DELIVERY POLICY

The Rake works to deliver your purchases worldwide. We use the quickest courier method possible to unite and delight you with your purchases but delivery times may vary by location. For delivery costs, please select your destination on the check-out page.

Please note that some products are dispatched directly by manufacturers and will arrive in a separate shipment from the rest of your order.

Due to international trading agreements and local customs restrictions, we may be unable to ship certain items to your location.

All orders are subject to acceptance and availability.

We reserve the right not to accept your order for any reason to anyone at any time at our sole discretion. We will not be liable to you or any third party by refusing to process a transaction or unwinding or suspending any transaction after processing has begun.

Evert effort is made to make sure details on our website are accurate, however, we may discover an error in the pricing of products, in which case we will let you know as soon as possible. We shall be under no obligation to accept or fulfil an order for a product that was advertised at an incorrect price and reserve the right to cancel such an order that has been accepted or is in transit. If you order a product that is priced incorrectly for any reason, we will email or telephone you to inform you that we have not accepted your order and/or that the relevant part of your order has been cancelled. If you have already paid for the goods, we will refund the full amount as soon as we are able.

Please note alcohol and other drinks are not for sale to people under the age of 18.

RETURNS & REFUNDS POLICY

What is your returns policy?

If your purchase isn’t quite right, you can return it for a refund by notifying us within 14 days of the date your order was delivered, using our free returns service. Please note, all products within an order that are requested to be returned must be returned together, and the goods have to be collected within 5 days of notifying us.

Simply email us at shop@therakemagazine.com to arrange a suitable time for our courier to come to your office or home and collect the package and return it to us. Please note, in some instances, we are unable to offer refunds or exchanges. This includes personalised and perishable products, as well as products that have had their protective seals or strips removed or damaged. This also includes underwear, Made-To-Order products and magazines and books. This does not affect your statutory rights.

If you would like to exchange an item, you will have to place a new order for the product you would like and then return the item would not like to keep. The 14-day return window for each product begins when each product has been delivered to your address. Note shipping fees will be charged again on the second order.

Will shipping fees be refunded on return?

Shipping fees will be excluded from your refund, unless the item is faulty or if you received the incorrect item.

Will taxes & duties be refunded on return?

We are only able to refund the VAT charged for the returned items at the checkout, unfortunately, we won’t be able to refund any tax or duties charged by local governments at the customs clearance. Certain countries operate schemes to reclaim any local tax and duties if you return goods and will require a specific application by yourself to your local government or authority. We are unable to assist in you reclaiming any local tax or duties.

Can I return my customised or made-to-order item?

Due to the nature of customised and made-to-order orders, and the fact that they have been specially created for you, we will not be able to accept returns on these products.

How do I prepare my package for a return?

You can send your items back in any safe and secure sealed package, but the items must be protected and therefore undamaged upon return to us. Ideally, the package is returned in the box that it was sent in. Note any return that is not sent in a secure and sealed package, with the garment received in a new and unused condition, with its original packaging, will result in the return being refused and the package/s sent back.

Please note that items need to be returned to us via our own service. You can return them using any secure means, but we may not accept liability and are unable to refund any associated shipping costs.

When will I receive my refund?

Refunds are issued via the original payment method and will normally appear within 10 business days after the products have been received and quality checked by our operations team. Note the refund timing also depends on the processing time of your payment provider.

We accept the following payments methods:

• Visa
• MasterCard
• American Express
• Visa Electron
• PayPal
• Apple Pay
