Returns

 

Sometimes you’ll need to return items to us. We won’t get Ratty. Rather we want this to this to be as simple as possible.

When you receive your item you have up to 90 days to change your mind and send it back to us.

We'll refund (we don’t do exchanges) all items which:

• Are returned to us within 90 days of receipt.
• Are returned to us in perfect condition for resale, ie unused, with their original packaging and with the labels attached.

Clearly the recycling of safety equipment and underwear is not in anyone’s interest and causes risk to safety and hygiene. Therefore we will point you in the direction of the manufacturer in the case of the following items:

• climbing hardware
• bike helmets
• medical packs
• emergency equipment
• underwear
• Items with mouth pieces such as hydration packs

As this is the postal system and internet we are dealing with, things may not always go to plan. With issues such as mis-delivered items and spam folders best always give us a call on 01904 409401 if you want to double check anything. That said, 99.99% of our customers are fantastic, honest and reasonable folk so please don’t be the type of person that tries to abuse our policies and spoil it for everyone else. We will spot you and happily send you on your way.

Exchanges (We don’t do exchanges)

We have a policy of not offering an exchanges service, rather we will refund your returned item while you make a fresh purchase on the website. This is for the following reasons:

• Best that you grab the product while it is live on the website. Lags in an exchange process can mean the product goes out of stock.

• Where a fault is found, we'll refund your reasonable return postage costs.
• Occasionally, if we're struggling to locate a fault, we may request a second opinion from the product manufacturer. This will take more time as they will need to inspect the item. This is often the case only with very technical items.
• Your statutory rights are not affected.

Who pays the postage on returned Items?

• If you return something due to it being unsuitable or not fitting correctly, you will need to pay the postage costs to return it to us.
