Plate Exchange Policy
To ensure compatibility with our lever-release clamps, we offer a $22.50 trade-in discount towards the purchase of a Really Right Stuff quick-release plate if you already use a plate from Kirk, Foba, Markins, AcraTech, Novoflex, or Arca-Swiss. Plate exchange only for identical model.For example, if you currently own the Kirk plate for a Nikon D700, you may only exchange that plate for the Really Right Stuff D700 plate. Note that you must send us your plate at the time of exchange in order to qualify for this discount. You may not order the RRS plate first, and then expect a refund at a later date for a competitor's plate.
