Return & refunds

 

For any reason, customer can return the order, entirely or partially. Items can be returned for a size/color exchange or for refund within 14 working days from delivery of the parcel. Items must be returned in the same original conditions, neatly packed and with the return tag still attached.

If customers wish to return an item, they are to contact the Customer Service staff and request a return authorization number (RAN). The written request will have to include the order number, the code of the item(s) to be returned and the reason of return: refund or size/color exchange.

After submitting such request to the Customer Service, customer will receive an email containing the return authorization number (RAN) and the detailed instructions to be followed in order to complete the return. Customer is to write the given RAN on the return tag attached to the item(s) and on the copy of the invoice which is to be put in the box. Customer is kindly invited to accurately follow the return instructions.

 

Customer can choose between the following options of compensation:

        -  Color/size exchange:

Items can be exchanged for the same model in a different size or color, if available. Exchange with different items will not be accepted. The new exchanged item can be returned following the same procedure.

        -  Refund

In case customer requests the refund of the item(s)  returned, credit note will be issued the same day the parcel is returned to our warehouse, and only after the quality check on the item(s).
For orders made by credit card, the amount to be refunded will be visible on the next bank statement of the card. The time of processing may vary depending on the issuing company of the credit card, this time generally takes up to 20 working days.
Refund of orders made by bank transfer will be completed on the original bank account within 48 working hours from the delivery of the returned parcel, and only after receiving the bank details from customers.
Refund is made on the same currency of the original order. Possible difference in the refunded amount may depend on variations of the currency exchange rate and will not be refunded.
