Chrispins does not extend its return policy to products shipped outside of mainland UK. This does not affect your statutory rights.
Chrispins can accept no responsibility in the event that goods are left as instructed by you without your presence at the time of the delivery. If you fail to accept delivery of goods when delivered, Chrispins reserves the right to attempt delivery of the goods at a later date and to invoice you with a further delivery charge.
Risk of damage or loss to any of the goods from Chrispins shall pass to you upon delivery.
If your delivery address is outside of the UK, you may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied once a shipment reaches your country. You must meet any additional charges for customs clearance. Please note, customs policies vary widely from country to country. We recommend you contact your local customs office for further information. Also note that, unfortunately, we may have to wait up to 18 working days (or 25 working days for overseas orders) before we are able to issue refunds or replacement items for any parcels that might have been lost or delayed during transit.

Payment
Chrispins accepts most major credit/debit cards:

  • Mastercard
  • Maestro
  • Visa
  • Solo
  • Visa Electron

All credit and debit cardholders are subject to validation checks and authorisation by the card issuer. If the issuer of your payment card refuses to authorise payment to us, we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery.
Chrispins also accepts payments by postal order. These should be made payable to Chrispins.

Cancelling an order
In accordance with the UK Distance Selling Regulations, you have a ‘7 day cooling off period’ (from the day after the goods are delivered) where you can cancel your contract with Chrispins and any monies debited will be refunded in full including delivery charges  once the item has been returned. All notices of cancellation must be given to Chrispins in writing quoting your name, address, product ordered and order code.
The procedures for cancellation are detailed below and vary depending at what stage of the order process you are at.
If you haven’t already submitted an order, you may clear the items in your shopping basket at any time prior by clicking the ‘Remove’ button next to the product ordered in your shopping basket.
If you have submitted your order and received your confirmation email from Chrispins, you can still cancel your order up to the point of despatch. Please either call our customer services team or email your cancellation marked ‘URGENT CANCELLATION’ to the Customer Service team on [email protected]. Please ensure you list your name, address, product ordered and order code on the email.
If you wish to cancel your order after it has been despatched you will need to wait until you receive the product and then follow our Returns procedure below.
 Once we’ve received notification from you that you wish to cancel an order, any sum charged by us to your credit or debit card will be re-credited to that credit or debit account within 30 days of your order, provided the goods you return are in the same condition that they were when delivered to you. Obviously this allows you to unpack and try the product, however we would ask you leave all labelling in place wherever possible.
You will be liable to any charges incurred when returning the goods to Chrispins, unless the return is as a result of an error on our part. All goods must be received within 14 days from your notification to cancel the order. In the event that you are unable to return the goods, you must make the goods available for collection upon request and within 14 days of your notice to cancel your order. This will still be at your expense and you will not be entitled to a refund of the original delivery charge. Chrispins will be entitled to charge you an equivalent amount for this collection.
 
Returns Procedure
In the run up to Christmas, we extend our 28 day returns period to allow you to return any items that you purchase for friends and family as Christmas presents after the 25th of December, but please ensure that all items are returned to us no later than the 11th of January.
Items must be unused. Obviously this does allow you to try the goods, but please try and keep labelling in place wherever possible. Chrispins retains the right to charge from the refund any repair or cleaning charges to any of the goods returned to us not in the same condition as upon delivery. Chrispins will be entitled to recover all costs, loss, charges and expenses incurred in connection with goods returned not deemed as saleable.
To return goods, simply parcel the goods in suitable packaging and return to us at the address stated on the invoice. You are advised to retain the original packaging in the event of you returning an order. Please ensure the invoice is included with the goods and that you’ve marked on it what you’re returning and why and list any items you require in exchange of those returned. If you no longer have the original invoice then please contact us with your full address, order number or customer number. If any items to be exchanged are more expensive than the original items, you will need to supply a daytime telephone number, which allows us to contact you during office hours; this is so that we can obtain payment details for the additional charges. If we cannot reach you then we will either leave a message, send a letter or email you asking for you to contact us.
Please ensure that you receive proof of posting for your own records and have adequate insurance cover should the parcel be lost, as Chrispins cannot be held responsible if your returned parcel fails to reach us. The goods will not be deemed as returned until notification is given by Chrispins.

Exchange Procedure for faulty or incorrect goods
Chrispins will be happy to exchange products that are damaged, faulty or incorrectly shipped through any circumstance that is in our error within 2 months from the date of despatch. Obviously it will help us to resolve any issues if you can let us know as soon as the problem becomes evident.

Privacy
By purchasing from us, you agree to us sending our marketing literature to you by post. However, if you would prefer not to receive literature from us then please contact us via our ‘contact us’ page, or by calling us on 01430 861889.
