RETURNS & REFUNDS POLICY

Last updated: 29 January 2026

At Assassin Goods Ltd, we want you to buy with confidence and clearly understand how returns and refunds work. This policy explains your statutory rights under UK law and our additional voluntary returns offers.

Please inspect your order on delivery and report any damage or missing items within 48 hours.

1. Your Statutory Rights (UK Customers)

Nothing in this policy affects your rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 or the Consumer Contracts Regulations.

Under UK law, you have the right to:

  • Cancel your order within 14 days of receiving your goods for any reason
  • Return the goods within 14 days of cancellation
  • Receive a full refund for goods that are faulty, misdescribed, or not fit for purpose

Where goods are returned under statutory cancellation rights, you are responsible for return shipping costs unless the item is faulty.

Standard statutory returns allow inspection of goods only. They do not permit extended use beyond what is reasonably necessary to assess the product.

2. Delivery Inspection & Damage Reporting (Site-Wide)

All customers must inspect their order immediately upon delivery.

Any of the following must be reported to us within 48 hours of delivery:

  • Transit damage
  • Visible defects
  • Missing items or components

Reports made after 48 hours will be assessed on the basis that the product was delivered in good condition, and any damage is presumed to have occurred after delivery, unless the issue relates to a fault covered under the Consumer Rights Act.

3. Site-Wide Returns (Summary)

For products not covered by the 45-Day Home Trial, the following standard returns apply:

  • Returns accepted: Within 28 days of delivery
  • Condition: Unused, unassembled, in original packaging
  • Return shipping: Paid by the customer (unless faulty)
  • Faulty items: Free return and full refund or replacement
  • Refund processing: 5–10 working days after receipt and inspection

Change of Mind Returns

If you change your mind, you may return your item within 28 days of receiving it, provided that:

  • The item is unused and unassembled
  • All original packaging is included
  • Packaging is undamaged and suitable for resale

If these conditions are met, we will issue a refund excluding original delivery charges and any applicable repackaging costs.

⚠️ Items returned in a condition unsuitable for resale may be subject to a repackaging fee of £3–£60, depending on size, weight, and condition.

Refunds

Once your return is received and inspected:

  • Refunds are processed within 5–10 working days
  • Funds are returned to the original payment method
  • You will receive email confirmation once processed

Refused or Undeliverable Deliveries

If a delivery is refused or returned to us due to incorrect or incomplete address details:

  • Return shipping costs will be deducted from your refund
  • Any applicable handling or carrier fees may also apply
