Returns are not processed over weekends as the Couriers do not operate.
If items are being posted back, please place any product packaging inside a satchel and do not attach any labelling to the outside of the packaging. If the packaging has been marked or is in unsatisfactory condition there may be a chance that we will be unable to exchange or refund the product.

If you have any problems with the returns process, please do not hesitate to contact our team
Faulty Returns
Items are classified as faulty if they are not of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose or as described. Items which are damaged or are affected due to normal wear and tear are not considered faulty.
Upon receiving your item, if your item is faulty (and unworn and unused), you can return it for a replacement or refund within 30 days. It is the consumer's responsibility to inspect all products and inform us of any faults as soon as possible.
If your item is faulty outside of the 30 days or does not meet the above criteria, please contact us as soon as possible so we can guide you through the returns process as quickly as possible. You may be required to send us images of the deemed fault for a preliminary assessment. If deemed a potential fault, we will have the product returned and sent to the original supplier for an assessment. We do our best to move through this process as quickly as possible and try to have a resolution within 14 working days. If deemed a fault by the supplier we will repair, replace or refund the item as required. If your item is not deemed faulty we will ship the item back to you at your cost.
Galaxy Water will always meet our obligations under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 to provide a remedy.
Please note that each supplier / manufacturer may have different warranty periods or service standards for faulty products. While we will endeavour to deal with all faulty products promptly, we do not have control over the repairs or assessment process for warranty issues. In some cases, such as most watches, products returned in used condition will be repaired instead of replaced and will not be refunded unless repair is impossible. For more information on your product’s warranty, please refer to the information included with the product.
For further information on warranties and faulty items, please contact our customer service team.
