Thank you for choosing Sarah Houston for your shopping experience. We are deeply committed to ensuring your utmost satisfaction and endeavor to provide a seamless and enjoyable shopping journey.
Our comprehensive return and refund policies are designed with your peace of mind at the forefront, accommodating a variety of scenarios to ensure that you feel confident and secure in your purchases. Please take a moment to thoroughly review our detailed guidelines below, which elaborate on how returns and refunds are facilitated at sarah-houston.com, providing you with a clear understanding of our processes.
- Hassle-Free Return Policy
Understanding that sometimes a product may not fully meet your expectations or needs, we have established an extended hassle-free return policy. This policy enables you to return your items within an extended period of 30 days from the delivery date of your order for any reason whatsoever. This initiative is aimed at providing you with ample time to assess your purchase and decide if it aligns with your expectations.
- Comprehensive Eligibility Criteria
We fully understand the excitement and anticipation of trying on your new dress. While we encourage you to try on your dress in the same manner you would in a physical store, it is crucial to avoid makeup, deodorant, or perfume application before trying on the garment to prevent any potential marks or damage. Excessive handling or wear during the try-on process may impact the refund amount, should the dress not meet your expectations.
- Detailed Refund Process
Upon receipt and inspection of your returned products, our team will initiate the refund process. We guarantee a full refund for all products that satisfy the eligibility criteria. In instances where an item is damaged during return due to inadequate packaging or handling, we reserve the right to offer a partial refund. This determination is made on a case-by-case basis, taking into account the extent of the damage and its impact on the item's resale value.
Guidelines for Testing and Handling
We recognize the importance of testing products to ensure they meet your needs and expectations. As such, during the return period, you are permitted to open the packaging and test the product in a manner akin to what you would experience in a traditional retail setting. However, we urge you to limit testing to what is necessary to ascertain the product's functionality and suitability. Excessive handling or use beyond basic testing may result in depreciation of the product's value, leading to a potential reduction in the refund amount.
Sealed Packages Protocol
For items that come in sealed packages, we advise that if you have doubts about wanting to keep the product, it's best to maintain the integrity of the seal as much as possible. Should you decide to open a sealed package, resealing it properly can be challenging, and as such, it may complicate the return process. We kindly ask that you include all original packaging materials when returning a product to facilitate a smoother process.
Zero-Cost Returns for Defective Products
We stand by the quality of our products, but we acknowledge that sometimes defects or damages can occur. In the unfortunate scenario where you receive a product that is not in perfect condition or has a manufacturing defect, we will cover the return shipping costs. This policy ensures that you are not out of pocket for issues that are beyond your control. Simply download and print the provided return label to facilitate the return process without incurring any costs.
Responsibility for Return Costs in Voluntary Returns
In situations where you decide to return a product due to personal preference (e.g., wrong size, change of mind), the responsibility for the logistics and cost of return shipping falls on you. We suggest using a trackable shipping service to guarantee the safe return of your items, providing you with peace of mind and ensuring that the return process is completed smoothly.
Refund Methodology
Upon processing your return, we will issue your refund using the same payment method that was used for the original transaction, unless an alternative arrangement has been agreed upon. This approach is designed to streamline the refund process, making it as straightforward and hassle-free as possible. Please allow for a processing time of 3-5 business days for the refund to be reflected in your account, although this timeframe may vary depending on your payment provider.
Step-by-Step Return Procedure
To initiate a return and secure a refund, please adhere to the following procedure:
Notify Sarah Houston:
Begin by sending a return request to info@sarah-houston.com. Include essential details such as your order number, and pictures of the received product.
Return Request Processing:
Upon receiving your request, our returns department will reach out to you within 2 business days to provide you with the necessary return address or a logistics label, if applicable.
Product Return:
You are required to return the product promptly, adhering to the indicated time frames, and no later than 30 days from the receipt of your order. If returning multiple items, please do so separately to facilitate a smoother process.
Refund Initiation:
After we have received and inspected your returned products, we will proceed with the refund process. Rest assured that all payments received from you will be refunded within 10 days from the date you informed us of your decision to terminate the contract.
Exchange Policy
If you wish to exchange an item for a different size, color, or variant, we recommend initiating a return for the current item and placing a new order for the desired product. This ensures a faster and more efficient exchange process, allowing you to receive your new item promptly.
Restocking Fees
Please note that for returns initiated by the customer, a restocking fee of 30% will be applied to the refund amount. This fee is necessitated by the costs associated with inspecting, repackaging, and restocking the returned items, ensuring that we can continue to offer high-quality products and services.
Order Cancellation Guidelines
Should you need to cancel an order, we urge you to contact us immediately after making the purchase. Send your cancellation request to info@sarah-houston.com, clearly stating your desire to cancel the order. Please be aware that you have a maximum window of 3 hours from the time of purchase to request a cancellation. Once the package has been dispatched, it is no longer possible to cancel the order. In cases where the cancellation is made at the customer's request, a payment processing fee of 5% will be retained and not refunded.
