Prices are shown on each product and include VAT where applicable. We offer different bundles of bibs with discounts associated, where you select to purchase a bundle the discount is applied at the checkout stage. You can also add on any additional discount coupons at this stage.
We try to make sure that the prices on our website are accurate but it is possible that an error may occur.

In the event of an order being cancelled, any payment already made for the goods will be refunded in full to whichever payment method was selected.
We have an inventory control system in place on the website so it is unlikely that your item will be out of stock when you order however if this does happen we will contact you using the email address specified with your order and either offer you an alternative, the option to wait for the bib to come back into stock (if we are reordering it) or a refund if applicable.

We will require a valid receipt with any returns. If there is a fault you need to notify us within 7 days of receiving your item.

Customs/VAT charges
International shipments may be subject to local taxes and import duties when the delivery reaches the specified destination. You or the gift recipient are responsible for payment of any such taxes and import duties. We have no control over these charges and cannot predict their amount. Please contact the local customs office for further information about potential charges before placing your order.
If your item does not arrive
You need to notify us immediately if you receive any notification from our courier that there is a problem with your delivery. We cannot intervene or assist if we do not know there is an issue. If you have not received your order (in Ireland) 72 hours after dispatch please get in touch.
We will always offer to resend your item after checking the address you specified on the order. If you have input the incorrect address unfortunately we cannot resend the item unless it is returned to us by An Post. We include return addresses on all items which go out so most of the time they do return the parcel but if not as the error was on your part unfortunately we cannot send a new parcel.
We will always offer you the option of a partial refund for your order, excluding the delivery charges.
Unfortunately if you report that your item didn’t arrive 90+ days after it was dispatched with An Post we have no tracking for it and are unable to provide you with any information.
If your package is reporting as delivered with An Post but you didn’t receive it we will always endeavour to get the driver back to recover the package. If it is more than 7 days though since it was dispatched it’s unlikely the driver will recall if he left it with a neighbour for example so we will do our best but it makes it difficult to trace. Please always report a missed delivery or undelivered package to us within 3 days to get the best outcome.
If your item is returned to us
We will always contact you to confirm the address you specified in your order is correct. If it is correct we will resend your order, we may have to charge you for a delivery a second time, if for example An Post were unable to deliver your item and you did not collect it from their depot as requested or you entered the wrong phone number and they could not get in touch with you. If it is returned because of an incorrect address, insufficient address details or a misprint on your part again we may have to charge you for postage again, if the error is on our part we will resend your item free of charge.
We will always offer you the option of a partial refund for your order, excluding the delivery charges.
