Can I return it if there’s nothing wrong with it?
You have the right to cancel your order at any time up to 14 days from receipt of goods. You must notify of us of your intention to cancel, by contacting our Customer Service team.
You just need these 3 things:
- Your proof of purchase
- The item should be unused, in its original packaging and in a re-sellable condition
- Any free items that came with your product unused and in a re-sellable condition
And a few more things to note… There are some things we can’t do returns for unless of course they’re faulty. Oral based products, once used cannot be returned for hygiene and safety reasons unless defective. E-liquid is classed as a perishable product and cannot be returned unless defective.
If the item or the packaging has been handled excessively to assess the goods (ie. more than you would if you were buying it in a shop) we reserve the right to reduce the amount of refund to you
During the returns process, we might ask for the product serial number or similar, to check the item was actually supplied by us.
Limited Warranty
Please be aware that e-cigarette kits are made up of different parts and are therefore subject to different warranty durations.
- E-cigarette kits and devices (that use external batteries) have a 6-month warranty starting from the date of purchase.
- Batteries and mods have a finite life span dependant on usage. They each have a 60-day warranty starting from the date of purchase. This warranty is void if the unit has been broken due to mishandling and/or tampering.
- Clearomizers, atomizers (also known as coils or heads), pods and tanks are consumable items and are not covered under warranty. However, if they are deemed to be Dead on Arrival (faulty on receipt) and we are notified within 7 days of you receiving them, we may replace them at our discretion.
- Some tank parts regardless of make or capability are likely to wear out over time. Those parts need to be regularly maintained and/or replaced to achieve good working order of the product.
- Coils, replacement pods and tanks have a variable lifespan. This can be anywhere between 2-14 days, but this is heavily dependent on liquid, power and usage.
- E-Liquids are a consumable item, sold in sealed bottles and are not covered under warranty. The only exception to this rule is in the case of a manufacturing fault, or shipping error on our part, in which case we will replace them.
- Chargers, charging cases, leads and wall adaptor plugs are covered by a warranty period of one year (12 months) from the date of purchase. If an item has an electrical fault such as, but not limited to, failure to emit charge, we will replace it.
- Disposable E-Cigarettes - Please note that you are responsible for the costs of returning any faulty disposable that has been opened and used. If your product is deemed dead on arrival, we will be happy to refund your shipping cost. All products will be checked by our Quality Control team to verify the DOA status and ensure they have not been used.
We reserve the right to change our warranty conditions without notice. We also reserve the right to refuse items returned to us which do not fulfil our stated requirements.
Please note, warranties are not guarantees and only cover manufacturing faults.
