What Can or Can't be Returned?

We are unable to accept a return on any of the following items

  • Books, CDs or DVDs to prevent copying of information
  • Consumables, e.g. Food and Batteries
  • Underwear
  • Cut lengths of rope
  • Gift Cards/Vouchers

We will accept any other unused items for return/exchange.

Please take reasonable care of the goods, as we are entitled to deduct an amount from the refund due to your poor handling.

Examples of common issues that can be avoided: contact with dirt, chalk dust, animal hair or carpet fluff. Damaged product packaging, ripped bags, tape or return shipping labels directly attached to the product packaging (e.g. shoe boxes).

Climbing Safety Equipment

You can return Climbing Safety Equipment to us, however we are very strict on condition. Everything must be as it was received, with all labels, tags and packaging still on the product. Ropes must not be unpacked or uncoiled. If we feel that the product has been used or is not as supplied we will refuse the return/exchange on safety grounds.

 

How to Return?

Please use our returns form where possible.

PRINTABLE RETURNS FORM: DOWNLOAD HERE (PDF)

If you do not have access to a printer, please make sure that all relevant information on the form is replicated and is clearly written on a note or letter.

Make sure that your return is suitably packaged and either in a box or wrapped in plastic and that our address is clearly visible on the outside of the package. Do not stick labels directly on product packaging and please avoid putting sticky tape on shoe boxes.

It is up to you to pay the postage to return any items to us. We recommend that you use a signed for service as we cannot accept any responsibility for parcels which go missing on their way back to us 

We have noticed many of our customers end up overpaying for return postage, in most cases a basic signed for service will suffice. Use Royal Mail Signed For rather than Royal Mail Special Delivery for example. For large or heavy items we recommend the use of an online courier. If you need any advice then please contact us.

Warranty Claim Outcomes

We are responsible for dealing with your warranty claim. We are determining whether there was a fault with the product or whether it has been worn out in a "reasonable" time frame or damaged in use. There will be scenarios where we will need our supplier/manufactures guidance.

Time you have had the goods is also a factor and can alter the outcome.

30 Days

Upon confirmation of a fault, which was present within 30 days of you receiving the goods, you are entitled to a full refund. This includes our original postage and your return postage to a maximum of £8.95

If the return postage will cost more than this please contact us so we can advise or arrange an alternative.

6 Months

We have an opportunity to prove that the fault was not there when you received the goods, i.e. that it had been damaged in use or worn out. This may require us to send on the item to the manufacturer if a fault is not immediately obvious and/or requires a more technical opinion. We will ensure this process takes as little time possible, but it will be weeks not days.

We then have the opportunity to repair or replace the faulty goods where possible and if we cannot then we will refund you the value of the item and the original postage at our standard postage rate.

A claim can be made up to 6 years after receiving your order and it is up to you to prove that the item was faulty when received. If this can be done we will accept your return.

We will ensure this process takes as little time possible, but it will be weeks not days.

After six months a partial refund is all that is required from us and the refund amount will be treated on a case by case basis.
