Returns
This section should be read in conjunction with our Returns policy.
According to The Consumer Contracts Regulations, the consumer is protected by several safeguards and entitlements. The Cartridge People Ltd is committed to complying with this directive. As a consumer you are entitled to a fourteen-day 'cooling-off period*', whereby you are entitled to return your purchase to us for any reason** within fourteen days of receipt of the goods, and be refunded the price that you paid, minus any additional charges for expedited shipping. This safeguard applies only where the products in question are unopened, unused, undamaged, and returned to us in full saleable condition. In instances where items have been handled more than necessary, The Cartridge People Ltd reserves the right to apply a deduction to the refund. For the avoidance of doubt, the extent of acceptable handling is the same as it would be if you were assessing the item in a physical store.
Please note that refunds will only be issued for returns items once the good have been received in our warehouse.
* The cooling-off period only applies to B2C clients. B2B clients have no such entitlement according to The Consumber Contract Regulations.
Items that fall outside the 14 day cooling-off period will be considered on a case-by-case basis. The Cartridge People Ltd reserves the right to decline to accept returns and/or to levy a re-stocking fee.
