Cancellation Rights
You have the right to cancel your order anytime within 7 days, starting the day after you received your goods. If your order has been processed and delivery has been arranged, you may still cancel your order however you may be liable for any delivery costs occurred awaiting collection of goods from our premises. The costs of returning goods that have been dispatched are at your expense.
Cancellation of items on payment plans. Items held on payment plans are secured with a 20%-25% deposit, should you wish to cancel any item the deposit is non refundable or transferable. This is because we take the items off sale and by doing so loose potential sales from other customers.
On occasions we are able to reorder items upon individual requests. If we reorder an item for you that you later wish to cancel, unfortunately is it non refundable.
Returns & Exchanges
If you receive your order and it is not what you are expecting and you wish to return part or the whole of your order - you can return it back to us within 14 days of receiving the goods for a full refund* or an exchange. Any received after 14 days up until 21days will be exchange or credit note ONLY at their current retail price. Therefore in the event of returning an item during the SALE period, you will be issued with a credit note or exchange for its current value of sale (at the time we receive it back) if this is different from the time of purchase. We reserve the right to refuse returns after the initial 14 days return window.
Returns of items on payment plans. We provide the option to pay your order off up to 8 weeks due to holding stock for a lengthy period of time, any items received from payment plans can be returned for exchange only within the 14 day period as mentioned above.
Unfortunately, we are unable to provide free returns. Therefore, returning the unwanted item(s) is at your own cost. If you have ordered a large item, we will be happy to arrange a courier collection on your behalf and send you an invoice for the costs occurred if you wish to exchange or we will deduct the costs occurred if you require a refund. Once the invoice has been paid in full we can arrange the collection for you, you will be provided with full tracking details to allow you to follow the return of the goods back to us.
Please take care to package the item(s) carefully; goods must arrive in a perfect and unused condition for the refund to be issued. If you return goods that have been used we will be unable to provide a refund.
When returning your item(s), it is important that you contact us beforehand (as stated above) and ensure any items sent back are sent by a traceable delivery service.
