1. RETURNS & REFUNDS

There is no automatic right to return, exchange or cancel outstanding orders. All returns, exchanges and order cancellations are at the discretion of the Company. If you would like to return, exchange or cancel an order you need to email sales@kitking.co.uk in the first instance quoting:

Invoice Number

Name

Business / Company Name

Address

Email

Contact number

List of items for return / exchange or whether you want to cancel an outstanding order

Reason for return / exchange / order cancellation

Please note that the submission of details for return, exchange or order cancellation is not acceptance of your return. The Company reserves the right to accept or reject, in whole or in part any submission for return, exchange or order cancellation. If your submission for a return or exchange is accepted you will be issued with a returns authorisation number which you must include when returning your goods to us. Please see 12.2. for further information on our returns and exchange procedure.

1.1. Restocking fees

The Company offers thousands of products across a number of Brands. As a result we cannot hold stock of all products, colour variations and sizes offered for sale. The following Brands do not automatically accept returns:  Nike, Adidas, Puma, Stanno, Errea, Cantebury, Givova, Mitre, Umbro, Joma, Gray Nicholls and Hummel. Where a return is accepted by the brand the customer is liable to pay any restocking fee associated with the return. You will be notified of the restocking fee at the time your order is authorised to be returned. The restocking fee will be automatically deducted from your refund once the goods have been received back.

 1.2. Returns & Exchange Procedure

Once accepted for return you will be issued with a returns authorisation number which you must include when returning your goods to us. Customers must ensure goods are back with us within within 14 working days of receiving our returns authorisation number. All goods that are accepted for return must be in an unused, resaleable condition with tags attached and in the original undamaged packaging. Items that are not returned in a resaleable condition will not be refunded. Any items that are received after this time period will be subject to an administrative charge of £25 which will be automatically deducted from any refund issued.

Where you want to exchange a product, please contact us in the first instance in order that we can issue a returns authorisation number.  Once this has been issued we ask that you order your replacement online, in order that we can process it as quickly as possible. You can then return your unwanted items for a refund. As noted above: all goods that are accepted for return must be in an unused, resaleable condition with tags attached and in the original undamaged packaging. Items that are not returned in a resaleable condition will not be refunded.

For hygiene reasons, where items such as head guards, socks or undergarments are worn or removed from packaging this removes the right to return or exchange these items and no refund will be processed.

1.3 Returns & Exchange Costs

Except where the return is required as a result of our error, all returns and exchanges are at the cost of the Customer. The Customer has sole responsibility for ensuring goods are returned to us. We encourage all customers to use an insured and tracked service to send items back such as Royal Mail Recorded or Special Delivery.
