Refund and Returns Policy

Introduction

As a consumer you have the right to return an item that is either faulty or not up to your standards within 7 work days to receive a full refund.
Should your item be faulty and you would like to claim an exchange or repair please be aware that there are specific guidelines to this process as described under the Warranty/Exchange process in the appropriate section below.

EveryMonday would like to make this process as simple and efficient as possible.

Please read the below guidelines very carefully, as these guidelines tie in with our Terms and Conditions and are bound by this policy.

Refunds

• Returning of a brand new item – This means, you have purchased a brand new item from everymonday.co.za and would like to return it, the item MUST still be sealed in the original packaging and in the same physical condition as you have received it. Opened items will result in an item being secondhand when returned and you will have to pay a 15% handling fee because we can not sell the item as new again to another customer and will result in us having to sell the item for less than the original price of a brand new item.
• Returning of a secondhand item – Item must be returned in the same condition as you have received it, any damages/scratches or neglect of the item on the consumer’s side will result in refund being denied by EveryMonday.
• Refund timeline – After receiving your item back at our office, we will assess the item to make sure it is in the same condition as advertised on our website, should there be any discrepancies you will be contacted either via email or phone call within 3 working days of receiving the item.
• Applicable fees – As stated in item 1 under the refunds policy, you will receive a full refund/credit minus the applicable fees as stated in the paragraph below, if you’re item is in the same condition as when it was sold to you, if the item is new and was opened or used, a 15% handling fee will be deducted from the purchase price, this is a non negotiable condition of the sale.
• Merchant fees – With every purchase there are fees applicable to complete the transaction, our payment merchant charges us 2.5% on the sale amount, this fee is non refundable and the consumer/purchaser will be liable for this fee, it will automatically be deducted from the refund amount.
• Shipping fees – Shipping fees are not a refundable item, you will be charged the exact same amount for the return shipment as what you have paid to get the item shipped to you when the initial purchase was made. Should you live in the Gauteng area, you are welcome to return the item directly to us to avoid paying another shipping fee charge.
  This will have to be communicated to us in writing via email. The contact email address is info@everymonday.co.za 
• Refund process – Please contact us within 7 working days if you would like to claim a refund, send an email to info@everymonday.co.za and you will be contacted on the same business day. Emails coming in after 4pm will only be replied to on the following business day.
  
  We will then book the courier to collect the item for you, do the assessment, ask for your banking details and process the refund within 3 working days after we have received your item. Your refund will be made by means of Electronic Funds Transfer, a valid account needs to be provided by the customer. We will not be held liable for incorrect information in this regard so double check your details before sending it to us for a refund.
  
  Refunds will be processed from First National Bank and can take up to 3 business days to reflect after payment has been made. Proof of payment will be forwarded to your email address provided. 

Exchange Process

The exchange process is in place to make sure that if your item is not as advertised or faulty, we will exchange it for a similar condition item given that we have received your exchange claim on email within 7 working days of the initial purchase.

The exchange process will only happen as soon as your item is delivered either personally or via courier. Should you want to exchange your item for another item because you made a mistake at the time of purchasing, the item will have to be in the exact same condition as per time of initial purchase, if you have opened a new item you will be liable for the 15% handling fee as described in the refund policy market.

Refunds, Section 1: Returning of a brand new item

The exchange will only be applicable if we have stock of the exact same condition and specification product.

Should we not have the exact same item in stock, we will offer you a similar / or close to specification item that we have in stock, and should you as the purchaser agree to this exchange the difference in price will have to be paid by the consumer if the item costs more than the initial purchase price, if the item cost less than the original purchase price you will be eligible for a refund of the difference from EveryMonday. The refund process as per point 5 in the refunds policy will be applicable. Please take note of these time lines as this is a non negotiable process.

The exchange will be processed within 3 business days after we have received the item in question.

Should we not have an item that you would like to exchange for the refund policy will come in full effect.

Please note that we will not hold you accountable for shipping fees on faulty items.
