Refund policy
General Returns (Standard Policy – 30 Days)
We have a 30-day return policy, which means you have 30 days from the date you receive your item to request a return.
To be eligible for a return, your item must be unused and in the same condition you received it. You’ll also need the receipt or proof of purchase.
To start a return, please contact us at info@kaross.co.za. You must receive authorisation in writing from Kaross before any products may be returned.
If your return is accepted, we will send instructions on how and where to send your package. Items sent back without first requesting a return will not be accepted.
If you have any return questions, you can contact us at info@kaross.co.za.
Damages and Issues
Please inspect your order upon receipt and contact us immediately if the item is defective, damaged, or incorrect so that we can assess the issue and resolve it.
Exceptions / Non-Returnable Items
Certain items cannot be returned, such as custom orders or personalised items. Please contact us if you have any questions about your specific item.
We cannot accept returns on sale items or gift cards.
Exchanges
The fastest way to get what you want is to return your item (once approved) and place a separate order for the new item.
Gifts
If the item was marked as a gift and shipped directly to you, you will receive a gift credit for the value of your return once the item has been received.
European Union Legal Rights (14-Day Cooling-Off Period)
If your order is delivered to a country within the European Union, you have the legal right to withdraw from your purchase within 14 days of receiving your goods, without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period expires 14 days after you (or a third party indicated by you, other than the carrier) receive the goods.
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must clearly inform us by email or through a withdrawal request. You may use a form, but it is not required.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient that you send your request before the 14-day period has expired.
Effects of Withdrawal
If you withdraw from your purchase, we will reimburse all payments received from you, including standard delivery costs, within 14 days of being informed of your decision.
We may withhold reimbursement until we receive the goods back or proof of return shipment.
You must return the goods within 14 days of notifying us. Unless otherwise agreed, you will bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
Exclusions
The right of withdrawal does not apply to custom-made, personalised, or specially modified goods.
