Sales return reserve | We estimate a sales return reserve for expected sales refunds based on our historical experience over a rolling six-month period. If actual results differ from our estimated sales return reserve due to various factors, the amount of revenue recorded for each period could be materially affected. Historically, our sales returns have not materially changed through the years, as the majority of our customers who return their merchandise do so within the first 90 days after the original sale. Sales returns have historically averaged 1.5% or less of our gross sales. For the year ended December 31, 2013 our sales return reserve consisted of the following (in thousands):
|  | December 31, 2013 |
Sales reserve as of January 1, 2013 |  | $ | 156 |
Provision related to sales made in current period |  |  | 1,367 |
Adjustment related to sales made in prior periods |  |  | 4 |
Actual returns or credits related to current period |  |  | (1,130 | )
Actual returns or credits related to prior periods |  |  | (159 | )
Sales reserve as of December 31, 2013 |  | $ | 238 |
