Kickstarter Returns/Refunds Policy
Dear Backers!
While all of our products include the mentioned above return and refund policy, when it comes to Kickstarter rewards - our policy must differ, only because these Kickstarter funds are in fact the means for products manufacturing, growing our company, building a community etc., and therefore we cannot offer refunds or returns on items received as Kickstarter rewards.
The support we get from our Kickstarter backers is what enables us to run and grow our business, which is designing new urban products and perfecting existing ones.
In the Kickstarter community, the items that you receive after making a pledge are called “rewards”, they are not purchases per say. The way the Kickstarter community grasps it, is as follows: They are rewards that are sent to the supporters as a sign of appreciation for their support in the creation of a product.
The initial Kickstarter production round is always the first and original making of a product that has been developed throughout an extensive period of time.
This production is mainly Kickstarter backers oriented in terms of fulfillment, as opposed to an ordinary purchase from an existing stock. Thus, due to the fact that this product was custom made by one’s order, refund and/or cancellation eligibility is not possible.
In essence, this only makes sense, otherwise we wouldn’t be able to run our business as our factories, vendors, shipping partners etc. all require a fee of course.
We appreciate your understanding of our policy and the support you have given us. If your reward truly offers no value to you, you can give your reward to a friend, try to sell it, or maybe even give it another chance...
Thank you again for your support and understanding, and please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
Thanks!
Kickstarter Non-Delivery:
We work very hard for all our backers to receive their rewards as fast as possible, but if you haven't updated us that your reward hasn't been delivered within 12 months from the end of the Kickstarter campaign, we won't be able to provide a replacement.
Thank you again for your support and understanding, and please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
