D-Link may reject or return any product that is not packaged and shipped in strict compliance with the foregoing requirements, or
for which an RMA number is not visible from the outside of the package. The product owner agrees to pay D-Link's reasonable

requirements, or that is determined by D-Link not to be defective or non-conforming.
