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 item
back to us, we'll process the returned item then notify you via 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.
- You can also view
completed returns and refunds at the bottom of an order's summary page
in Your Account. If the return and refund do not appear in Your Account
after four weeks from the day you sent us 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.
