How Try Before You Buy Works

1) Try this product for 5 days with our exclusive Try-Before-You-Buy option before making a final decision. Just click the Try-Before-You-Buy button below!

Five days to try and put gear to the test for only 10% of the product's retail price! That means you can now try a product first before committing to the purchase. If you decide to keep it, the remaining balance will be charged to your selected payment method. If you decide it’s not quite right for you, return it and feel good that you saved yourself from "buyer's remorse" and are now closer to finding your perfect fit.

(Important notes: The 10% “Try Price” will show once you enter checkout. The full purchase price will show in the cart. Our "Try" option is currently only available for store pick-up. We hope to offer shipping options for "Try" items in the near future.)

2) Different than Renting.

With Try Before You Buy, you receive a brand new product – that no one else has used - and if you decide to keep it, it will be the one that's yours!

3) Delivery times vary by item, but most take a couple weeks to arrive.

Once you place a Try Before You Buy order, we place an order for that item with the manufacturer. As soon as it arrives, we deliver it to you. If the item you selected will take longer than this typical delivery time, we will notify you immediately.

 

Try Now for 5 Days
Pay Only 10% Today
Your selected item has been added to the Cart and reflects the full price of the item. The "amount due" will update to 10% of the item's full price when you reach Checkout. Upon completion of checkout, you will only be charged the "Try Now" fee of 10% of the retail price. The remaining balance will be set as a temporary authorization hold on your card and will only be applied to the order if you decide to keep the item.
Try Now Period
Your "Try Now" period of 5 days starts when you have taken delivery of the item, usually within 1-2 weeks of placing your "Try Now" order.
Love it and Keep it; Still not sure, Return it.
Pay for what you keep
If you love your "Try Now" item, simply keep it and we'll charge the remaining balance for the item that we had on temporary hold. Don't love it? Simply return it. (Note: By placing a Try Before You Buy order with Looking Glass, you are responsible for returning any unwanted items. For store drop-offs, the item must be returned no later than one day after your 5-day "Try" ends. If you're shipping the item back, it must be sent with tracking information sent to us no later than one day after your 5-day "Try" ends and are responsible for the Return Shipping fee.
