Fabpatterns1015 Refund, Return, and Exchange Policy

*************************
MOST RETURNS ARE HANDLED AS EXCHANGES, OR STORE CREDIT ...

IMPORTANT NOTE: SINCE PATTERNS (ANY PAPER PRODUCT), CAN BE COPIED, ALL PATTERN (ANY PAPER PRODUCT) SALES ARE FINAL (NO REFUNDS); THEREFORE, PLEASE DO NOT BUY, UNLESS YOU REALLY, REALLY WANT! THIS INCLUDES ANYONE IN ALL EU COUNTRIES, ESPECIALLY! THANK YOU!* Also, international buyers are responsible for custom, duties or any other fees, that are charged extra, by their Country.**


** NOTE: Sometimes, depending on special circumstances, a FULL REFUND will be issued. I like to be fair, and just, with my customers; and I ask for the same fairness, in return ... 7-Day Return Policy (21-Days For International) for most items will be expected ***

- Just be sure the item is in its original packaging; as shipped to you. For example, if your tool shipped to you in a nice box, you must return that box with your tool inside the original corrugated box I shipped it, to you, in. No RMA number needed! Contact me through my Etsy Shop, or my email (that will, also, be provided at shipping), and let me know any extenuating circumstances. Same expectations for my handmade products.

- Fast processing - I process most returns, with a similar (like) product, within three business days of receipt, so you can quickly get your replacement item.

- Free (handmade made) exchanges, if return item received in acceptable condition. I understand that buying online can sometimes be confusing, the only cost to you is the return (and initial) shipping, fees (e.g. insurance, etc. if I paid), and/or price difference, of the replacement product, if any. I will do my best; however, to keep the product price the same.

- Restocking fee - I do not charge a restocking fee for returned items, but return shipping, any additional related shipping cost, and/or insurance, is the responsibility of the buyer. If your item shipped with free shipping, I will subtract the cost of the initial shipping, that I paid to send it to you, plus any insurance, or additional fees, from your refund, if a refund is issued. Accordingly, if shipping was paid, by the Buyer, any other amount, e.g. insurance, or other additional fees, that I paid, to send an item, initially; will be deducted from any refund amount, if a refund is issued.

- Did I make a mistake? If you need to make a return because I sent you the wrong item, color or size, etc. (if it was specified), that you did not order, please, contact me, and ask me to look into it, to allow me a chance to rectify it.

*** NOTE: Again, sometimes, depending on special circumstances, a FULL REFUND will be issued, instead. To reiterate, I like to be fair, and just, with my customers; and I ask for the same fairness, in return.

I, Fabpatterns1015, want you to be happy with your purchase(s); after all, you are my 'Valued' Shoppers!

At this time; I prefer PayPal as the only method of Payment; and abide by Etsy, and PayPal, Policies. I, also, accept Etsy's Direct Checkout payments, and Etsy Gift Cards.

PAYMENT IS TO BE RECEIVED WITHIN 5 DAYS OF FIRST ITEM, FROM MY SHOP, THAT IS PLACED IN CART; OTHERWISE, BUYER agree that their cart purchase(s) can be removed from their cart (canceled); and that the item(s), from my shop, that they had placed in their cart, can be returned to stock; and put back among my items available for sale ... on any of my other store fronts, and sites, not just Etsy. If more time to pay is needed; please contact me PRIOR to buying, to discuss it with me. I am very open to making special arrangements, within reason. THANK YOU!

Also, I am cleaning out my Craft Room of Patterns that I no longer have any interest in making, and I am, also, selling some patterns, or vintage sewing items, that had belonged to my mom; in addition to making and selling handmade items.

Note: Most of the Patterns Are VINTAGE and UNCUT, unless otherwise stated. Some Pattern envelopes may show yellowing, and some shelf, or storage, wear. Most are like, or going on, 40 years old, or more! However, the patterns are in excellent, and use-able, condition.

P.S. Be sure to read my policies regarding shipping, refunding, returns, exchanges, and other pertinent information.

Shipping is based upon 'Carrier Rate Shipping' Current Prices (Always Subject to USPS, Fed-X, UPS, or Any Shipper used, Changes). Tracking and Delivery Confirmation will ALWAYS be attached, with shipping, to confirm the delivery. I will ALWAYS try to use whichever is the lesser shipping charge; unless the buyer have a certain preference (It will be considered; and buyer is to pay any extra cost, if required, for their preferred shipping).

· Shipping to Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, PO Box, APO/FPO/DPO, and some International Countries (e.g. Canada), may cost a little more, for some items (so please ask, and/or wait, for invoice, if you reside in either of these places).

* HOWEVER, I DO RESERVE THE RIGHT TO NOT SHIP, ANYWHERE; WHERE CONFIRMED DELIVERY IS NOT AVAILABLE!** If I make this decision; I will, immediately, provide a FULL REFUND (all shipping charges, if Buyer paid, will be included, besides just the purchase price).

**P.S. If shipping is charged, on any two, or more, items, purchased; combined shipping is provided, where possible (even, if I have to do so, as a partial refund, after purchase). I will charge only the actual shipping cost, plus any additional fees (e.g. insurance, etc.), ONLY. It is not my practice to make any additional profit off of any shipping costs. If you pay shipping, and I find that the shipping paid was more than it, actually, costs to ship, a product(s); I will, immediately, process a refund, for the difference.

. If there is anyone else interested, in an item, that is from a Country not listed, here, feel free to contact me, and we can chat.

NOTE: Duties, customs, taxes, and other shipping charges, by your Country (International, etc.) ARE YOUR responsibility!

IMPORTANT NOTE: *****Most of my handmade items are small, and light, enough to fit into an envelope; and that is how most items will be shipped. If you prefer a box, for shipping; then, please, inquire, or let me know, and wait on an invoice for a re-calculated shipping charge, prior to paying. If I do not hear from you, prior to, or immediately, after you make a purchase; it will be assumed, and agreed, that you do not mind the item being shipped, in an envelope. Thank you.

P.S. Insurance must be requested prior to shipping. For anything under $20.00, if you want insurance, and it is not in the description of the item, that you purchase; please do NOT pay, until an invoice can be drawn up, to include the cost of insurance. Any purchase that is $20.00, or over, will, automatically, include insurance; that will be paid by me, for my protection, as well as yours. To reiterate, shipping will, always, include tracking, and 'Delivery Confirmation.' On large purchase amounts, usually, $20 and over; 'Signature Confirmation' will, also, ALWAYS be required, upon delivery. Thank you.

P.S. Be sure to read my other policies regarding refunding, returns, exchanges, and other pertinent information.

P.S. REGARDING ANY PATTERNS FOR SALE, PLEASE SEE PHOTOS OF ENVELOPE BACK FOR MEASUREMENTS, ETC. Sizing has not always been the same in past eras; for example, a women's size 14 in the 1950s is more like a Size 6, or 8, now.

If a clothing pattern is not your size ... these two links will show you how to re-size your patterns:
