This page (together with the documents referred to on it) tells you about shipping, returns and warranties.
If you are not satisfied with your product, then neither are we. We really aim to provide awesome quality products at competitive prices.
Sometimes things do go wrong and sometimes problems slip through the cracks (everyone has a Monday morning now and again).
If you feel the product you've received is not up to scratch, we really want to help put the smile back on your face.
It is sometimes a little tricky managing customer expectation, we have a wide range of products each catering for a different market segment and each coming in at its own price point.
First, please check the full product description so we're all on the same page about what the product should be and what level of quality can realistically be expected. It is best to read the descriptions before ordering, but if not, at least have a look before returning it.
Also please bear in mind that there are some things which are out of our control. I'll list a few points at the end of the article which are really beyond the scope of our responsibility.
Next, please take a pic or two of the things you're dissatisfied with and send them through to us with a description. A photo of the original packaging and labels on the package will be required.
If need be, we'll arrange for a collection or ask you to return the books to us in order to get them back in our hands. This return might be at your own cost and will be refunded if the quality fault is our own.

If we are solely responsible for the mistake we'll gladly reprint the order free of charge.
If the responsibility for the mistake is shared or lies on the customer side, we'll negotiate a compromise that we all feel is fair.
We believe in open transparency and we'll do whatever we can to come to a fair resolution.
If you feel we aren't living up to these points, you're most welcome to take the point up with our leadership.
Here's a few things to be aware of that we feel is beyond the scope of our responsibility. We feel they are well covered in several articles, on our website and in some cases, general knowledge.
