Shipping & Returns
RETURNS
Our policy lasts 30 days. If 30 days have gone by since your purchase, unfortunately, we can’t offer you a refund or exchange.
To be eligible for a return, your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it.
Several types of goods are exempt from being returned. Customised/personalised stationery and print products cannot be returned due to change of mind or if incorrect artwork has been supplied. We encourage customers to check supplied artwork carefully for any spelling, grammar or similar errors, and to request a sample print before a full order if the artwork has not been printed before. We will notify you if we pick up any errors prior to printing, but this is not a guarantee or the responsibility of Words With Heart.
For artwork that has been custom designed by Words With Heart, you will be asked to give artwork approval prior to print. It is the customer’s responsibility to check the artwork carefully for any errors at this point. Once artwork approval is given, Words With Heart is not liable for any artwork related errors. Again, we encourage customers to request a sample print before a full order if the artwork has not been printed before.
In the case of a printer error for customised/personalised stationery and print products, we will reprint and ship the order immediately at no charge.
Additional non-returnable items:
* Gift cards
* Downloadable stationery products
To complete your return, we require a receipt or proof of purchase.
Please do not send your purchase back to the manufacturer.
There are certain situations where only partial refunds are granted: (if applicable)
* Any item not in its original condition, is damaged or missing parts for reasons not due to our error.
* Any item that is returned more than 30 days after delivery
Refunds (if applicable)
Once your return is received and inspected, we will send you an email to notify you that we have received your returned item. We will also notify you of the approval or rejection of your refund.
