Generally all products at Living Culture have at least a 12months warranty. Contact us within the warranty period if you encounter any problems associated with the product.

To return a product, the customer needs to cover their postage and we will cover ours. A faulty item must be returned within 7 days upon a mutual agreement on the return by both parties.

Upon return, Living Culture or the local distributor/manufacturer will test the faulty unit and if found to be faulty, will repair or replace the damaged or faulty goods. If the product cannot be repaired or exchanged for a similar item, a store credit or a full refund (including shipping) will be provided.

Refunds will be processed via the method of payment; refund to credit cards will incur a processing fee deduction on refunds. Please be aware that bank clearance times vary and there may be some delay before funds appear in your account.

All warranties are considered void in the case of unauthorised repairs to the item(s).

Once the payment is confirmed, your order cannot be cancelled and refunded for a change of mind.

However, if the order has not been dispatched by the time we are contacted, we will void your order and issue a full store credit to your Living Culture account. If the order has been dispatched, you are welcome to return the item to us within 7 working days (starting from the first day you receive the item) for a full store credit, minus any shipping costs. The return of the item will be at the cost of the buyer. Please note all store credits are valid for 6 months from the date of issue.

The item(s) must be returned to us in an “As New” condition with all internal and external packaging, accessories, swing tags, labels and manuals. When you return the item to us, please attach a piece of paper with our shipping address on it rather than writing on the box.

If you cancel the order due to a change of mind and we will have to refund you any payments you have made, we will deduct a Restocking Fee to cover our reasonable costs arising directly from the agreement. The Restocking Fee is 5% of the total price of the Product (excluding any delivery charge). That is intended to cover:

(i) The loss in value of the Product between the date of your transaction and the date of cancellation;

(ii) Our reasonable costs incurred in storing and insuring the Product while the agreement was in force; and

(iii) Our reasonable administration costs in relation to your transaction.

If there are items missing from your order: You must report it to us within 5 working days of receiving the parcel; we will investigate with the packer at our warehouse first, and send you the missing item if it is proved to be our mistake. We bear no responsibility for items not reported as missing in the five working days following delivery.

Please note that if you have ordered multiple items from us, orders may have been combined into the same box, so please check all packages thoroughly before progressing.

Occasionally orders may be shipped as separate packages, the boxes will be labelled as Part 1 of 2 etc., if any boxes are missing from your delivery please contact us immediately.

The item I ordered has not been delivered: If your item did not arrive within a reasonable timeframe after being dispatched, the first thing to do is to check the tracking number you received on the Couriers website and if required call their customer service to log an investigation for your package.

If you are still unable to get any further information please contact us within 7 working days of when the parcel should have arrived.

If the "track and trace" on your order shows the status as delivered, but you’re unable to locate it, please get in touch with the courier company immediately and log an investigations for the missing parcel. Also drop us an email and we will start follow-ups on the investigation with courier on your behalf. The courier will then proceed through an investigation process; this can take up to 7days. Once we have a response from them we will resolve the issue for you.

Unfortunately, neither Living Culture or courier are able to refund or replace items that have been lost, damaged or stolen after being delivered to your property. If you are concerned about leaving your items un-attended we recommend using the “Signature Required” option we offer during checkout.

I've had my item for a period of time, but it no longer works as described but is under warranty: We will assist where possible with the repair or replacement of faulty items on a case by case basis. We will try to replace the product in most cases provided we have stock. If not then we can process a refund but this will be minus the original shipping cost.
