HOW DO I RETURN SOMETHING?

When returning goods from within mainland UK and Northern Ireland (this excludes the Republic of Ireland, EIRE and the Channel Islands):

  • In order to start the returns process, please email info@giggleemporium.com with your original order confirmation, indicating which items you'd like to return and why.

  • Once the return has been approved by Customer Services, you will receive an email from our logistics partners with a Returns Label and instructions on how to return your goods.

  • Unwanted items must be packaged in the original packaging, unused, and in a saleable condition. In the very rare case, your chosen courier damages the order upon returning it back to us, you must claim with your chosen courier. We recommend you take photos of the item prior to it being taken by the courier as proof.

  • Items not received back in good condition may not be refunded in full.

  • Refunds are made within 14 days of the item being returned to us.

  • Refunds are made back to the account you paid with. This usually takes 3-5 working days to go back into your bank account.
