Return and Refund Policy
Thank you for shopping at Hella Bay Clothing.
If you are not entirely satisfied with your purchase, we’re here to help.
Returns
You have 14 calendar days to return an item from the date you received it.
To be eligible for a return, your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it.
Your item needs to have the receipt or proof of purchase.
Returned items are subject to a 10% restocking free if there is no defect plus the cost of shipping. Our clothing is printed to order, which means we order clothing specifically for incoming orders. Not everything is in stock, ready to ship or be printed up, even though some of the more frequently ordered clothing is in stock.
Refunds
Once we receive your item, we will inspect it and notify you that we have received your returned item. We will immediately notify you on the status of your refund after inspecting the item.
Cancelled Orders
Cancelled orders are subject to a 10% restocking free. Our clothing is printed to order, which means we order clothing specifically for incoming orders. Not everything is in stock, ready to ship or be printed up, even though some of the more frequently ordered clothing is in stock.
Shipping
You will be responsible for paying for your own shipping costs for returning your item. Shipping costs are nonrefundable. If you receive a refund, the cost of return shipping will be deducted from your refund.
PROCESSING AND HANDLING TIME:
Once an order is placed on our website, please allow 5-10 business days for the order to be processed with a shipping label printed, prepared and packed, ready for shipment.
Hella Bay Clothing is responsible for handling orders from the time it has departed from our facility (which approximately takes within 3-10 of the order being placed as some items are printed to order) to the time when the tracking update states and confirms the order as being “delivered.” Please read more about the policies as well as track your package via USPS on their website: www.usps.com
*If you have not received a tracking number, but received confirmation that you order is going to be shipped, please contact hellabayclothing@gmail.com immediately so we can go ahead and send you your tracking number.
DELIVERY OPTIONS:
We normally ship via USPS.
Domestic Orders:
Priority mail usually takes up to 3-5 business days to arrive to the destination from the time your order is shipped out of our facility. USPS does label how many days it takes for the order to be delivered, but sometimes, there are delays.
**We are required by State and Federal laws to charge sales tax and shipping charges on products shipped to California.
International Orders:
We currently do not ship internationally, but are working on changing that. Sorry for the inconvenience.
ORDERS PLACED DURING SALES AND NEARING SPECIAL HOLIDAYS
Special circumstances such as national holidays may delay the processing and preparation time as well as the duration of both shipping methods (Priority and Express mail) for domestic and international orders by up to an additional 14 days. Please keep this in mind when ordering. (These are some of the specific holidays that you should consider– including, but not limited to: Veteran’s Day, Memorial Day, 4th of July, Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Christmas, etc.)
**If you have not received your order after 3 weeks from the date you ordered with us, please contact us immediately.
Hella Bay Clothing is NOT responsible for misdeliveries. If you miswrote the shipping address on your order, please contact us within 24 hours of placing the order so we can make the changes for you. Failure to contact us may result in the loss of your package or may be sent back to our facility, in which you will be required to pay for the reshipping fees via money request sent to you through e-mail.
MAIL THEFT/LOST PACKAGES/TAMPERED PACKAGES
It is very important to check your tracking number periodically. If you did not receive one, please request one right away, you may call us during our normal business hours or e-mail us. If you did not receive your package and it is stated as being delivered, please contact us. We will go ahead and file an investigation with the mail service that was responsible for delivering your package. The duration of the investigation varies case by case. In order for us to issue you a full refund or resend your order again, we must receive confirmation from the mail service that the package was not delivered. After conducting the investigation, and if your package was confirmed delivered by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, then we will not be able to refund nor reprocess your order.
PREVENTING FRAUDULENT ACTIVITY
If you have placed an order and will have the order sent to a different address than what is stated on the billing address, you may be subject to present verification in the form of a document or ID that confirms the billing and shipping address listed on the order. Failure to comply will result in your order being cancelled. This may delay the processing time of your order. However, keeping both the billing and the shipping address the same on your order will ensure your order will be processed in a timely manner as stated above (Please see Processing and Handling Time for more information).
