Returns Policy

Need to return an item?

At Guinea Pigs Australia, we want your experience with us to be a pleasant one - which is why we've made our returns policy as simple as possible. And if for some reason things don't go quite to plan, we have a dedicated customer service team to make everything right again!

Please note: We cannot issue credits or refunds unless you have first spoken to a Guinea Pigs Australia representative, as we need to issue you with a returns number and address before you send us back any items. Without these, we will be unable to process your return and refund the cost of your item(s)

Returns

How many days do I have to return an item?

We accept returns for up to 30 days from purchase, providing it is unopened and in original condition (including packaging). For these purchases you can return your order for exchange, Refund or store credit.

I have a faulty Item?

You can return your order for a refund if the item is faulty, not fit for the intended purpose or not as pictured on the website. Items returned after 30 days may not qualify for a refund, or may incur an extra restocking fee.

Do I need to pay postage to return the item?

The customer is responsible for the cost of an item's return, unless there was an error on our behalf. Due to the nature of couriers, it may cost more to send an item back to us than us shipping it out to you.

A Guinea Pigs Australia customer service representative must be contacted before returning goods. We can only offer refunds when we have arranged pickup and return through our courier service.
