RETURNS:
Kindly understand why we do not accept returns. Our items are fragile, antique, vintage, original, or one of a kind. If not properly rewrapped or reboxed, they can break on their way back.

Requests must be made within 14 DAYS of DELIVERY DATE. Requests AFTER 14 days will be refused.
When shoppers buy merchandise in person, they inspect them at point of sale. When shoppers shop online there are uncertainties. To combat this, smart shoppers will ask questions and clarify any concerns before deciding to make a purchase. We are not big box corporate retailers who can write off damaged, returned goods.
DAMAGED DELIVERY:
Kindly consistently research items us as soon as you can. Send CLEAR, close up pictures showing the damages. Include shots of ship label and any damage on outer ship box. Although either party can submit an insurance claim with the carrier for a refund, we don't mind handling it for you. But it's VITALLY IMPORTANT that you KEEP/HOLD onto damaged item with ALL packing and original box until carrier processes claim. Once approved and processed, we'll notify you when it's okay to dispose of the broken items. Carriers may request to inspect damaged items before reimbursement. If they ask to review it, you will need to bring the damaged item with packing in original box to your post office. To avoid misdirection or another loss, please write the following on the box:
