FAQ
What if the item I ordered arrives and it doesn’t look like the photo in the store?
Oftentimes the images used on the store are digital mock-ups of what the product is intended to look like. This will typically vary once the product is created and shipped out.
Feel free to reach out to our team if you feel that the product you received differs greatly from the digital mock-up on the store. Be sure to send at least 2 photos so our team can see the difference to better help you.
What if I have requested a refund but the card I used for the original purchase has been canceled?
If the account you used for the original purpose is still open, we can refund that account (Ex: If you used a debit card for your purchase but have since canceled your debit card). We are unable to offer a refund if the account you originally made your purchase through is no longer open. We can only offer store credit in these instances. (Ex: If you made your purchase on a Credit Card that has since been canceled).
