Returns Information
We've put together some guidelines to help explain our returns policies and procedures. But it's worth noting that wherever possible we will respond to your individual circumstances.
Faulty Product:
- It's an unfortunate fact of life that no matter how good a manufacturer is they'll occasionally produce a faulty product. Please see below and clause 10.1.b of our Online Shop Terms & Conditions, which explains how we handle faulty products.
Unwanted Product:
- If you're a consumer customer you can return your product within the 7 day cooling off period and you'll receive a refund (but you must take reasonable care of the product until you return it to us).
- If you're a business customer or wish to return a product outside of the 7 day cooling off period we do not usually accept a return (unless the product is faulty). We'll try to help out when we can but some products have a limited resale potential so we don't always offer a refund. We may not offer to refund the full purchase price, but if we do reduce the refunded amount we will only ever take a maximum of 30% off the refund. All refunds of this nature will be subject to a £10 fee.
- In all instances your product needs to be complete and in 'as new' condition e.g. if you have opened the box to examine the product you need to have done so without damaging or marking the product or packaging. It should be returned with the original box, packing and accessories you received with it.
- If you want a different product, the conditions above still apply. When you've returned your product, we'll ask you to place a fresh order and then issue a refund for your first order.
Incomplete or Damaged in Transit Product:
- It doesn't happen very often, but sometimes when a product is unpacked it's clearly damaged or has something missing. If you complete a returns form within 3 working days of receiving your product a quick replacement can usually be arranged.
- After 3 working days the product is classed as faulty and you'll need to follow our faulty product guidelines below.
The rules below about returning unwanted, faulty, damaged or incomplete products do not apply if you are a consumer cancelling under the 7 day cooling off period. However, we would be greatful if you would follow the 4 steps under "Returns - Unwanted Products" below when returning a product under the seven day cooling off period as doing so will speed up the returns process (and we may be able to provide you with your refund more quickly).
Returns - Unwanted Products
- Before you return any product, the return will need to be authorised. When we authorise a return we'll supply you with an RMA (Returned Merchandise Authorisation) number.
- Packages that arrive without a valid RMA number will be rejected or returned.
- Please ensure that the RMA number is clearly visible on the outside of the packaging.
- Make sure you package the product well. We cannot accept liability for any goods damaged in transit and a replacement or refund will not be offered.
- We endeavour to arrange all returns within 3 working days of the returns form being submitted to us.
- Products are inspected and tested when they arrive at our returns department. If they are found to be damaged or are not as described they may be rejected.
