Please ensure that all returns are fully insured as we cannot accept responsibility for goods lost in transit.

We currently do not cover return shipping costs - these must be borne by the customer in the instance of a return.
As a retailer we are charged a processing fee for every transaction that is paid via the Shopify platform and Paypal. If we issue a refund to the buyer, fees from the original transaction will not be returned to us therefore if we agree to refund you for changing your mind, we will deduct the transaction fees from your refund amount. We apologise for any inconvenience.
A restocking fee of 20% will be deducted from the cost of the items if a package is returned to us because of unclaimed delivery. Postage & Packaging charges are non-refundable.
Shipping and Paypal fees will only be refunded in the instance where there is a fault in the original order.
The Model Traitor will contact you within 48 hours of receiving your returns, excluding weekends, public holidays and bank holidays. If we accept your return we will offer a refund via the original payment method minus the delivery costs or an exchange will be made, in accordance with the request discussed. An email confirmation will be sent once your refund has been processed.
If we refuse a refund, we will return the item to you.
If you are shipping an item over £50.00 you should consider using a trackable shipping service or purchasing shipping insurance. We don’t guarantee that we will receive your returned item.
