For mail-in returns, please enclose the packing slip inside the package, attach the pre-paid, pre- addressed Return Label to the outside of the box, and drop it off at your closest carrier location. All contiguous U.S. orders will have the option of a $6.95/unit processing fee which will be deducted from the total refund or credit if the provided label is used. You may also send the merchandise back using any other traceable method at your expense. ModCloth is not responsible for lost or damaged packages. Please make careful note of your tracking information if using your own label, as ModCloth is not responsible for lost or undelivered returns that were sent using your own shipping method. We strongly recommend against using a dropbox that does not have a daily pick up. ModCloth is not responsible for return transit delays due to the use of a dropbox that does not have daily pick up.

We reserve the right to verify original purchase for returns requested without an order number or shipping confirmation.

Final sale items are not eligible for refund, store credit, or exchange. Please note that all final sale items sent back without prior authorization will be considered forfeited, and will be handled at ModCloth's sole discretion.

How can I initiate a return?
To initiate an international return, enter your order number and email address here. Depending on your location, you may have two options for your return label type:

Standard return: Provides a pre-addressed shipping label but can be used with your preferred shipper. We recommend purchasing a shipping method with tracking, as ModCloth cannot be held responsible for lost packages that are not able to be tracked.

Express return: Provides a pre-addressed shipping label to be used at DHL only. A flat return shipping fee of $10 USD will be deducted from your refund amount once your return is received and processed.

You are always welcome to use your own return shipping method, however, we encourage you to make careful note of your tracking information, as ModCloth is not responsible for lost returns that were sent without using our label.

Once your return is completed, you will be notified via email with the details.

Final sale items are not eligible for refund, store credit, or exchange. Please note that all final sale items sent back without prior authorization will be considered forfeited, and will be handled at ModCloth's sole discretion.

Please allow up to 14 business days for your return to be processed upon receipt at our warehouse.

We are sorry to hear you are having some problems creating a return label. There are generally a couple things that might be causing an issue.

Is your item final sale? If every item in your order is final sale, the system is unable to create a label. If you are having an issue with a final sale item, such as a defect, please reach out to Care for assistance right away!

Is your order still within the return window? Orders must be received back at our New Jersey warehouse within 28 days of that order shipping. If you have missed this window you will be unable to create a return label.

Is your address a P.O. Box, APO/FPO/DPO, or in a non-contiguous state like Alaska, Hawaii, or Puerto Rico? Unfortunately at this time, we are unable to provide labels for these addresses. Any return would have to be made with your own shipping.

Are you using the correct portal for your return? The portal for domestic, contiguous US returns can be found here. The portal for Global-E international returns here.

If none of these things seems to be the issue, please reach out to Customer Care, so we can help you right away!

We hope you are 100% satisfied with your gift. If you would, however like to make a return, we will need to know the item name and order number to get you all set up.

Please note that all eligible returns will be refunded to the payment method of the original purchaser. We are unable to offer gift returns for store credit, refund to a different payment method, or as an exchange at this time. We apologize for any inconvenience.

We're sorry to hear something didn't work out! Sadly, we do not have the ability to process exchange requests at this time. 

In lieu of an exchange request, we recommend sending back return-eligible items for a refund using our return shipping label. You can then re-purchase that item in the size that you need. To initiate a return and retrieve your return label, please select the appropriate link from our Start your Return Page!

Customers are responsible for the return shipping label cost or postage to self-mail. The return label cost will be deducted from the refund amount due back to the customer.

If your original item received a discount on it, we would be happy to provide you with a new coupon code to snag that item for the same price! Please reach out to Customer Care for further assistance.

If you prefer to ship your return back at your own cost, please ship to the following address. Final Sale Items are not returnable even with your own shipping label. Please make careful note of your tracking information, as ModCloth is not responsible for lost returns that were sent without using our label.

Please contact our Customer Care team as soon as possible and remember that phone and chat are more direct than email!

ModCloth does not store items sent to us accidentally, and will donate or recycle these items as possible. We cannot guarantee an item sent to us by mistake will be found and returned, and cannot provide compensation for items outside your order sent to us. Please double check all return packages before sending them out!

Shipping charges are assessed on all orders based on the merchandise total after discounts and before taxes. Shipping charges are nonrefundable.

Oversales can occasionally happen when system inventory counts for an item do not match the inventory on hand, causing a discrepancy. This typically means they were out of stock at the time your order was fulfilled. During peak order periods, there may be delays to the item availability on our site.

We are happy to price adjust for items that were purchased at full, original price (with no coupons, loyalty points, or discounts), that have dropped to a red-line/markdown price within 7 days of the original purchase. We are unable to price adjust for any items purchased with a discount or points originally. We are also unable to price adjust for sitewide sales, promotions, or coupons and loyalty points that were not applied to the order at the time of purchase. Approved price adjustments are issued back to your original payment method and once issued does make the item final sale / non-returnable.

Please note that Gift Cards do not qualify for price adjustments.

ModCloth is made up of a compassionate group of people dedicated to having a net-positive effect on the world. With the utmost respect for internationally recognized human rights and environmental standards, it is committed to conducting business in a lawful and an ethical manner. Additionally, ModCloth expects its manufacturing and market vendors, who are considered Business Partners, to share this same commitment.

In Spring of 2013, ModCloth adopted Ethical Supply Chain Guidelines. These Guidelines set forth the requirements with which Business Partners must comply in order to continue to work with ModCloth. Pursuant to the California Transparency in Supply Chains Act, ModCloth discloses as follows.

Verification

ModCloth engages a qualified third-party to evaluate and address risks of human trafficking and slavery involving Business Partners which meet certain risk-related criteria.

Audits
ModCloth also engages the qualified third-party auditing firm to audit Business Partners on a semi-announced basis to evaluate compliance with ModCloth's Ethical Supply Chain Guidelines.

Certification
In order to do business with ModCloth, potential Business Partners must consent to follow our Ethical Supply Chain Guidelines and conduct business in compliance with applicable laws, including, among other things, without child labor, without forced or compulsory labor, without corporal punishment, without discrimination, and in compliance with wage and hour requirements, health and safety, and environmental laws.

Internal Accountability Standards
ModCloth maintains internal accountability standards. Should ModCloth find that a Business Partner is out of compliance with the Guidelines, ModCloth would assess the cause of the non-compliance and develop an action plan to assure future compliance. ModCloth will help Business Partners correct problems when they are found and build management systems that prevent problems from reoccurring. By working with Business Partners in this way, ModCloth can improve the lives of people who work for these Partners. However, should a Business Partner fail to comply with a remediation plan, or should a Business Partner commit a significant breach of the Guidelines, ModCloth may terminate its business relationship with the Partner.

Training
ModCloth employees who are responsible for supply chain management receive training to further develop their ability to identify and evaluate risks in the supply chain. This internal education of key staff sets ModCloth's foundation for fulfilling its commitment to having a net-positive effect on the world, starting from the inside out.

Thank you for supporting ModCloth's efforts on this important issue, and please stay tuned for ongoing
updates.
