Our
Refunds Policy
This
page describes how we calculate refunds and outlines our policy on
refunds. Our refunds policy does not affect your
statutory rights. Some notes about refunds:
- When you send your

e-mail of your refund. You can expect a refund in the same form of
payment originally used for purchase within three weeks of our
receiving your return.

please contact
us for further assistance.
How
Refunds Are Calculated
Items returned because they are
damaged, defective or incorrect
If you are returning an item
because of an error on our part or because it is damaged or defective,
we will be happy to refund the delivery charges incurred in sending the
item to you and we'll reimburse your costs in returning it to us. We
will also refund the cost of other services provided to you in
connection with your purchase, where applicable.
Items returned within the
seven-day cooling off period
By law, customers located in the
European Union also have the right to withdraw from the purchase of an
item within seven working days of the day after the date the item is
delivered. For more information see Your
Statutory Rights.
Where you are withdrawing from
your purchase within the seven working day cooling-off period, and there
has been no error on our part, we will refund the cost of the item and
the cost of sending the item to you as follows:
- where you are
returning an item that was part of a larger order, we'll refund the
per-item charge for delivery that you incurred
- where you are
returning an entire order, we'll refund applicable per-item delivery
charges and the per-delivery charge that you incurred
- we will refund only
standard (Airmail) postage charges for items delivered outside the
UK
We will not refund the cost of
packaging, delivery and other services provided to you in connection
with your purchase unless you return the item to us because of an error
on our part or because it is defective.
Items returned under the 30-day
returns guarantee
Where you are withdrawing from
your purchase between seven and 30 days after delivery, and there has
been no error on our part, we will refund only the cost of the item. We
will not refund the cost of packaging, delivery or other services
provided to you in connection with your purchase.
