Return Policy

shop242.com’s aim is to provide our clients with the best product at the best price in the most convenient manner.  However we realize there are instances when a client will not be pleased or encounter other issues with their order. That’s why we offer a convenient location on East Shirley St to return originally packaged, undamaged products to us within 14 days or sooner depending on item of purchase date.

#1 Island Plaza, East Shirley St is our only location to offer a Returns Centre.  Items will be checked thoroughly before a return is issued either:

  1. Return on credit card that sale took place
  2. Store Credit
  3. Cheque (only under discretion will this method apply)

Cash refunds are not possible and will not be carried out under any circumstances.

It is the client’s responsibility to return the product to our Returns Centre on East Shirley Street whether product was delivered, picked up or purchased in-store.  Any method of shipping  the product to us will be the expense of the client.
