Delivery Information 

The retail team would like to thank you for your ongoing support and custom. 

We do our utmost best to process and dispatch your order within 48 hours of it being placed within working hours. However, due to current circumstances there may be a slight delay to our usual delivery estimations.

If you have any questions, please contact us on shop@durhamcricket.co.uk.

Royal Mail does not consider a parcel to be lost unless it has been in the postal system for no less than 14 days for UK mainland orders and 25 days for international. Whilst it is highly unlikely deliveries will take this long, we are only able to send you a replacement once the specified period has passed. Please check with your local post office if you are expecting a parcel from us, if it has not arrived, as they may be holding it for collection.

 If the buyer has provided a wrong address and the order is not returned to us, then we are not responsible. This would be considered as a Lost Order so we will not issue a refund.

If the buyer informs us that they has provided a wrong shipping address, then we will try to stop the order but we cannot guarantee it because we process orders rapidly.

Returns Policy

In addition to any statutory rights, we offer you on a good will basis, if you are not completely satisfied with your purchase please return your item(s) back to us to the club shop at Riverside or by returning your item to the club shop (address below) along with your receipt within 14 days of purchase for a refund.

For clearance items, purchased at a reduced price, you must return these within 8 days from the point of purchase to receive a refund or exchange. 

All items must be returned in an unworn and unused condition, in all original packaging with all labels and tags still attached, unless faulty.

On the very rare occasion that a product online appears to be in stock but has in fact sold out, we will inform you of this and where payment has been taken, we will immediately return this to you.

Any refunds will be made using the same payment method as you used for the initial transaction, unless we are unable to do so (e.g. your credit card used for payment has expired). If an electronic refund is not possible or you are not present in one of our official stores, we will process the refund by cheque.

Your statutory rights are not affected by the terms set out in this Returns Policy.

Exceptions to our return policy

We’re unable to accept:

• pierced jewellery, face protectors, underwear or swimwear or any products that are likely to deteriorate or expire rapidly;
• any other item specifically manufactured/personalised item to your order;

for either a refund or exchange, unless deemed to be faulty.

Please note that gift cards and items purchased as part of a sale do not form part of the 28 day good will return policy. This does not affect your statutory rights in respect of such goods.

Personalised items are non-returnable. Once a name, number or format patch has been printed on a shirt we will not offer a refund or exchange unless the shirt is deemed faulty. The same applies if the Club badge changes, a player leaves the Club or changes their squad number during their time at the Club. We cannot refund or exchange personalised items for sizing errors, as such before personalising an item please take care to ensure you order the correct size.

Special refund terms may apply to products purchased as part of a promotional offer (e.g. buy one get one free, buy two shirts for £40 as opposed to each shirt being at the regular full price). All refunds will be based on the terms of the promotional price and any other additional refund terms will be notified to you. For example, if you purchased two shirts for £40 and you decide to return 1 shirt, you will be refunded the promotional price of the item (e.g. the full price minus any discount applied as part of the offer). If you return both shirts you will be refunded the full multi-buy price (in this example £40). Your statutory rights are not affected.
