Returns, Exchanges & Refund Policy
Thank you for shopping with us! Because our products are printed on demand, we’re only able to offer returns, exchanges, or refunds under limited circumstances. Please review the guidelines below to understand how we handle each situation and what information you’ll need to provide when reporting an issue.
1. Wrong Size, Color, or Change of Mind
- Important: Every item is made to order. We cannot accept returns, exchanges, or refunds if you select the wrong size or color—or if you simply change your mind.
- Tip: Please double-check your selections carefully before placing your order.
2. Damaged or Defective Items
If your product arrives damaged or with a manufacturing defect, we’re happy to help. Depending on your preference, we will either reprint the item or issue a refund to your original payment method.
How to Request a Refund or Replacement:
- Contact Us: Email our support team at sales@netgate.com within 30 days of delivery.
-
Provide Details: Include your order number, a clear description of the issue (e.g., tear, discoloration, printing error), and attach clear photos (or videos, when applicable) showing the damage or defect.
- Note: If multiple items in your order have the same defect, please include them all in one photo or video to help us verify the issue.
- Outcome: Once the issue is confirmed, we’ll either send a replacement or process a refund to your original payment method. Please note that minor variations in print placement (up to 0.5") are considered normal and are not classified as defects.
3. Unsuccessful Delivery
If your package is returned to us because of an incorrect shipping address or another delivery issue, you have the following options:
- Reprint: We can resend your order after you pay an additional shipping fee.
- Partial Refund: Alternatively, you may opt to receive a partial refund.
