RETURNS
You’re welcome to request a return within 30 days of the date your order is delivered. To help us process your return fairly and efficiently, we accept unused paddles in new, unplayed condition, with no wear, scratches, damage, alteration, or removed components. Please include the original packaging, labels, accessories, and protective cover where supplied.
For bundles and sets, please return every item, accessory, and promotional gift included with the purchase together. We’re unable to process partial bundle returns. Please contact us before returning your order so we can provide the correct return address and help avoid processing delays.
SlamOpus provides complimentary standard shipping on eligible orders. For an approved non-defective return, we refund only the product amount actually paid. For example, a paddle purchased for $169 is refunded at $169 after the return is received and approved.

MINOR SURFACE RESIDUE
COSMETIC OR STRUCTURAL?
Due to the thermoforming process, a paddle may occasionally have a small amount of removable adhesive residue near the edge or surface. Minor removable residue is generally cosmetic and does not affect the paddle’s performance or structural integrity. After contacting SlamOpus for confirmation, it may be gently removed with a pickleball paddle cleaning eraser. To protect the paddle, please avoid solvents, sharp tools, or abrasive household cleaners.
If you notice excessive or non-removable residue, edge separation, delamination, cracking, raised surfaces, or anything that affects play or structural integrity, please contact us. We’ll review it as a potential manufacturing defect and help determine the appropriate solution.
