3. Frequently Asked Questions Before You Write
Can you review my company’s gear?
We maintain an independent editorial calendar. We do not accept paid reviews, sponsored placements, or pre-conditions on scoring. If you wish to notify our testing desk of a new release, send specification sheets to support@gearbuddha.com. We purchase equipment independently at retail if it aligns with our readership testing priorities. Learn more in our Editorial Policy.
Where can I find warranty or return assistance for gear I purchased?
Because GearBuddha is an independent review publication, we do not sell or ship physical products. For warranty assistance, return authorizations, or shipping status, please contact the retailer where you made your purchase or consult our Help Center & Warranty Directory.
How do I cite GearBuddha data in an academic paper or news article?
Journalists and academic researchers may cite our benchmark data with proper attribution and a direct source link. For media kits and official commentary requests, visit our Press & Media Kit.
