Shipping & Returns
Items from this website can be shipped internationally by emailing your order to www.gerrardinternational.com or calling +44 (0) 345 217 1360. International shipping costs will be calculated based on order weight and destination.
Gerrard International processes most orders received before 1pm the same working day, Monday through Friday, excluding holidays, subject to your payment being processed and stock availability. Orders placed after 1pm, on Saturday or Sunday or on a bank holiday will be processed the following working day.
While we will endeavour to have your products to you as quickly as possible, please allow 5 working days from placing your order to receipt of goods for orders with a UK delivery address. International orders may be subject to slightly longer shipping times.
All purchases are subject to bank or credit card authorisation and approval prior to processing. For your security, your billing name and address must match that of the credit card used for payment. We reserve the right to cancel any order that does meet these criteria.
Customs and import duties are the responsibility of the customer. These charges vary and are charged when your package reaches its destination country. We recommend that customers contact their local customs office for details on how these charges are assessed and applied. Packages that are returned due to unpaid duties and customs will be charged an additional shipping fee.

Only items purchased on spongelle.co.uk may be accepted for return or exchange.
If you are returning an item for a reason other than damaged, faulty or incorrect product, you will have the responsibility for covering the costs of the return. We recommend the goods are adequately packed for protection and that you ship using an insured, trackable service to ensure safe and prompt return. Please retain the copy of your proof of postage when you return the goods to us. In the unlikely event we do not receive the returned parcel, carriers require that you file the tracer or claim. We cannot be held responsible for returns lost in transit.

CANCELLING AN ORDER
If you have made a purchase with us online, you have a statutory right to cancel your contract of sale within 14 days from the day you received the delivery and obtain a full refund.

If you have made an error, please call us as soon as possible after placing the order on +44 (0) 345 217 1360 or by contacting us via email info@gerrardinternational.com. If your order has already been shipped, you will need to return the item(s) following our Returns Process in the event of any unwanted products. Please ensure that any unwanted goods are returned in their original, pristine condition.
If you choose to cancel/return your order within 14 days from delivery, we will refund you in full including the original cost of delivery. You will have the responsibility for covering the costs of the return for unwanted goods.
