Please review this policy carefully before placing an order. By purchasing from our website, you agree to the terms and conditions outlined below.

If an item shows visible signs of wear, washing, or damage, a deduction may be applied to reflect the reduction in the item's value.
3. Damaged, Defective, or Incorrect Items

To submit a claim, please email info@barbaraandsarah-palmbeach.com and include:

Please keep the item and all original packaging until your claim has been fully reviewed. Do not return or dispose of the item unless instructed to do so by our customer service team.

The available resolution will be determined after we have reviewed the information and evidence provided.

Underwear, shapewear, and bras are non-returnable after the hygiene seal has been removed.

Returns sent without prior authorization or to an incorrect address may not be accepted or processed.
Return Shipping Costs for Standard Returns
For standard returns, the customer is responsible for arranging and paying for the return shipment to the Warehouse Address provided and confirmed by our customer service team.
Standard returns include, but are not limited to, returns made because of:
- A change of mind
- Personal preference
- Fit
- An incorrect size selected by the customer
- Any other reason that does not result from the item being damaged, defective, incorrect, or not as described
Original shipping costs are non-refundable for standard returns.
Damaged, Defective, Incorrect, or Misdescribed Items
The standard return-shipping rules above do not apply when an item is confirmed to be:
- Damaged
- Defective
- Incorrect
- Not as described
These cases are handled separately under Section 3.
Please do not return a damaged, defective, incorrect, or misdescribed item unless our customer service team instructs you to do so.
Tracked Return Shipping
All standard returns must be sent using a tracked shipping service to the Warehouse Address provided and confirmed by our customer service team.
Please retain:
- The tracking number
- Proof of shipment
- Any shipping receipt
You should keep this information until the return has been fully processed.
Barbara & Sarah Palm Beach is not responsible for returned packages that are delayed, lost, or delivered to an incorrect address because the customer used an untracked shipping service or did not follow the return instructions, except where otherwise required by applicable law.
Restocking Fee
A 15% restocking fee applies to all approved standard returns.
This fee covers the inspection, processing, and inventory-handling costs associated with the return.
The 15% restocking fee also applies to:
- Unopened packages
- Packages refused at the time of delivery
- Packages left unclaimed
- Packages automatically returned to us
Exceptions to the Restocking Fee
The 15% restocking fee does not apply when an item has been confirmed as damaged or defective under Section 3.
The restocking fee also does not apply when an incorrect item is handled under Section 3.
Each claim is reviewed individually.
6. How to Start a Return
To request a return, email info@barbaraandsarah-palmbeach.com and provide:
- Your order number
- The item or items you would like to return
- The reason for the return
- Clear photographs when reporting a damaged, defective, or incorrect item
- Your full name
- Your shipping address
Our customer service team will provide further instructions within 24 business hours, Monday through Friday.
A return is not considered approved until you have received written authorization and the applicable return instructions from our customer service team.
Items sent back without prior authorization may not be accepted or processed.
7. Order Cancellations
Orders may be canceled within 15 minutes of purchase.
Once processing has begun, cancellation requests are no longer guaranteed and may be refused depending on the status of the order.
After delivery, a return may be requested in accordance with this policy.
8. Refunds
After your returned item has been received and inspected:
- You will be notified of the outcome of the inspection
- Approved refunds will be issued to the original payment method
- Please allow 5–10 business days for your bank or payment provider to finalize the refund
When applicable, the 15% restocking fee will be deducted from the refunded amount.
Original shipping costs are non-refundable for standard returns.
These deductions do not apply when a full refund has been approved for a confirmed damaged or defective item under Section 3.
The time required for the refunded amount to appear in your account may vary depending on your bank, card issuer, or payment provider.
9. Store Credit
In certain circumstances, store credit may be offered at our discretion.
Store credit is non-refundable and may only be issued once per order.
Store credit cannot be exchanged for cash or transferred to another person unless otherwise required by applicable law.
10. Failed Delivery or Incorrect Address
If an order is returned because the customer provided an incomplete or incorrect address during checkout, we may:
- Arrange one redelivery after the package has been returned to our warehouse and the correct address has been confirmed; or
- Offer store credit as a gesture of goodwill, depending on the condition of the returned items
Additional shipping charges may apply before a returned package can be shipped again.
If the returned items are no longer in their original condition, a deduction may be applied to reflect the reduction in value.
Packages that are refused, left unclaimed, or automatically returned may also be subject to the 15% restocking fee described in Section 5.
11. Policy Updates
Barbara & Sarah Palm Beach reserves the right to revise or update this policy at any time.
Any changes will become effective immediately after the updated policy is published on our website.
Changes will not retroactively affect return requests that were already approved under an earlier version of this policy.
