3. Packaging returns

When returning an item for any reason, you must do so in the exact condition you received it from AWIP, with its original packaging and all tags and labels attached (e.g. shoes should be returned within the original shoe box; and seals on items including audio or video recordings or software must not be removed). Returned items are your responsibility until they reach us, so make sure they are packaged properly and can’t get damaged on the way.

You must not include in the packaging with the returned item any item not pertaining to the returned item as originally received from AWIP. You must entirely delete and eliminate all personal data pertaining to you and/or any third party which may be possibly present in an item, and de-latch any account possibly latched to the item. AWIP will not be responsible for any items erroneously contained within a returned package, or for any data breach resulting from failure to eliminate personal data contained in a returned item.

4. Refunds

If we accept your return, or if you order but do not receive an item, we aim to refund you the purchase price of the item within the period of time stated on the return page.

For incorrect, defective, or damaged items, you will also be refunded for the full cost of delivery of the returned items, once your return is processed.

If the return is not the result of AWIP error or seller error (i.e. you changed your mind or the size does not fit as expected) you will not receive any refund on delivery fees. The refund request form shall state which payment method(s) for receipt of refunds are available to you.
