ADDITIONAL TERMS:
Customers are recommended to order at least 2-3 days before the item is needed. Some items are non-refundable, like, for example,hosiery, stage make-up or underwear. This is due to hygiene reasons and such items are dispatched to you the customer, in sealed packs, and if the seals are broken or opened upon return of these items,then they cannot be refunded and are unreturnable to us.
We have a goodwill policy of helping customers with return postage.We often pay 30% ( in cases where we have not charged postage for dispatches) and up to 100% of the return costs. We pay this upon return of the item first (where the customer initially pays the return cost, and we reimburse it) . The only exceptions to this are:
a) if the items being returned are not presented to us in a saleable, decent condition (for instance, if the package is torn and the items have been badly damaged as a result)
b) if the items have, in fact not been returned at all
c) if there was a failure on the customer's part to enter his or her company's or individual's correct postal and customer details at the checkout gate (time of ordering)
d) we do not imburse delivery costs at weekends - only from Monday to Friday inclusive, during any week
e) If the items are in dispute, beyond our control , we cannot refund them. A reason will be provided to the customer on receipt of the returns form.
Postal fees are deducted from any refunds for items not returned to us within 14 days. We aim to make refunds inside 14 days of your item being returned to us. Any returned items not displaying the information required on the returns form will cause an unavoidable delay in the returns process.
The cancellation period starts on placement of your order and ends 14 days from the receipt of your goods. If you, as the customer, change your mind after purchase, there is no automatic right to return the goods to us, but we do listen to you and are willing to offer alternatives or refunds, or refunds as appropriate.
