoops is frowned on and will void the warranty. Working on one of our products without proper knowledge and equipment can cause serious damage.

Returns

Excess "stocked" products may be returned to us by resellers within 3 months of original purchase. The products must be in new and sell-able condition.

There is a 10% restocking fee on all returned items.

Defective or damaged items can be repaired or replaced according to our warranty and service menu.

Custom Relations

We will provide the following for your customers:

  • Warranty service
  • Non-warranty repair and modification services

  • Support with questions they may have about the product they have purchased and its operation. (We also encourage you to provide post-sale support to your customers. It's just good service.)

With the exception of servicing warranties, we will not accept returns or exchanges directly from your customers. If a customer contacts us requesting to return or exchange a product and they are not in our customer database, we will direct them to contact the reseller where they purchased the item. Do not instruct a customer to ship an item to us. All warranty and service items must be sent through our service order system [http://astralhoops.com/servicerq].
