  • If the returning product has not been packaged properly and is damaged, then we simply cannot give you a refund. It is your responsibility to package the item correctly

6. Ensure the Correct Return Item

  • You must return the correct items. Please contact us immediately if you have returned the wrong item because we dispose of incorrect returns
  • We cannot guarantee that we will find your item and unfortunately, we will not pay for lost items. If we find it, you will have to collect it
  • If we reject your return, we will send the item back to you at your cost
  • If we can’t deliver the item to you within 30 days of its return having been rejected (for example because you are unavailable or you refuse delivery), we will consider the item abandoned and may dispose of it

When you log a return, we will arrange to collect the item from you.

8. Non-Returnable Items

  • Items you cannot return are marked as non-returnable on the product description
  • There are exceptions, such as if we delivered the wrong item, if the item arrives damaged on delivery, or if it is defective
  • If you’re unsure whether your return will be successful, please contact us and we can figure it out together
  • Examples of non-returnable items include any item that has been personalised for you or made to your specifications, or if the item was received as a gift

Dispute Resolution

If we do not accept that we supplied defective or unsuitable goods, and our customer support department has not been able to help, any customer may still take the matter up with a suitable ombud or other dispute resolution body or take legal action. The dispute resolution procedures under the CPA do not necessarily apply to all transactions with us. This policy does not exclude any other rights customers may have.
