1.1 Made-to-order items cannot be accepted back in to stock.
If you need to cancel your made-to-order items for any reason, this can only be accommodated within 24 hours of placing the order. If a cancellation is possible after 24 hours, Office Boffins will charge a cancellation fee as it is unlikely that we could re-sell made-to-order items to another customer.

Refused deliveries of made-to-order items are not eligible for credit. Our usual refund policy does not apply to made-to-order items, which cannot be returned or exchanged unless faulty.
The above conditions do not affect your statutory rights when goods are faulty, or not as described. Goods must be returned in their original packaging, unused, unassembled and in a re-saleable condition. Credit shall not be given for goods received damaged.
The buyer shall unless otherwise stated be responsible for the cost of the return carriage of all goods returned which shall be at the risk of the buyer until actual receipt of the goods to Office Boffins. Proof of return delivery will remain with the buyer.

3.2 Returning Goods to Office Boffins
Customers have the option to return goods themselves at their own expense and risk. Please contact us to obtain a returns number and an address of where the goods need to be sent to.
Alternatively, Office Boffins may be able to arrange collection of the items to be returned, but will apply a charge for doing this. This charge will be taken off the final refund figure. Please contact us on 0203 991 1375 and we will be happy to discuss this charge with you, and look into what the exact collection costs will be for your individual case, as every order will be different depending on what items are returned, your location, etc.
It is the buyer’s responsibility to be present at the time of collection and Office Boffins reserves the right to charge more for collection, should pre-arranged collections be missed. Delivery charges that were paid by the customer on the original order will only be refunded if the customer returns the goods themselves. If there is a problem with your goods such as a fault, the goods being mis-described, or not fit for purpose, then Office Boffins will meet the costs of return.
Office Boffins also asks customers to take photographs of returned parcels and pallets before they are collected to prove the condition of goods before they were handed to the courier.
