Returns Policy

Returns Policy

We are happy to accept returns if any of our rugs are unsuitable or you simply change your mind. Just return the rug within 30 days of order, in the same state and condition that it arrived with you. We do advise that you try all rugs on to a clean horse / pony preferable with a cotton sheet underneath to prevent the rug from getting dirty should you want to return it. We cannot accept returns for rugs that have been worn, are damaged, wet or dirty.

Due to the weight of the majority of the rugs it is advisable to return to us using either My Hermes or Collect Plus. Their economy 5kg parcel service is would be suitable for most rugs that we sell and this costs approx. £6.50 per parcel. Postage cost to return rugs must be paid by the customer.

Faulty Goods
We try our very best to ensure that each and every rug is checked and an accurate description with lots of pictures are displayed on our site. Most second hand rugs will have some sort of defect, sign of wear or damage to some degree. We are not claiming that all of our rugs are in immaculate condition because they are pre worn and some times a little older.

But what we do try and do is accurately describe every part of the rug and if there is something about the rug either good or bad worth saying, we say it!

Although we take every care and a great deal of time to provide these descriptions ocassionally we can miss something, and if this is the case and your rug isnt as described then we would be happy to accept it back. And of course if we are at fault with your rug, we will pay the postage too!

If you have brought a rug and feel it is not what it should have been or you are not happy with the rug baesd on what was listed on line, please get in touch via email becky@secondhandhorserug.com or phone 07940 423377 and I can assist with your return.
