Non-Returnable Items & Exceptions:
Certain items are excluded from our general return policy due to hygiene, safety, or their nature:
- Custom-Ordered or Personalized Items: Products that have been custom-ordered, engraved, or personalized cannot be returned unless there is a manufacturing error. We would prefer to fix any issue rather than have a return.

- Once the defective or incorrect item is received and inspected, we will promptly send a replacement or issue a full refund, including original shipping costs if applicable.
Refund Processing:
- Once your return is received and inspected, we will send you an email notification confirming the status of your refund.
- If approved, your refund will be processed, and a credit will automatically be applied to your original method of payment within 5-10 business days, depending on your bank or credit card company’s processing times.
- Original shipping charges are non-refundable unless the return is due to our error.
Exchanges:
- If you wish to exchange an item for a different size, color, or model, please follow the return process to send back the original item for a refund, and then place a new order for the desired item. This ensures the fastest processing of your exchange.
