Online Purchases

We want you to enjoy your purchases but if you do not, you can return any item bought online within 30 days of receipt as long as it is unused, unopened and in its original packaging. This will be extended for gifts during Christmas.

We are happy to exchange the item for a replacement or to make a refund via the same method (PayPal or credit/debit card) when your purchase was made. We are unable to refund postage but we will send any exchanges free of postage costs.

How do I return my parcel?

We would also appreciate a note saying why you are returning the items, as we appreciate all feedback. Please let us know whether you are returning the item for a replacement or a refund.

What if my parcel/item is damaged?

We make every effort to ensure that your item is packaged well and arrives with you in pristine condition. Nothing leaves our warehouse if it not in 100% condition. If an item is damaged in transit, we will ask for photographic proof of the item to be emailed to support@collectables.co.uk. Once we see the damage and assess the picture, we will send out a replacement, if the item is then out of stock, a replacement of the same value and type will be issued (we will ask you for preferences) or a full refund processed including postage costs.

In some cases we may require the item to be returned to us for testing/reporting, if this is the case we will fully refund you once we receive the item/s, including postage costs.

What if the item is faulty?

If you have identified the fault within 30 days of purchase, then you can return the item under our normal return procedure for an exchange or refund. Make sure you let us know about the fault in advance of sending the items back, we may be able to help before you return it. We will refund any postage paid on a faulty item.

If a fault develops outside of the 30 day return period, or you are unable to return the item, contact us on 0191 499 1589 (Monday - Friday 9am to 5pm) or by email at support@collectables.co.uk before you return the item so we can discuss the fault with you. Please take extra care to read any specific care instructions provided with your purchase. We cannot accept an item returned as faulty if the appropriate product instructions have not been followed and the damage caused to the product is clearly due to misuse.

An email will be sent to the person who made the original purchase when the exchange is completed. Refunds can only be made to the original credit/debit card or PayPal address on which the gift was purchased.
