- Non-Refundable Subscriptions: All subscription box payments are non-refundable, except in cases of major shipping delays or if specific criteria apply. Once the subscription has been delivered, refunds will no longer be offered under any circumstance.
- Cancelling Your Subscription: You can cancel your subscription at any time, and you’ll still receive any boxes you’ve already paid for. Please ensure to skip any subscription boxes you do not wish to receive before your next renewal. Refunded renewals will result in the cancellation of your subscription.
- Refunds for Renewals: Once your subscription box has been renewed, you have a 3-business-day window to request a refund. After this 3-day period, no refunds will be issued for that renewal, regardless of the reason.
- Multiple Active Subscriptions: If you have more than one active subscription, we are happy to offer a credit towards your remaining active subscriptions if you request a refund within the 3-business-day window.
- No Other Active Subscriptions: If you have no other active subscriptions, please ensure you submit your refund request within the 3-business-day window, as refunds cannot be processed after that time.
- Major Shipping Delays: If a major shipping delay (over 12 weeks from the original expected dispatch date) occurs, we are happy to offer a refund or replacement, unless the delay is caused by a force majeure event (such as natural disasters, acts of war, terrorism, government actions, labour strikes, or disruptions in shipping/supply chains). Major shipping delays caused by force majeure will not immediately qualify for a refund.
- Chargebacks: Any chargebacks (disputes initiated with your bank or credit card provider) will result in the immediate cancellation of all outstanding orders and subscriptions. If you have any concerns, we are happy to assist you — just reach out to our customer service team at admin@bookishandspice.com.au before initiating a chargeback.
Refunds or credits are handled at the discretion of our team, based on your subscriptions and the nature of your request. Refund requests for renewal charges will not be processed after the 3-business-day window.
As an active subscriber you receive early access to our preorder exclusive editions as well as extra stock of our past editions.
