Site-Wide Policies

The Haverford Guild of Craftsmen online store does have site-wide store policies. However, due to the varying nature of the art that is offered here, the artists are also asked to have their own Shipping and Returns, Refunds, Exchanges & Cancellations policies in place. To see those policies, view a product sold by that artist and click on the “Policies” tab. If they do not have a specific policy in place, then you will see the default site-wide policies.

All artists are required to follow the site-wide policies. They may expand on the Shipping and Returns, Refunds, Exchanges & Cancellations policies, but they may not minimize them.

[su_accordion]

[su_spoiler title=”What is the Site-Wide Returns/Exchanges Policy?” open=”no” style=”default” icon=”plus” anchor=”” class=””]

All refunds, returns and exchanges must be coordinated directly with the artist.

If you are unsatisfied with your purchase, or if an item arrives to you damaged, you must contact the artist within 10 days of receipt, or within the individual artist’s stated time frame. If a condition of the refund is to ship the item back, please use the same or similar packing supplies.

For items that were damaged during shipping, you must provide photographs of the packaging as well as the item that is damaged.

Additional conditions under which a Refund, Return Exchange or Cancellation will be granted will vary from artist to artist. Please see that artist’s page for their stated policies.

The artists’ contact information can be found in your confirmation email. You can also find the contact information on the artists’ shop pages. For the artist directory, please click here.

Custom orders and personalized items are not returnable unless the item is defective.

[/su_spoiler]

[su_spoiler title=”What is the Site-Wide Shipping Policy?” open=”no” style=”default” icon=”plus” anchor=”” class=””]

Every item is shipped directly from the artist. Due to the varied nature of the art on this site, there is no perfect “one-size-fits-all” shipping option. Because of that we offer the artists (and you) a couple of different shipping options:

USPS Retail Parcel Shipping and Handling: The artists may choose to offer this option if the item is less than 1lb.

USPS Retail Ground Shipping and Handling: The artists may choose to offer this option if the item is less than 35lbs.

Contact the Artist to Make Shipping Arrangements (You will be billed for shipping costs separately by the Artist): The artists may set this option for their individual shop. Alternatively, if you have any questions, you are welcome to contact the artist directly.

Local Pickup: Some artists will have this option available. The artist will contact you to arrange time and location.

Free Shipping: Some artists may offer Free Shipping on an individual shop basis. See the artist’s shop shipping policies for more information.

Please note: Each artist may have already listed estimated shipping costs and specific shipping details in their individual shop policies and product details. Please be certain to read the full product descriptions for any additional specific shipping information provided by the artists.
