How long do I have to return an order?
You have 30 days from the date your order was delivered to return it for a refund. *All returns are subject to our original condition and fair use policies set out in our Returns Policy.
How do I initiate a return?
Please contact us and we'll issue you with a return number and a return address. You'll need to include this number with your order. It is your responsibility to ensure that the parcel reaches our warehouse, so it's important that you use a tracked method wherever possible. If a parcel doesn't arrive at our warehouse, we regret that we won't be able to process a refund.
Do I have to pay for my return?
At present, we regret that we are unable to offer free returns unless a product has a manufacturer's fault or has arrived damaged.
If your product has arrived damaged or has a manufacturer's fault, please send details of the damage along with an image. We will investigate and initiate a refund.
Will my shipping fee be refunded?
Unless your item was faulty, all refunds will be initiated less the cost of (initial) postage. We will also not refund shipping costs associated with the return.
Refunds can take up to 14 calendar days to show on your account, depending on your bank. We will automatically issue your refund (less the cost of postage) to the payment method you used to purchase your original order.

Did you pay with Klarna? Klarna handles the refund process. This should take up to 12 business days once we’ve processed your return at the warehouse.
If you didn’t pay anything yet, visit the Klarna Portal. Select your The Journal Shop order and indicate what you’ve returned.

If you receive a payment reminder while the return is in progress, please contact Klarna directly.
How should I send my return?
Packaging your return
If you have items from more than one order that you'd like to return, you can send them back in the same parcel. Just make sure to let us know when you are requesting a return and we will issue you with the appropriate return number.
Please make sure that all items you have selected to return fit in one parcel. If all of the items don't fit into one parcel, you'll need to request a separate return and return your items in more than one parcel.
Please remember to package your order securely so that it is not damaged in transit. It's important to use the correct packaging for different products, for example, heavier notebooks must be sent back in a box while pens can be returned in a padded envelope.
Tracked Delivery
It is advisable to return your order using a tracked method of delivery. We regret that we cannot refund lost returns.
Can I exchange an order?
We’re do not offer exchanges on any products. All returned items will be refunded once they've been inspected by our warehouse. If you need a different product, size or colour of an item, then you'll need to place a new order.
