If Customer returns an item for a refund, Customer will also receive a refund for the sales tax paid for that item.

Retention of title

Maintenance of products

The washing and maintenance instructions indicated on the tags of the products are pointed out to the Customer.  Derbystar Canada does not bear costs or compensate any damage occurring to products due to improper handling.

 

Ball care is indicated below for Customer:

  • Keep in a dry location at a minimum temperature of 15 degrees Celsius.  If stored over a longer period of time, release some air. 
  • Do not store near a heat source.
  • It is normal for the ball to naturally deflate when not in use.  The high quality bladder will gradually release some air.  Check for proper pressure prior to each use.
  • Regularly put in a few drops of valve oil in the valve prior to inflating.  This will protect the valve and increases the lifespan of the ball.  
  • Always use a universal pump for hollow needle valves.  
  • Wipe the ball off with a moist cloth and towel dry after each use.  Insure that the ball is completely dry before storing away.
  • Never rub with leather fat or abrasive cleaner.
  • Using the ball on hard surfaces such as concrete or gravel will damage the surface of the ball.  We strongly recommend against using the ball on any surface other than grass and field turf.  
  • Field turf will often result in scuff marks to the ball.  Do not try to remove these scuffs with any leather fat or abraisvie cleaners

 

Derbystar Canada does not bear costs or compensate any damage occurring to balls which do not adhere to the ball care requirements.
