TERMS AND CONDITIONS

The Return Policy below applies to standard returns only. If there is a problem with an item you have received or if you believe a product has developed a fault, please get in touch with us by email to [email protected]. We will make every effort to resolve the issue as quickly as possible for you.

 

Return Policy

If you receive an order and find you have changed your mind or the item just isn’t right for you, don’t worry. Goods can be returned for a refund within 14 days from the date of purchase (subject to the product exclusions outlined below). 

We are unable to offer exchanges on unwanted items, however, if you wish to purchase a different item, simply hop onto our website and place a new order separately. This will be processed and dispatched as quickly as possible.

Goods must be returned in an unused, re-saleable condition, with their original packaging, and all labels still attached. They should also be securely packaged in a sealed box, to ensure the contents are protected during transit. Our Returns Team will review all items to ensure they meet the criteria outlined in this Returns Policy. If an item is returned outside of our Returns Policy, we may be unable to process a full refund. We will contact you in such circumstances. 

 

All refunds will be issued to the original payment method on the order within 5 days of receipt at our warehouse.

Return FAQs

1.  Can I return my item for an exchange?

We are unable to offer exchanges on unwanted items, however, if you wish to purchase a different item, simply hop onto our website and place a new order separately. This will be processed and dispatched as quickly as possible.

2.  Can I return multiple orders together in one parcel?

Orders should be returned individually. We kindly ask that you avoid returning multiple orders inside the one parcel as this may cause issues with the return. If, however, you do wish to do so, please ensure you include a note inside the parcel with the order reference for each item you are returning. If there are any issues with your return, we will be in touch. 

3.  How much is return postage and who pays for it? 

Postage on standard returns is non-refundable, however if your item is being returned as a result of our error (damaged, defective, wrong item etc.), we will refund standard postage costs. If there is a problem with your item, please contact us and we will make every effort to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.

We recommend using a tracked courier service. Return postage is non-refundable and Thame Cycles cannot be held responsible for damage or loss incurred during return transit.

Yes, all goods must be returned in an unused, re-saleable condition, with their original packaging, and all labels still attached.

8.   Can I return an unused item if it is over 14 days since the order was placed?
