Environmental Policy
At designist we try to use the minimum of packaging we can, and to reuse packaging as much as possible, to make the minimum impact on the environment we can. Wherever possible we try to choose products made from recycled / ethical materials and to source them from as close as possible to reduce our ecological footprint. Having said all that we also think aesthetics is important and will try to make everything look as nice as possible.
Cancellation and returns
Changing your mind:
You can cancel your order for any reason up to the point of dispatch and any payments made to us will be refunded in full ASAP, but definitely within 28 days. If you cancel an order that has already been shipped, and we have sent you an e-mail confirming this, you may still cancel your order but we will need to charge you the delivery fee.
When you purchase online, you have a statutory right to return a product (other than a special order) up to 7 days after your order has been delivered (cooling off period). We can change or cancel an order up until it is dispatched. If the order has been dispatched, you can return the product to us in its original packaging, with a printed returns form and we will organise a refund (excluding delivery fee). You must inform us of your intention to return the product by e-mail to returns@designist.ie within 7 days of making your order and must return the product to us within 28 days of delivery.
If you have placed a special order with us, which will be clearly indicated on the website, then the items are being made specifically for you. These are non-refundable / non-returnable. Of course, we aim to be reasonable, so please get in touch if you have any issues.
If it's not what we said it was:
We aim to give you accurate descriptions of all our goods, but in the event of it not being what you expected we'll be happy for you to return the items and give you a full refund. If for some reason our suppliers change an item and it appears different from what was described on the website, we aim to let you know before the item is shipped. Due to the nature of digital reproduction and screen calibration we cannot guarantee the accuracy of colour depictions of our items. Please feel free to contact us at shop@designist.ie for further information about any of our products.
Inquiries, advice, lonely hearts:
Please feel free to e-mail us with any inquiries about any of our products. We are happy to give you advice on if your auntie Mabel will like a product or not, and what makes a good wedding present but not about plumbing, electrics or anything you'd need a trained professional for. While we try to give the best professional impartial advice but can't take responsibility if your girlfriend dumps you because she didn't like a gift you bought from us.
Damaged Goods:
If your goods arrive faulty or broken please e-mail us at returns@designist.ie within 24 hours of receiving your goods. We will ask you to return the goods to us with a copy of our returns form as soon as possible and within 28 days of delivery. We will then give you a full refund including delivery.
