Taking Care of Our Goods

You will naturally wish to inspect the products you order and try them on for size. However, whilst you are deciding whether to keep your purchases, you do have a statutory duty to take reasonable care of the goods. Therefore, please ensure you do not damage the items (or the packaging where it forms part of the goods, for example, boxed garments and gift items) and, if you wish to return anything, that it reaches us in perfect condition.
Where you have failed to take reasonable care of the goods, whether whilst in your possession or when returning them, we reserve the right to refund you in full less any amount due by way of compensation, to either repair the goods or to cover any loss.

Process Times

We strive to process all returns within 48 hours of them arriving with us, however during peak times, this can vary slightly. All returns that require outgoing consignments are sent using a 1-2 working day courier service.

Faulty or Damaged Goods

Most items are guaranteed against faults for up to 1 year after purchase (This is at the discretion of the manufacturer). This is to cover manufacturing faults and does not cover wear and tear or accidental breakages. The manufacturer needs to agree to repair, replace or credit the faulty item before we can accept your return so please contact us before returning your item. Please note this process can take up to 6 weeks.

Complaints

Any disputes or complaints you may have should be emailed directly to info@essextackleshop.com giving as much information as possible including the name the order was placed under, a clear description of the complaint or disputation and contact details. They will be investigated so a solution can be agreed as quickly as possible.
