Your order will be shipped out within 1-4 days if item is readily available.
Please allow 3-4 weeks for pre - order items to be processed and shipped as all pieces are handmade.
Do you accept refunds/exchanges?
We have a 14-day return policy, which means you have 14 days after receiving your item to request a return.
To be eligible for a return, your item must be in the same condition that you received it, unworn or unused, with tags, and in its original packaging. You’ll also need the receipt for proof of purchase.
We recommend returning items via Royal Mail Tracked to ensure the parcel is fully traceable.
Should a return go missing in transit, unfortunately we are unable to process a refund. In such cases, a claim should be submitted directly to the courier for reimbursement.
Once we receive the item, if we suspect the item has been used/damaged, we will not issue a refund and will not cover shipping costs to ship the item back to you.
If your return is accepted, we will send you instructions on how and where to send your package. Items sent back to us without first requesting a return will not be accepted.
Please note: We do NOT cover return shipping label costs or refund original shipping costs.
Exceptions / non-returnable items Unfortunately, we cannot accept returns on sale items or gift cards.
Exchanges The fastest way to ensure you get what you want is to return the item you have and make a separate purchase for the new item.
Refunds We will notify you once we’ve received and inspected your return, and let you know if the refund was approved or not. If approved, you’ll be automatically refunded on your original payment method within 10 business days. Please remember it can take some time for your bank or credit card company to process and post the refund too. If more than 15 business days have passed since we’ve approved your return, please contact us at enquiries@alhayajab.com.
