Return Policy

Return Policy

The staff of the OTC Bookstore strives to make your visit to our store as easy and efficient as possible. Our return policy has been designed to assist us in this goal, and we have made it available to you so that you may know what to expect from us. Always keep your receipt, and have it available when making a return or exchange, as this will greatly ease the processing of your transaction.
