BREXIT UPDATE FOR EU CUSTOMERS:

For orders over £300 to EEC member states the price you see on the product page is the price you will pay (+ shipping costs only). East West Apparel will pay any taxes and duties due on your order when it enters your country ahead of time so that your order comes to you as quick as before without any further costs involved. The returns procedure has changed slightly and is detailed under returns and exchanges below.

To keep things nice and simple and just incase you need to return an item the shipping cost has not been calculated into the price of your item/s. We feel that this way it is transparent, the price of the item is just that and customers in one location are not getting a better deal than those in another.

The shipping rate is calculated on the heaviest item in your cart/ basket only so no need to worry that you’ll be charged twice.

UK:

Flat rate of £6.50 for all orders.

EEC European Countries (Excluding: Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia, Greece & Switzerland – Please see details below):

All import costs for with a product value above £300 (for the items only, not including shipping costs) are covered by East West Apparel and so the price you see on the product page is the price you will pay (which will get converted to your currency) + the below shipping costs. There will be no import taxes or duties for you to pay unless your order value for items only is under £300.

Flat rate of: £20.00
Small Packet/ Envelope/ Laces: £10.00

Sincere apologies to our customers from Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia, Greece & Switzerland. The costs involved with shipping to your country now are very high due to brokerage and handling fee’s applied when we select to cover import fee’s to your country so it is your responsibility to cover these costs. Sincerest apologies and we will be as helpful as we can with the paperwork.

Non UK returns:

We are in the process of offering a returns service for EU/ International returns whereby we send you a UPS label via the UPS website and deduct the cost from your refund or invoice you for the cost if it is an exchange. This will keep your costs to a minimum and simplify the the returns process for you. We will publicise this option shortly.
If returning items from outside of the UK it is important that you mark the items as RETURNED GOODS.
Please also declare the value at no more than £15 (or the equivalent in your country’s currency). If you do not do this, we will end up paying taxes and duties on the item for a second time around which will have to be deducted from your refund. Please do insure the parcel for the full value as the item is your responsibility until we receive it back.
Upon receipt of returned items, we will issue a full refund for the amount paid for the items only or give an exchange or credit as required.

Please inform us by email that you wish to exchange for a different size/ item and if in stock we will reserve your exchange item for you or alternatively order your size/ item in especially for you (subject to availability).
