No Fuss Returns Policy - Extended to 90 days 

Full returns policy:

This is our (Tegen Online Ltd) returns policy in relation to the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000. The goods and services for sale on this site are all owned and supplied to you and by Tegen Online Ltd. Your contract as the consumer is with Tegen Online Ltd which is a registered company in Eng & Wales No: 09219512. This is not to be confused with Retail Accessories Meeting House Lane Ltd that sold goods from the physical location known as Tegen, 19 Meeting House Lane, Brighton (now permanently closed). Refunds and exchanges of goods and services purchased in person at the Tegen Boutique are to be dealt within store and are not the responsibility of Tegen Online Ltd.

Our policy covers your purchases for 90 days from the date you received your order. If 90 days have gone by since your delivery, unfortunately, we can’t offer you a refund or exchange under the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) regulations 2000. Your statuary rights under the sale of goods act are not affected.

To be eligible for a refund, your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it. Some items are fitted with a tamper-proof tag. The tag is designed to not impede inspection of your goods and must still be intact if you exercise your right under the consumer protection (distance selling) regulations 2000 in pursuit of a refund. Removal or tampering with this tag will be viewed by Tegen Online Ltd as full and final acceptance of your goods.
Please note that items such as fascinators are provided in hat boxes. These boxes form part of the item sold to you and should be returned to us in good order. If you do decide to return your item we recommend you wrap the whole hat box and fascinator in something such as a bin bag to avoid any stickers being attached to the box in transit.

Unfortunately, some types of goods are exempt from being returned. These items are; custom made items/orders, earrings, hairbrushes, gift cards, any item not in its original condition (i.e. damaged or missing parts for reasons not due to our error) or any item that is returned more than 14 days after your initial contact.

To process your return, we require a receipt or proof of purchase. After contacting us you will need to post your purchase back to us at 25a Meeting House Lane, Brighton BN1 1HB marked as 'Returns'. Click here for our returns form. We remind you that you are responsible for the goods until they are back in our possession and are also responsible for any return postage fees. Please do not send your purchase back to the manufacturer.

Refund procedure

Once your return is received and inspected, we will send you an email to notify you that we have received your returned item. We will also notify you of the approval or rejection of your refund. If you are approved, your refund will be processed as follows: The full amount paid for your goods and (if you didn't have free delivery on your order) the Tegen Standard Delivery cost will be refunded to you. Unfortunately, we cannot refund you for premium delivery options or the return postage. A credit will automatically be applied to your original method of payment, within 7 days. If you haven’t received a refund after 7 days, first check your bank account and contact your card company directly as it may take some time before your refund is officially posted by them.

If you’ve done all of this and you still have not received your refund yet, please contact us.

Credits

At your request instead of a cash refund, a credit to the value of your due refund can be applied to your My Tegen Account for you to spend in part or full at your own leisure. The credit will remain on your account for 1 year and can be used in full or part payment for items from our website.

Exchange procedure

We can replace items if they are defective or damaged as per the sale of goods act. If you need to exchange it for the same item, send us an email at info@tegenaccessories.co.uk and send your item to: Tegen Online Ltd (ref Returns) 25a Meeting House Lane, Brighton BN1 1HB.

Gifts and Refunds/Returns

If the item was marked as a gift when purchased and shipped directly to you, you’ll receive a gift credit for the value of your return. Once the returned item is received, a gift certificate will be mailed to you. If the item wasn’t marked as a gift when purchased, or the gift giver had the order shipped to themselves to give to you later, we will have to send a refund to the gift giver and they will find out about your return. 

Returning Faulty Items

In the event of receiving a faulty item, please do not send the item back to us. First, send us an email with your order number, summary of the problem and include photographs of the broken item which we can use to identify the issue and keep for our records. We will then work to organise a replacement for you, or provide you with a refund. Usually, you will not be required to send the broken item back to us so please do not return anything before contacting us. If we do need you to send the item back to us for further investigation, we will cover the cost of return postage.
