Return eligibility

Returns are considered on a case-by-case basis, especially for trade/wholesale orders. In general, a return may be accepted if:

  • The item is unused, in resalable condition, and returned with original packaging (where applicable).
  • You contact us before returning goods and receive return guidance from our team.
  • The request is within a reasonable timeframe after delivery (especially for delivery issues or incorrect items).
Business-to-business orders can differ from consumer return rules. If you’re unsure, contact our team first so we can advise the correct next steps.

Non-returnable items (common examples)

Some products may not be eligible for return due to hygiene, security, or product condition requirements. Examples can include:

  • Items returned used, damaged, incomplete, or not in resalable condition (unless delivered damaged/faulty).
  • Products missing original packaging or essential parts/accessories (where packaging/parts are required for resale).
  • Clearance/discount items or special-order items (where applicable).
If you believe an item is faulty or arrived damaged, report it immediately — faulty/damaged-on-arrival cases are handled differently than “change of mind” returns.

Reporting issues

If your order arrives damaged, incorrect, or incomplete, contact us as soon as possible so we can investigate and support a resolution.

What to send Order reference, product name(s), quantity affected, delivery postcode, and a short description of the issue. If damaged: include clear photos of the item and packaging.
Keep packaging Keep outer packaging and labels until the case is resolved. Couriers may require evidence for claims.
If you delay reporting, it may limit our ability to resolve issues with courier partners or suppliers.

Return process (step-by-step)

To keep returns smooth and fast, please follow this process:

01 Contact us first Email our support team with your order reference and issue details. We’ll confirm eligibility and instructions.
02 Pack safely Return items must be packaged securely. Include any required accessories/parts and reference details.
03 Inspection & resolution Once received, we inspect items and confirm the next step: replacement, refund, or credit.
Please do not send returns without contacting us first — unapproved returns may be delayed or refused.

Refunds & credits

Once a return is received and inspected, we will confirm whether it is approved. Approved refunds/credits follow these general rules:

  • Refund timeline: typically processed within 7–14 business days after inspection and approval.
  • Refund method: usually returned to the original payment method where applicable, or issued as a trade credit.
  • Partial refunds: may apply if returned items are incomplete, damaged, or not in original condition (where eligible).
If you need a faster outcome (e.g., replacement for urgent stock), let us know — we’ll advise the best option.

Wholesale / trade conditions

Because we serve business buyers, trade returns may include additional conditions:

  • Returns may be subject to a restocking fee depending on product type and return reason.
  • Items must be unused and in resalable condition unless faulty/damaged on arrival.
  • Credits may be applied to future orders where appropriate.
For bulk orders, we recommend confirming product suitability and quantities before dispatch to reduce return complexity.

Liability limitations

Our liability is limited to the value of the goods supplied. We are not responsible for consequential losses, lost profits, or business interruption arising from defects, delays or delivery issues.
