1. Cancellations
Orders may be cancelled free of charge only if they have not yet been processed or dispatched.
To request a cancellation, email info@amberandlane.com as soon as possible with your order number.
We aim to process orders within 1–3 business days. Because orders can enter processing shortly after being placed, we cannot guarantee that a cancellation request can be completed before dispatch.
Once an order has been dispatched, it cannot be cancelled under our voluntary cancellation policy. After receiving the order, you may request a return in accordance with this policy.
2. Change-of-mind returns
We accept eligible change-of-mind returns when the return is requested within 30 days of the delivery date shown by the carrier's tracking information.
To be eligible for a change-of-mind return:
-
The item must be unworn, unused and unwashed.
-
The item must be returned in its original condition.
-
All original tags must remain attached.
-
The item must be free from perfume, deodorant, makeup, fake tan, pet hair, stains, alterations or other signs of wear or use.
-
Where reasonably possible, the item should be returned with its original packaging.
For hygiene reasons, lingerie, underwear, swimwear and opened beauty or personal-care products cannot be returned for change of mind returns.
All eligible change-of-mind returns must be shipped to our designated returns warehouse in China, unless we expressly provide alternative instructions.
Customers are responsible for all international return shipping costs associated with returns.
These costs may vary depending on the customer's location, the parcel's weight and dimensions, and the shipping provider selected.
We reserve the right, to refuse a change-of-mind refund or reduce the refundable amount where an item has been used, worn, damaged, altered or otherwise returned in a condition that materially reduces its value.
3. Faulty, damaged or incorrect items
If you believe you have received a faulty, damaged or incorrect item, please contact us as soon as reasonably possible at info@amberandlane.com with your order number and a description of the issue.
We may request photographs or other reasonable information to help us assess the problem and determine the most appropriate solution. Providing this information can significantly speed up the process.
Depending on the circumstances, this may include a repair, replacement or refund.

6. Responsibility for return parcels
For change-of-mind returns, the customer remains responsible for the parcel until it has been successfully delivered to our designated returns warehouse in China.
We strongly recommend using a tracked international shipping method.
Amber & Lane is not responsible for change-of-mind return parcels that are lost, misdirected or not delivered to the designated returns address, except where applicable law provides otherwise.
Proof of postage alone does not constitute proof that a return was received by us.
Tracking showing successful delivery to our designated returns address may be used as evidence of delivery.
Customers should retain their shipping receipt and tracking information until their return has been fully processed.
7. Return inspection
All returned items may be inspected before a refund is approved.
For change-of-mind returns, we may decline the return or make an appropriate deduction from the refund, where permitted by law, if the returned item shows signs of wear, washing, damage, alteration, misuse or other handling beyond what would reasonably be necessary to inspect the item.
Items returned to us that are not eligible for a change-of-mind refund may, where practicable, be returned to the customer.
Additional shipping costs may apply.
8. Refunds
Once an eligible return has been received and inspected, we aim to process the approved refund within 3 business days.
Refunds are issued to the original payment method wherever possible.
After a refund has been processed by us, banks and payment providers may require an additional 3–10 business days for the funds to appear in your account. These processing times are outside our control.
For eligible change-of-mind returns:
-
We refund the amount paid for the returned item.
-
International return shipping costs to our warehouse in China are not reimbursed.
-
Any original shipping charges are not refunded.
-
Refunds are subject to successful delivery of the returned item to our designated warehouse and completion of the return inspection.
Amber & Lane does not charge restocking or administration fees for eligible returns.
9. Promotions, discounts and bundled orders
If an item was purchased using a discount, promotional offer or bundle deal, any refund will be based on the amount actually paid for the returned item.
If returning part of a multi-item promotion means the remaining items no longer qualify for the original promotional discount, we may recalculate the order and adjust the refund accordingly, where permitted by law and consistent with the terms of the promotion.
Discount codes and promotional benefits themselves have no cash value and are not refundable.
10. Refused and unclaimed deliveries
Customers are responsible for providing accurate delivery information and, where applicable, collecting or accepting their parcel.
If an order is returned to us because it was refused, unclaimed, or could not be delivered due to an incorrect or incomplete address supplied by the customer, we may deduct reasonable costs actually incurred as a result from any amount otherwise refundable, where permitted by law.
