At Stif we pride ourselves on our superb customer service and here is a typical example of our commitment to you, our customer.

If you make a purchase from Stif and upon receipt of the goods decide you have the wrong size, you don't like the colour, or you've just changed your mind, you can have a replacement or a full refund...your choice. So here's the deal. If you buy something from us and later decide you made a mistake, it's simple. Return the goods, unused, in the original packaging and within ten days for a full refund or replacement. Under these circumstances we cannot refund any postage charges. DVD's, Videos or food products must have the original seals intact and we cannot accept any returns of underwear.

Damaged / Incorrect Goods

In the event of you receiving goods which have been damaged in the post or that have been sent to you inncorrectly, the goods may be returned (with the original packaging in the case of damaged goods), within 14 days, and you will receive a full refund of the cost of the goods plus your return postage charges.

Warranty Returns

In cases where a product develops a fault, you should notify us as soon as possible. You must then return the faulty item to us for inspection at your own expense. You should use an insured delivery service and obtain proof of posting in case of loss or damage en route to us. When we receive the product we will inspect it and decide how best to assist you. In some cases we will fix the problem ourselves, but in most cases we will return the item to our supplier on your behalf.

When returning goods we advise you to return products by recorded delivery as we cannot accept responsibility for items lost in the post.

Christmas Time: During the festive period we appreciate that products are purchased well in advance of their receipt. To this end our returns policy at this time of year is somewhat more flexible. All we ask is that the products are returned as soon as possible after the festive holidays for exchange.

The Stif returns procedure does not affect your statutory rights as a consumer.

If you've got a question, please call the shop on 01423 780 738 or email our sales team.
