Returns Policy
We are committed to making shopping at Young British Designers a pleasurable experience and will always strive to meet our customers wishes in as courteous and efficient manner as we possibly can. Our returns policy is very simple; if you are not completely satisfied with your purchase and wish to return an item to Young British Designers for an exchange or refund, we will do our utmost to make it as easy as we possibly can for you to do so.
Naturally, we do need to make certain stipulations: all returned items must be in new, unused and saleable condition; that means that there are no marks on the item or wear on any of the tags or labels and, in the case of footwear, the box is returned in as new condition. We cannot accept any none faulty items that have been worn, washed or tags removed. We regret that, for reasons of hygiene, earrings cannot be exchanged.
We are very happy to refund the amount you paid for the item purchased excluding the cost of postage from or to our premises. If you are returning an item you will be responsible for all costs of return, including, in the case of a return from outside the UK, any and all import/export charges, clearance fees, levies and duties.
In all cases, we strongly recommend that you use a reliable postal service or courier that will provide you with a tracking number and insure you for the value of the goods whilst in transit, as the parcel will remain your own responsibility until it reaches us.
We reserve the right to refuse a refund in the event of a customer not making all reasonable efforts to allow our postal service or courier delivery service to deliver in accordance with their and our terms and conditions. This condition also applies in the case of items which are returned to Young British Designers by the postal or courier service ('returned to sender') outside our specified returns time limit.
Please note that the customer is responsible for any costs relating to packages returned by our carriers as 'non-deliverable'. These items may also be subject to a handling charge.
Re-delivery of packages returned by our carriers as 'non-deliverable' can be arranged subject to confirmation of delivery details and prepayment of an additional delivery charge at our usual rates.
