Return/Exchange policy

We hope that you really like your purchase. If, however, for any reason at all you are not entirely satisfied, you may return any item in its original condition (with all the original tags attached) for a full refund, exchange or credit note, provided you do so within 14 working days of our despatch date. We will then either exchange the item (for which there will be a standard contribution to postage charges of £6) or provide you with a full refund or credit note. Please note that you are responsible for items sent back until they are received by us. We therefore recommend using an insured method such as recorded delivery that will need to be signed for by us. You may also return your purchase to the shop in Chancery Lane for an exchange, refund or credit note again having popped by within 14 days after the day of delivery. To help us process your return please bring your paperwork with you. Throughout all of this your statutory rights are unaffected. Please send all returns to Madeleine Hamilton, 92 Chancery Lane, London WC2A 1DS. We do not accept any item with any indication that it was used. In such cases, the item will be returned to the purchaser.
