Please return the goods, at your cost and risk, to Harlequin including the Returns Number and a copy of the original e-mail invoice or the delivery note. If the returns number is not included then delays will occur. Harlequin is not responsible for any goods being returned to us as responsibility rests with the sender. The returned goods must be received by us before any refund or exchange takes place. Goods not returned to us will not be refunded nor exchanged.

Exchanges once approved will be despatched immediately subject to stock availability. Harlequin will be under no obligation to refund nor exchange returned items received by them after 30 days from the date of signed for delivery.
In the event that the returned item falls outside the scope of this policy then the returned item will not be refunded nor exchanged.
