The shipping cost looks disproportionately high at checkout!
Shopify bundles the shipping rates of items with different shipping profiles together and so, if buying multiple items of varying sizes, you may be charged more than you should for shipping. If this happens, rest assured that I will refund you any extra paid. I will generally refund after your order has shipped (once I purchase a shipping label). Please do not hesitate to reach out in advance of placing an order if you have questions about the cost of shipping.
Apologies for the inconvenience, I can't find a good workaround for this at the moment.

I want to get in touch with you about my order
Message me using my Contact Form for any order or shop enquiries. I endeavor to answer all messages within 24 hours (if you message me over the weekend I will get back to you on Monday). Please avoid reaching out via any of my social media platforms as messages often end up in hidden/spam folders.

I'm in the UK, when will my order arrive?
Please account for the processing time on top of the shipping time - my standard processing time is 1-3 business days but certain custom listings can take longer.
I use Royal Mail 2nd class mail; you can expect your item within 4 business days of receiving the dispatch email (however it can occasionally take somewhat longer), or upgrade to 1st class mail (Royal Mail aims for 1-2 business days, or Tracked 24 or 48). If your order is more than ten business days late in arriving please don't hesitate to get in touch with me.
You are also welcome to get in touch in advance of placing an order if you require something more urgently. I may be able to accommodate a faster production and ship date, circumstances depending!

I'm ordering from outside the UK, when will my order arrive?
Please account for the processing time on top of the shipping time - my standard processing time is 1-3 business days but certain custom listings can take longer.
Royal Mail attempts to deliver to most countries within 9-12 business days, but I cannot account for the time a package may spend at customs or be otherwise delayed by the mail carrier. Please contact me via info@rachillu.com if it has not arrived within 6 weeks of the dispatch date.
You are also welcome to get in touch in advance of placing an order if you require something more urgently. I may be able to accommodate a faster production and ship date, circumstances depending. I can offer expedited shipping if you are willing to pay postage costs (message me in advance about this).

Items on screen vs in real life
I do my best to accurately represent how an item looks in my photos regarding colour, but be aware that there may be slight variations to colour on your screen vs. the actual product. Monitors and phone screens tend to have minor variations in the colours they display and I unfortunately cannot account for this difference across all devices. However, if you feel that the colour of something you received is wholly unexpected, please do get in touch.

Resending orders/customer returns
RETURNS: I accept returns; buyers pay for return costs. Contact me within 14 days of receiving your order to arrange a return (30 days if the item is faulty upon receipt). I highly recommend using a tracked method of posting to return an item.
RESENDING: If an item is returned to me due to an insufficient/incorrect address being provided at checkout, or the item has been returned due to it not being collected from the post office/unpaid custom or handling fees - I am happy to resend it with the further postage cost being covered by the buyer. I can otherwise refund the order, minus postage fees.
PLEASE DOUBLE CHECK YOUR SHIPPING ADDRESS AT CHECKOUT, ESPECIALLY IF THIS IS A GIFT BEING SENT DIRECTLY THE RECIPIENT.
