Hoverboards have been blowing up and causing dads to fall on their butts for months now, and at least one retailer has apparently decided to throw in the towel.<br />Amazon has chosen to give full refunds to any customers who bought a hoverboard , according to U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission Chairman Elliot F. Kaye.<br />Amazon has already removed a number of hoverboard brands, including the popular Swagway at one point , from its virtual shelves and issued warnings to customers to dispose of certain brands and devices with non-compliant plugs .<br />Kaye also flagged the fact there is no safety standard in place for hoverboards, and warned that a UL mark, a sign of electrical compliance granted by a respected certification company, was not a reliable indicator of device safety.
