Returns/Exchange Policy
You may return or exchange unwanted products within 20 days of shipment date, under the following terms and conditions:
- All returns or exchanges must be pre-approved by Christmas Designers, Inc and a Return Authorization Number (RA#) must be issued and clearly indicated on the outer packaging of the returned product along with the customer's return address. We are not responsible for refunds denied for products returned without authorization or RA#. Contact customer service or download the Return Authorization Form. Complete the form and email or fax it for approval and to obtain the RA#. The shipping address for returning items is determined by what item you returning and which warehouse it shipped from. Upon issuing an RA#, we will also inform you of which warehouse the product needs to ship to.
- Original shipping charges plus a restocking fee of 20% will be deducted from the refundable cost of products that are not being returned due to manufacturer's defects or shipping errors on the part of Christmas Designers, Inc. This includes all returns for ordering too much product, ordering the wrong product, dislike of the product once it is delivered, etc. A restocking fee is generally not charged for exchanged products so long as the balance of product exchanged meets or exceeds the value of the original purchase and that items are returned unused and in their original packaging. Return shipping must be prepaid at the customer's expense.
- Product orders totaling over $1,000 are not refundable. We strongly encourage you to request samples of the exact style, grade and color of the product(s) you are interested in before placing large orders to ensure the products meet your specifications.
- Returned or exchanged products must not have been used, installed or modified in any way. They must be in their original cartons and shipped with sufficient packaging material to ensure they are resalable. All manuals, warranty cards and ancillary items must be in saleable condition.
- Upon receipt and review by our shipping department, certain items may be designated non-returnable due to returned condition.
Return/Exchange Process
To return or exchange items, please complete a Return Authorization Request Form and fax to 954-973-0914 or e-mail a completed copy to sales@christmasdesigners.com. Upon review, we will contact you with the RA# and provide you with any further instructions. DO NOT RETURN THE ITEMS UNTIL YOU HAVE RECEIVED THE RA#. In order to receive your qualified refund or exchange, the items must be received at our warehouse within 15 calendar days of issuing the RA#.
