Delivery charges will not be refunded if you return only part of the order (e.g. you have ordered two items but only return one).  If items are parts of a set (e.g. dining table and chairs) you must return all parts in order to qualify for a refund.

A refund of £14.00 will be made if you paid the higher basket delivery charge of £18.95 and then subsequently the ‘large’ item that created the higher delivery charge was returned on ‘faulty’ or ‘mis-described’ grounds.All refunds are credited via your original payment method. If you wish to exchange a faulty product that is part of a larger order you will not be charged when we re-deliver the item to you.

Please note refunds can take 7-10 days to appear in your bank or credit card account.
