Cancellation and returns

A pre-order is sourced just for you, which is why cancelling it works a little differently.

  • Cancelling or returning a pre-order carries a 10% service fee. It covers the sourcing, shipping and handling already done.
  • No fee if the product hasn't been found or ordered from a supplier yet.
  • No fee if you take the refund as a gift card.
