After the reception and return validation, Customer will be reimbursed for the amount of the purchase, deducted of any eventual costs and returning fees that will be Custumer's responsibility.
The refund will be made within 14 days to the original payment method, unless otherwise agreed.
In case of an exchange, as soon as the return is validated, we will process the new shipment.
DAMAGED PRODUCT
When you receive your order you must confirm that everything is in compliance. In case of any damage, you must return the order to the Carrier, duly justify the reason for the return on the delivery note and contact us through our email address shoponline@gotaagota.pt.
If you did not have the opportunity to confirm the items received upon delivery, you have up to 48 hours to contact us in order to find the most suitable solution. Keep the original packaging and items exactly as you found them so we can start the claim process with the Carrier.
Damaged product will be exchanged at no cost to the Customer.
DEFECTIVE PRODUCT
In case any purchased item is defective, you can choose to exchange it for an equal item, an item of equal value or to return it. If you want to exchange for a higher value item, you will only pay the difference. The exchange value to be considered will always be the value that was paid for the defective item.
LOST ARTICLE
In case your order is lost, we will resend your items free of charge.
We will make all efforts to speed up the entire process in order to cause you as little damage as possible. However, we will always be dependent on Carriers and Insurers procedures.
