Shipping and Returns

PACKING + DISPATCH TURNAROUND

We are a small team and we do our very best to fulfil all orders as quickly as possible. We work with high quality print-on-demand suppliers. They have locations worldwide, so depending on where you are, your orders are printed/manufactured and shipped from the facility that can do it most efficiently for you. Our standard turnaround time is 1 – 2 business days, and 2 – 4 business days during our peak dispatch periods (we really appreciate your understanding with slight delays, during busier times!)

In the event that an ordered item is not in stock, or we are unable to fulfil your order, we will let you know a revised turnaround timeline as soon as possible.

CHANGES TO YOUR ORDER

RETURNS

When making a purchase from us, please choose carefully! We want you to absolutely adore what you order, but we cannot accept returns unless your goods have been damaged in transit or are faulty.

We do not offer change-of-mind returns/refunds.

We do not accept digital product returns/refunds.

If anything you’ve ordered arrives damaged, please contact us straight away, providing us with your order number, and a description + photo of the damage. Please do not return any items before first making contact with us. Damaged items must be reported to us within five days of your order being marked as ‘delivered’ on tracking.

Items that have been deemed damaged or faulty will be replaced for you at no extra cost. Replacements will be for the exact item/s originally ordered, or, only in the case that these are now out of stock, with the nearest possible alternative.

DELAYED DELIVERY

If you’ve waited longer than the anticipated delivery timeline listed for your order, and there’s no recent update on your parcel’s tracking (see above), we’re here to help! Please contact us straight away, and don’t forget to include your name, and order number.

We’ll personally follow up with the postal service, thoroughly investigate your tracking, and/or pass on any important updates on delivery timeframes to better understand where your order is hiding out.

Please note: after an investigation, if your parcel has been deemed lost in transit, replacement items will be dispatched at our discretion.
