A valid form of ID must be shown in order to collect your package. If you are not the addressee but wish to collect a package on their behalf, please see the information provided by your local postal service.

This sum includes the price of the item(s) in your order, VAT, and any delivery charges.

The prices displayed on careofcarl.com are displayed in euros (€) and this will therefore be the currency in which your purchase is processed.

If the fourteenth day occurs at the weekend or coincides with a national holiday, the return period will be extended until the next working day.

If the returned items show signs of having been handled more than what could be deemed strictly necessary to assess their form and function, the customer is liable for any decrease in the item’s value. The amount of such a decrease will be determined by Care of Carl AB.

Your right to cancel is dependent on the items being returned to us together with their original packaging and labels. You have the right to assess the items you receive, but this right will be compromised if any seals have been broken or labels removed.

The right to cancel does not apply to underwear.

In cases where the returned item is missing its case, packaging, instruction manual or certificate of authenticity, Care of Carl AB reserves the right to reject the return request.

Items delivered directly to the home should be returned in the same way as all other delivery methods.

Exchanges: Items to be exchanged can be returned at no extra cost, provided that the return label included with your order is used. 'Exchange' in this context is understood as the purchase of a new item for each returned item.

The quickest way to exchange an item is to return the original item and place a new order.

Returns: You may return your items to Care of Carl AB free of charge for a full refund within 14 days. The 14-day period begins from the date you take delivery of your order. Use the returns form and return label included with your order.

In cases where the wrong item has been delivered, you may choose between a replacement item or a full refund.

All returned items should be carefully packaged so as to avoid damage during transit.

Returning items to Care of Carl AB is undertaken at the customer's own risk.

Faulty items: If you wish to return an item due to damage or production faults, we will assess each item manually and, in some cases, may ask you to send the item to us for inspection. The standard period in which you can make a claim for a faulty item is three (3) years. Any fault should be reported to us within a reasonable timeframe, that is to say as soon as it is discovered or can reasonably be expected to have been discovered. This is understood as being within two (2) months of the fault being found.

Faults discovered within six months of delivery are to be considered as production errors unless proved otherwise. If the fault is discovered after more than six months, the burden of proof is on the customer to show that the fault is not the result of normal wear/usage.

In the first instance, we will attempt to repair the fault. If this is not possible, we will provide you with a replacement product, on condition that the reported fault has been confirmed by us.

If it is not possible for us to provide you with a similar product, you reserve the right to demand a full refund.

Under normal circumstances, refunds will be credited to your account within 14 working days of our having received and accepted your return request. Refunds may only be credited to the same account and payment method used at the time of purchase.

Due to some customers showing abnormal purchasing behaviour and a way to take advantage of our free return policy, we have introduced the “Fair Use Clause”.

When we identify a purchasing pattern which we see as abnormal and unacceptable, then we will from case to case decide whether a customer will be denied from purchasing from us. This can happen due to returning products that are no longer in a new condition or don’t correspond with what was delivered. With exceedingly many purchases and an abnormal return percentage, then future purchases may be denied or alternatively be subject to a return fee of €10. If you are affected by this or believe that we have made an incorrect judgement, you are welcome to contact us for discussion.

In the cases where Care of Carl have reason to suspect misconduct or fraud linked to an order, it will be stopped in accordance with the “Fair Use Clause”. A suspicion can be based on multiple objective and non-discriminatory factors. This can be things such as uncollected parcels, allegation of incorrect handling at Care of Carl or our partners, orders composition or abnormal procedure when returning/receiving packages.
