Shipping & Refund Policy

FANABOX.COM online store accepts returns only under strict guidelines as stated below and does not accept in store returns unless an email has been sent to us prior and a mutual agreement has been set forth. All packages sent out to us without written agreement, will be refused at buyer's expense.

RETURN POLICY: 

Covid-19 brings new realities in the retail space and as much as we would like to accommodate you, especially during this post-holiday pandemic period, we would prefer not to accept goods being returned due to the very nature of this virus which can withstand on surfaces for some period of time. Therefore, we prefer not to put our staff at risk unless if the situation is of urgency, as we must disinfect the products and make sure, all sanitary precautions and social distancing is being respected during the garment sanitization. Having said this, we are still accepting exchanges and extending our policy for an additional 30 business days, if the items were purchased between November 1st and December 31st 2020, due to carrier delays, as we try to support our customers as a Canadian family business.

The way you will receive your refund is based on your original physical or digital payment method. We do not refund or exchange online purchases in store and vice versa.

We do accept returns strictly if the goods are damaged and unusable within 30 days (extra 30 days during 2020 covid-19 holiday period) with proof of original online purchase invoice or in store receipt or faulty or with factory defects. 

Under no circumstance do we accept returns if the customer does not appreciate the product, does not appreciate the quality or has ordered the wrong size, as we act only as resellers, we do not manufacture the product, all claims of quality or depreciation over time of product, must be sent out to brand owners or licensees (i.e. PUMA, ADIDAS, CCM etc.) Therefore, we will try to accommodate you, as best as we can and within our best business ethical capacities but the onus is on the provider or supplier. We only act as a third party vendor.

Please, contact us if you have any queries regarding sizing validity or product details, as most items carry a size chart on the 3rd or 4th image or within the description since some our collections are from Europe, and must be order one size up as aforementioned. All goods must be returned in saleable immaculate condition unwrinkled with tags, with no bodily wear or sudoresis and in their original packaging sent and unworn.

We will not accept returned goods without prior arrangements made via electronic mail correspondance and to our discretion and only with with a valid RA #: (Return Authorization Number) provided by our Online Customer Service Department by email, who will validate the potential return with photographic evidence only.

You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods and we may pay for the goods shipped back to you depending on a case per case scenario discussed priorly with our customer service team by phone, email or live chat box. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

We may withhold the refund or the goods being replaced, until we have received the returned goods in perfect condition or you have supplied courrier evidence with tracking and insurance provided by Canada Post (for Canada), USPS (for U.S.A) or any other International Courrier Service having despatched the goods with tracking number and fully insured, whichever is the earliest. You are responsible for the goods if the package is lost, stolen or tampered with.
