We want you to enjoy everything you order from us, but if something isn't quite right, you have 14 days from receiving your parcel to initiate a return.

In-Store Returns

For purchases made in-store, we offer the following return options within our physical stores:

Faulty Items Policy

Online:

If you’ve received a faulty or damaged item from an online purchase, please email our support team at support@gormanshop.com.au or submit a request here.

You can find more details about our returns process here: Support & FAQ Page

In-store:

You can choose a refund or exchange if an item has a major problem.

This is when the item:

  • Has a problem that would have stopped someone from buying the item if they had known about it.
  • Is unsafe.
  • Is significantly different from the sample or description.
  • Doesn’t do what we said it would, or what you asked for and can’t be easily fixed.

Please keep your proof of purchase — e.g. your receipt.

Exchange Policy

Online:

If you require an exchange, please note that exchanges are subject to online availability. If your item is not available at the time of processing your exchange, you will receive a refund or online credit, dependent on whether the returned item was full price or sale. We cannot pre-order or hold stock. When returning shoes, shoe boxes must be intact.

Value of an item is determined by the amount paid and listed on your invoice. If you are exchanging for a completely different item, the value of the new item is determined by the online price listed at the time your exchange is processed. We cannot apply discounts from past sales/promotions.

Shipping and Extra Charges:

You must tick the boxes on the returns form to allow us to charge shipping and exchange fees to your credit card, or instruct us to send a PayPal money request. Your exchange will only be submitted once the extra charges have been paid. PayPal money requests will be cancelled after 3 days of pending, if not accepted, an online credit will be created.

The Gorman Online store will not credit customs and duties paid on your order; this must be pursued by customers within their own jurisdiction.

As the Gorman Online store is not liable for the loss of the item being returned, we recommend sending your parcel with a traceable service.

In-Store Exchange:

All Gorman Online orders are able to be exchanged in-store, excluding ''outlet'' products. Customers have 14 days to exchange their order. A printed copy of the order email is required when making an exchange. Please note, that the Gorman Boutiques can only exchange for items of equal value or more. Furthermore, if you exchange an online order in store, the replacement item cannot be returned to Gorman Online.

In-store:

We are not required to provide a refund if you change your mind. On sale items we will happily offer you an exchange within 14 days with proof of purchase.

Items sold at regular retail price that are unwashed, unworn and unused in their original condition may be returned within 14 days with proof of purchase for an exchange or refund. For health reasons, there are no returns or exchanges on the purchase of Face Masks, bathers or earrings unless exhibiting a genuine manufacturing fault.
