Refund policy

returned products must conform to our returns policy below.

 

you have a legal obligation to take reasonable care of the products while they are in your possession, and you must return them in the same condition in which you receive them (except to the extent reasonably necessary to examine them). this includes the following guidelines:

  • products should be returned unworn (other than to try them on), unwashed, undamaged and unused with their original tags;
  • footwear and accessories should be returned in the original boxes provided and inside a protective shipping box;
  • if the product comes with a security tag this should be left on;
  • hosiery should only be returned if it is unopened and is in its original package; and
  • lingerie and swimwear must only be tried on over your own lingerie garments.

 

if you fail to comply with the above obligations (including the conditions of return), we may deduct from the refund an amount to reflect the diminished value of the product(s) up to the full price of the product(s).

 

you cannot cancel a contract for the supply of any of the following products:

  • any products that have been personalised or made to your own bespoke specifications unless such products were damaged or faulty when delivered to you or have been incorrectly delivered (see returns and refunds for customised products below for more information);
  • earrings of any type including costume or fine jewellery (see returns and refunds of jewellery below for more information); and
  • any garments or cosmetics products that have had a hygiene label or seal removed or broken.

 

returns and refunds for customised products

 

due to the nature of personalised and monogrammed products, returns, changes or cancellations are at our discretion. in exercising this discretion, we will have regard to the level of customisation and personalisation and also reserve the right to offer a store credit rather than a monetary refund. store credit is valid for 6 months from the date of issue. this does not affect your statutory rights. please note, that personalised and/or customised products may have a long lead in time before shipping, but payment will be taken at the time of or shortly after you submit your order and in advance of shipping.

 

returns and refunds for jewellery

 

we operate a special returns policy for certain jewellery products due to their value and nature. any jewellery products with a value of [$100] or more must be returned to us within [7] days of delivery and should be returned in its original packaging in the same condition in which you receive them. please note that it may take longer than normal to process refunds for such jewellery products due to their nature, as we assess any diminished value whilst within your care. 

 

returns process

we recommend that you return products in their original packaging to ensure the necessary protection when in transit. instructions for the return of the product(s) will be included with the delivery package. when cancelling a purchase and returning products to us you have two options available to you:

 

  1. depending on where you live, exercise your right to cancel under the consumer contracts (information, cancellation and additional charges) regulations 2013 (ccrs). if you choose this option you will be refunded the full price for the product(s) (subject to our returns policy) and the cost of standard delivery but will be liable for the organisation and cost of returning the product(s) to us.
  2. [use our free returns service. if you choose this option you can return the products(s) for free and will be refunded the full price for the product(s) (subject to our returns policy) but not the delivery charges.]

 

we describe these two options in more detail below.

 

(i) your cancellation right under the consumer contracts (information, cancellation and additional charges) regulations 2013 (ccrs)

 

except in relation to certain types of products (as set out above), you may cancel a contract at any time before your order is delivered and up to 14 days afterwards, beginning on the day after you received the products ("cooling-off period"). 

 

to cancel a contract, you must clearly inform us, preferably:

  • by email at info@rfiapparel.com; or 
  • by telephone on:
    • canada & usa: +1.519.591.1187 between the hours of 9am to 6pm est, monday to friday
    • uk and europe: +44.519.591.1187 between the hours of 9am to 6pm gmt, monday to friday

 

if you cancel an order (or part of an order) during the cooling off period, you must return the product(s) within 14 days after the day on which you notify us of the cancellation and comply with the returns policy.

 

if you cancel a contract between us within the 14 day cooling-off period (see above), we will process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case within 14 days after the day on which we receive the product(s) back or (ii) if earlier, the day on which we receive evidence that you have returned the product(s) to our returns address.

 

we will refund the price of the product(s) in full (subject to any deduction we are entitled to make due to your use of or damage to the product(s)), including the cost of standard delivery. however, we will not refund your cost of returning the product(s) to us, and you are responsible for those costs. we will refund any money received from you using the same method originally used by you to pay for your purchase, unless agreed otherwise.

 

[(ii) free returns pick up

 

we offer a free collection service to all customers for product(s) you wish to return except in relation to certain types of products as set out in the returns policy. you have 14 days from receiving your order to return the product to us. we strongly recommend that you book your free returns pick-up within 7 days of receiving your order to ensure that it arrives back in time. please note that we can only collect returns from the same country to which your order was delivered.
