REFUND AND RETURNS POLICY
() Effective date:
PART A — RETURNS POLICY
1. RIGHT TO CANCEL DISTANCE / ONLINE SALES 1.1. For goods purchased online or at a distance, you have a statutory right to cancel within days of delivery, without giving a reason, under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 ("CCRs 2013"). 1.2. We do not offer any additional return period beyond the statutory minimum. In-store purchases: there is no statutory right to change your mind about goods bought in our shop. Where we accept an in-store return as a goodwill gesture, the conditions in this policy apply. Your rights in respect of faulty, misdescribed, or unfit goods under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 are unaffected.
2. CONDITION OF GOODS 2.1.
3. RETURN POSTAGE 3.1. .
4. EXCEPTIONS 4.1. The following items cannot be returned, except where faulty: .
5. REFUNDS 5.1. Refund method: . Refunds are issued within days of us receiving the returned goods or evidence that they have been sent back. 5.2. We may reduce the refund to reflect any loss in value caused by handling the goods beyond what is necessary to establish their nature, characteristics, and functioning, as permitted by the CCRs 2013. This does not apply to faulty goods.
6. FAULTY GOODS 6.1. This policy is in addition to, and does not limit, your statutory rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, including the short-term right to reject faulty goods within 30 days for a full refund. We do not offer "no refunds" on faulty goods — this would be a misleading practice.
7. CONTACT 7.1. To start a return, contact: .
