Refunds

All in stock items and regularly stocked items that have not been shipped yet are 100% refundable no questions asked.  For example, you change your mind, it is going to take too long or you find it for less, just let us know and we will cancel your order.   If the item has been sent, ACTUAL shipping charges will NOT be refunded and a $5 restocking fee may apply for unopened packages and a $10 fee for opened packages returned within 45 days.   If returned within 2 days of delivery, restocking fee will be waived or reduced.

100% refund no questions asked as long as the merchandise has not been sent yet - excluding special orders.

Actual shipping charges will not be refunded on returned merchandise. 

Returned merchandise must be returned within 45 days from date of shipping.  Some special orders may not be eligible for refunds.  Please contact us at 888-232-9678 or ruth@4mybday.com prior to returning merchandise.   

For most merchandise a $5 restocking fee applies for unopened packages and a $10 fee for opened items. 

A 25% restocking fee may apply for special orders.   Some special orders are non-refundable.

Exceptions:
Ordering additional identical items for groups of children will not be assessed a restocking fee if the return is for less than 35% of the quantity ordered. 
For example:  You order 14 tunics and favor sets.  Only 12 children attend your party.  The additional 2 sets may be returned within 45 days of your original order date without a restocking fee.  However, if you received a discount for purchasing 8 or 12 and the return results in a non-bulk discount, the kept items will revert to full price.

If actual shipping charges are 50% or more, you will be charged the difference.  If actual shipping charges are 50% or less, you may request a refund for the difference.
