What does Coroto mean?
It is a word of Spanish colloquial language used in some countries of Latin America -without exact translation to the English language- and means a total variety of things, objects, artifacts, appliances, mechanical or electronic devices and gadgets, utensils, tools, clothes, parts and so on. Usually, it is understood that a Coroto has been previously used. However, these can also be old stuff (never used) or brand new. Generalizing, the word Coroto means all kinds of things for the house, office, technology, personal use, sports, pets, vehicles or to perform any kind of job, art or hobby. In other words, everything is a Coroto.
We are a small family business, focused on providing the best service to our buyers in order to achieve their essential support to continue and grow our business.

Our Business Philosophy:
As E-Bay seller we understand this is a business in which the trust is the most important pillar or foundation. Everyday Vendors and Buyers build and consolidate this business, through their trusted decisions and actions. For this reason, in CorotoUSA all our decisions and actions, as an e-bay seller, are based and aim to build trust with our buyers.
When we publish the products that we have for sale we dedicate our best effort to describe them accurately. However, due to the variety of products, we cannot guarantee our expertise in all of them. Some differences of perception may arise, which are due to perceptual criteria or lack of knowledge about some
technical and operational aspects of the item,
never ever any kind of bad intention.  Old stock but 100 % Brand New
We carefully review and update regularly our prices, comparing them with different markets in order to obtain the fairest price. Additionally, we calculate with precision and without wasting space the boxes of our shipments in order to avoid wasted of money.
Therefore, when we provide our buyers with the option of
OBO
"Or Best Offer"
we refer to a reasonable, fair and decent proposal, which would define for us as:
OBRO (Or Best Reasonable Offer).
Special offers for 48 hours
: On certain occasions we can send offers to some watchers interested in a product of our listing. We open these special offers only for a period of 48 hours, after that period has elapsed, the price of the product returns to its original sales value. However, according to our sales policy:
We do not accept counter offers on these offers
.
The costs of this type of business (E-bay Shop)
are many and varied: The search for products involves hours of internet and visiting a lot of places to acquire them. This task consumes time and expenses of vehicle and transportation. Additionally, packaging and delivery of items to the post office consume packaging materials, transportation costs and a lot of time to do a good packing job. We must pay some fees to E-Bay for its online commerce service. And -of course- the cost at which we acquire the products we offer for sale and the losses of items that we have bought, and that we must discard, because they do not work properly or their market price is so low that it does not justify listing them in our e-bay store, because this type of items would represent only loss of money . All of these are expenses of this type of business, what we must consider as an indispensable condition to set our prices and continue our business.
Customer satisfaction is a high priority for CorotoUSA
Our commitment to the environment:
We are a small company with commitment and environmental awareness, concerned with environmental issues and, for this reason, we make every effort to recycle packaging materials. Additionally, in our packaging process we dedicate time, to do it in a safe way for the item that we are sending and avoiding wasting space, because it is expensive for our buyers, for us and environmentally unreasonable to transport air in the empty spaces.

Our negotiations will be strictly governed by the following policies and regulations, which are based on e-bay's policies, guidelines and regulations.

For part, products or items that require installation, we cannot take responsibility for failures or errors during the installation process and / or damage to the item or equipment, which may be done during the installation process. We recommend that the installation be performed by a qualified technician with the respective occupational license.
In replacement items for technical, electric, electronic, technology or any equipment or part that requires installation, the buyer assumes all responsibility for reviewing in detail the specifications, features and photos of the product we are selling, asking for measurements and any other
important details, to compare with the original part and thus avoid damage or deterioration of the equipment or part. The seller is not responsible for these errors or their consequences.
In items listed by us as "
Free Shipping
", but in which we agree with a buyer some change in the original conditions of the listing, for the benefit of the buyer, we as sellers take the right to change the mail service indicated in the listing original for a cheaper one, which could slightly delay the delivery date of the item.
Additionally, we wish to clarify that some items that are considered vintage, it is common in these items, for reasons of longevity or because they remained in storage for a few years, do not have operations manuals or instructions and the boxes could be discolored or maybe damaged.
Some of the items we offer,
we clarify that they are
New Old Stock
(Never used), but these are not always the newest version available in the market.
Our Return Policy
The items we send sealed with the original packaging (never opened before) will not be accepted as a return once opened by the buyer. Items must be in a similar condition if a return is needed. No missing pieces, parts or components or a refund will not be issued.
If a buyer doesn't receive their item, they're entitled to a refund or a replacement unless we can provide tracking information showing that it was delivered.
But if the buyer receives the item defective or faulty, we will refund all original cost (purchase plus shipping) or we will replace the item -after the customer return the item to us- even if we don't offer returns in this item. This benefit does not apply when the item was sold in condition as is.
If
by any involuntary error on our part the item
doesn't match the listing description, we will return to the customer the total amount of the purchase (Cost of the item + Shipping)
If the buyer chooses and pays for their own shipping service, we do not assume any responsibility for damage, lost or deteriorate to the item during the shipping process.
If the item was sent with
insurance coverage
, and it is lost or deteriorated, the buyer must give us all their support to process the claim, as a condition to receive the
full refund of the item and shipping amount, because the insurance returns both payments. We refund the money to the buyer, once the shipping service confirms to us the approval of the insurance payment.
Some products are offered for sale in "AS IS" condition (with no damages noticed). Because regardless of whether we have performed some basic tests of the item's operation, but we cannot guarantee with precision that all its elements or functions work properly. In the part of Description and Characteristics, we mention any detail that we observe in the item during the cleaning and testing processes, which we do to the item before putting it on sale. In these items the return will not be accepted.
If the buyer wishes to change the product just because he or she changed his mind or ordered a wrong item, we will accept or not the return under the following regulations:
If in the listing we indicate that the item had no return option, the return of the item will not be accepted, unless an exception is indicated in this return policy.
If in the listing the product was offered on
sale condition "As Is", the return will not be accepted.
If the buyer wishes to return the item only for some detail or condition of the product or part, which was already indicated in the listing, the return will not be accepted.
All returns attributed to the sole responsibility of the buyer, such as errors in the shipping address, wrong purchase of products or changes of mind will be subject to a
15% of restocking fee
, plus any additional charges for reasons of freight or shipping we must pay to freight company or postal service.
If we agree with the buyer
to accept the return of the item, outside of what is established in this return policy and as a courtesy of us, the buyer will need to send the item back to us before we issue a refund or send out a replacement. In these cases, the buyer will be responsible for the round-trip shipping and we will return only the purchase value of the item, when the item cannot be replaced.
Recommendations to our buyers in order to achieve a mutually beneficial Buying and Selling Process:
We encourage our buyers to review in detail, not only the
description of the item, but also the pictures, because we want our buyers have the most accurate idea about the item, they are interested in buying. All included items and parts are shown in the pictures. What you see is what you will get. Please, look closely.
Likewise, we want to motivate our buyers to do any questions
before or after making the purchase, preferably before to avoid unnecessary expenses. If you need more information, do not hesitate to contact us and feel free to ask any questions. We will give a prompt response.  But we want to clarify that we are not plumbers, electricians, computer technicians or mechanics, we are only online sellers, therefore, for that reason we do not have all answers and we do not offer technical or installation advice.
We would appreciate that our buyers do not
assume anything,
because our perception or opinion in reference to the item or article could be different from the perception or opinion of another person. For that reason,
we
try to describe our items as accurately and honestly as possible, in order to detail and disclose to our buyers any signs of wear or imperfections that we have been able to detect in the item for sale. We dedicate time to clean
the items that we will put on sale, but we do not make any kind of cosmetic repairs to hide any defect.
In those eventual cases, in which an item sold by us does not work properly, we cannot assume any responsibility to the buyer, for any loss of time or money, as a result of the item not working as expected. We would never sell any item that we knew does not work properly. We make the clarification -in the listing- of "Not tested by us or tested limitedly by us", for those items in which we do not have equipment, knowledge or parts to check its effective operation. In some cases, we only have the word and good faith of the previous owner, who told us that the item worked properly. It is difficult to guarantee 100% the proper functioning of an item, more if it has been previously used. Additionally, the item may have deteriorated during the shipping process, regardless of our efforts to send it properly protected. The buyer assumes that risk. However, except for items sold in "AS IS" condition, most of our products are sold with the return option, if they do not work.
We will appreciate your valuable feedback about our product, price and service. If for any reason, you feel we did not provide the best service or there is any issue or disappointment with your transaction, please do not leave negative or neutral feedback without contacting us first, so we can rectify the situation in a timely manner.
We will do our best to resolve any concern or problem.
