Returns Due to Color

• Returns of products due to the different shades of color are subject to the standard return policy.  Colors produced on a screen (monitors, laptops, tablets, cell phones, etc.) vary greatly from company to company and product to product. Ambient light, brightness, color settings, and the viewing angle of a display play a major role in color reproduction. Our vendors do their best to supply us proper colors but due these variables, we cannot guarantee the exact color of a product shown in the pictures.

 

Returns Due to Material

• Returns of products due to quality of the material are subject to the standard return policy.  Quality (i.e. softness, texture, etc.) of a material is subjective.   We provide digital swatches to view the texture of the material.  Please inquire about physical swatches if the digital swatches do not suffice.  Physical swatches may not be available for all products and may incur shipping fees.

 

Returns Due to Quality of the Material

• Returns of products due to quality of the material are subject to the standard return policy. Quality (i.e. softness, texture, etc.) of a material is subjective. We provide digital swatches to view the texture of the material. Please inquire about physical swatches if the digital swatches do not suffice. Physical swatches may not be available for all products and may incur shipping fees. Wood products can have varying shades of wood and returns due to shade or grain inconsistencies are subject to the standard return policy. Distressed finishes on wood products can have varying shades and amounts of fabricated distress applied. Returns due to issues pertaining to the aesthetics of distressed woods or wood finishes are subject to the standard return policy.

 

Returns Due to Dimensions

• Returns of products due to the incorrect dimensions are subject to the standard refund policy if the actual dimensions lie within 5% of the dimensions listed.

 

Returns Due to Product Images

• Products with the main image shown as a lifestyle shot (or any images showing more than 1 item) may or may not be exactly what you will receive as images come directly from the manufacturer.
• The name of product is exactly what you will receive.  For example, if an image shows a collection of items with a Sofa, Coffee Table, and an End Table, but the name says End Table, then the product you will receive will only be an End Table.
• Many manufacturers do not provide individual product images.  Images can contain a full collection, or a staged room to show how the item will look with other pieces.
• All items are sold as individual pieces unless explicitly stated in the name or description.
• Returns due to misunderstandings related to a photo are subject to the standard return policy.
• Our customer service is here to help if any confusion exists on any particular item.

Returns Due to Lack of Photos

• Photos are a certain representation of what the product sold by the supplier. Our suppliers do their best to supply the correct photos of the products with as many viewing angles as possible but issues pertaining to missing angle views of the photos or products not matching the exact photos listed are subject to the standard return policy.

 

Returns of Artwork

• Due to the nature of artwork (figurines, statues, framed art, wall art, decorative art pieces, etc.), inconsistencies may arise from product to product. This is especially the case with custom made items or items that are made by hand. Return requests for artwork items not appearing as pictured will be subject to the standard return policy. If artwork is a special or custom order, it is not eligible for a return.

Returns Due to Product Images

• Products with the main image shown as a lifestyle shot (or any images showing more than 1 item) may or may not be exactly what you will receive as images come directly from the manufacturer.
• Many manufacturers do not send us images for individual products and products may be grouped together in the photos. All photos are grouped together and uploaded to our server based off image names supplied by our manufacturers.
• Products with multiple images of different products in the gallery may or may not include those items. This is especially true of collections that are sold separately. (some examples listed below)
  • All items in a bedroom image that shows a bed, night stands, dressers, and chests may be sold separately
  • All items in a dining room image that shows a chair and tables may be sold separately
  • All items in an outdoor set image that contain tables and seating may be sold separately
• Read the title carefully as it is most accurate with what you will receive. Call us if you have any confusion or doubts with what you may receive.
• All returns due to incorrect or misunderstanding of the product images are subject to our return policy.
