Refunds Before Dispatch
Cancel and refund any time before your order ships.
Refund & Return Policy
When refunds apply, how they’re issued, and what becomes final once your order is on its way - explained clearly so you can shop with confidence.
The Short Version
Three things to know before you buy. The full details follow below.
When Refunds Apply
Refunds are available only before an order ships or is handed over. After that, all sales are final.
A refund is available when…
- Your order hasn’t shipped yet
- Your order hasn’t been handed over at pickup
- You contact us before the next dispatch day
No refund, return, or exchange when…
- Your order has shipped or been handed over
- It’s a change of mind about purchase
- It’s a size you selected incorrectly
- An item wasn’t inspected before buying

Final Sale, by Category
Once handed over, all sales are final. Here’s what that means for each type of item we carry.
Clothing is offered new or used, as identified in each listing. Please check size, style, and condition before purchasing – returns and exchanges aren’t accepted once the item has shipped or been handed over.
Stationery is sold as new unless otherwise stated. Inspect packaging, quantities, and condition before buying. All stationery sales are final once the order has shipped or been handed over.
Electronics are used unless a listing states otherwise, and are sold as‑is without a warranty – aside from any manufacturer’s warranty specifically named in the listing. You may test an item at pickup before buying; once purchased and handed over, the sale is final.
All other merchandise is sold as‑is and is final once shipped or handed over. If anything is unclear, please ask us before completing your purchase.
Inspect Before You Buy
Because items are sold as‑is and become final after hand‑off, we encourage you to inspect merchandise, and, where possible, test electronics - before completing your purchase. If an item doesn’t meet your expectations, please don’t proceed. Checking size, style, and condition up front is the best way to be happy with your purchase.
The only exception is a manufacturer’s warranty specifically stated in an electronics listing, where named, that warranty still applies.
Refund Questions
Quick answers to the things buyers ask most about refunds.
Can I get a refund after my order has shipped?
No. Refunds are available only before an order is shipped or handed over. Once it has, all sales are final.
How will my refund be returned to me?
Approved refunds are returned in full using the same payment method you used for the order.
Do you offer exchanges?
We don’t offer exchanges once an order has shipped or been handed over. Before dispatch, we can cancel and refund so you’re free to reorder.
What if I chose the wrong size or changed my mind?
If your order hasn’t shipped yet, contact us for a refund. After hand‑over, a change of mind or an incorrect size doesn’t qualify – so please check listings and inspect items before buying.
What does “sold as-is” mean?
It means each item is sold in its present condition. You’re welcome to inspect — and, where possible, test — an item before buying, and completing the purchase means accepting its condition.
