Our vouchers cannot be used alongside other offers, vouchers, sale items, discounted items.

If an order for several items are purchased and subsequently part of the order is returned for a refund, the refund amount will be calculated on the price the items would have cost with no discount applied to them.

For example: Discount code gives 10% off £100

4 x items purchased at £25.00 = £100.00 with discount, paid £90.00

3 x items returned at £22.50 = £67.50

1 x item kept by customer full cost £25.00

Difference in price £25.00 – £22.50 = £2.50

Refund amount = £67.50 – £2.50 = £65.00
