All Oneness Rods are sold on eBay, which offers the eBay 30 day money back guarantee Return Policy.  After receiving your bamboo fishing rod if you’re not completely satisfied please return it for full refund.  The mission of Oneness Rods is to bring joy to fly fishers when enjoying their time in Nature.  Don’t hesitate contacting me if you have a question about Oneness Rods.  In the event your fishing rod is damaged, it can be returned to be evaluated for possible repair or refurbishing.  If the actual bamboo blank is damaged and unable to be repaired I’ll honor a one-time replacement rod at half the then current price of a Oneness Rod, to the original owner of the rod.  A replacement rod with a different taper than the original rod, or if the same taper is preferred it’ll have to be made the following season.  Oneness Rods are both plasticized and varnished to reduce the chance of moisture penetrating the bamboo blank causing swelling or decay, but if it were to happen you can return it for possible repair or replacement.  Just return the original damaged fishing rod for evaluation.  Over time your Oneness rod may develop a set near the tip if it doesn’t already have one; which would be due to the length of the rod blank, and that Oneness Rods tend to have a longer finer dry fly tip.  If your Oneness rod doesn’t have a slight set, then you’re not truly enjoying your Oneness rod.  I have done numerous tests casting rods with bends to find that a tip zone set must be rather severe before it affects the performance of the rod.  I believe it is merely appearance and usually does not alter the detailed delivery and presentation of the fly.  And can be straightened with heat as needed.  If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact me.
