Why are returns not free?
As a small business, the cost of return shipping is so large we have often had to consider whether we can afford to ship back and forth to customers internationally. However in order to maintain a relationship with our international customer base, we felt the best option would be to help share the cost of returns. This allows us to continue serving international customers without running at losses on the cost of shipping.
The majority of up-front initial shipping costs are free of charge when you place your order, as we offer free shipping options over certain order value thresholds.
Therefore, we felt that helping to split the cost of return shipping would be a fair solution. This means we contribute towards the shipping cost, lowering the cost to you. They are not free, but they are considerably lower than if you were paying for return shipping directly.
In order to reduce the cost of return shipping we recommend opting for a mailing bag to reduce the size of the parcel as much as possible.
