RETURN SHIPPING

Mount Longboards takes no responsibility for items that are lost or damaged while being returned to us.

EXCHANGES

To request an exchange, please complete the returns formΒ here, using your order number as your reference.

If you’re exchanging for a different item and there is a price difference:

  • If the replacement item is more expensive, we can arrange payment of the difference.

For exchanges, we will cover the shipping cost of sending the replacement item back to you. You are responsible for the cost of returning the original item to us.

BUNDLES

If you return only part of a bundle or multi-item deal, the original bundle discount will no longer apply.

The item or items you keep will be recalculated at their full, non-bundled price, and your refund or store credit will be adjusted accordingly.

GIFT WITH PURCHASE

If you received a gift with your purchase, the gift must also be returned when you return the qualifying item or order.

If the gift is not returned, the value of the gift will be deducted from your refund.

AFTERPAY RETURNS

Purchases made usingΒ Afterpay are eligible for returns, provided they meet all of our standard returns terms and conditions.

A 5% return charge will apply to Afterpay returns, in addition to any other applicable fees. This fee will be deducted from your refund to cover the non-refundable merchant service fees incurred through Afterpay.

DAMAGED OR FAULTY ITEMS

Faulty products will be remedied in accordance with the Consumer Guarantees Act.

If your item arrives damaged or is faulty, please contact us immediately so we can assess the issue and work with you to resolve it.

Depending on the circumstances, a faulty or damaged item may be eligible for a repair, refund or exchange at our discretion.

Please inspect your order when you receive it and contact us if:

  • Your item is defective or faulty.
  • Your item has been damaged.
  • You have received the wrong item.

Shipping and handling charges, where applicable, will only be refunded when the original item is faulty or the item received is different from the item ordered and cannot be replaced.

Refunds for faulty or damaged items will be made to the card used for the original purchase.

RETURNING AN ONLINE ORDER TO OUR RETAIL STORE

Our online store and physical store operate on separate systems, so our store team is unable to directly process a refund for an online order, however they can arranging it with our online support team. They can also help you with:

  • An exchange for an item purchased online.
  • Store credit.


In-Store Returns Policy

Our in-store returns policy is different from our online returns policy.

Mount Longboards offers a 14-day exchange policy on full-priced products. Full-priced items can be exchanged within 14 days of purchase.Β Items can also be returned for store credit to use in-store.Β Please choose carefully, as we do not offer refunds for change of mind on in-store purchases.

In-Store Return Conditions

To be eligible for an exchange or store credit:

  • Items must be returned within 14 days of purchase.
  • Items must be in their original condition.
  • Items must be unworn.
  • All tags must be attached.
  • You must provide a receipt or other proof of purchase.

The following items are final sale and cannot be returned or exchanged:

  • Sale or discounted items
  • Earrings
  • Swimwear
  • Socks

Faulty products will be remedied in accordance with the Consumer Guarantees Act.


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Mount Longboards is both an online and physical store. Because our store and website operate at the same time, there is a possibility that an item may be purchased in-store while you are purchasing the same item online.

In the unlikely event that this happens, we will contact you as soon as possible and do our best to:

  • Fulfil your original order.
  • Exchange the item for another available item.
  • Refund your order.

For bundle deals, a partial return for a refund or store credit will remove the original bundle discount. The full price of the item or items you keep will then apply, and the final refund or credit amount will be adjusted accordingly.

If you have any questions about our returns policy or are unsure whether your item is eligible for return, please contact us before sending your items back. This helps us avoid any misunderstandings or confusion.

Shipments outside New Zealand may be subject to local import duties and taxes. These charges are the responsibility of the recipient and may cause delays beyond the original delivery estimate.Β The international carrier may invoice you for local taxes and duties, or you may need to deal directly with your local customs authority to arrange payment and release of your package.Β We are unable to calculate the exact amount of duties and taxes that may apply to your order, as these charges are imposed by the customs authorities in the destination country.
