Returns & Refunds
Do you accept returns or exchanges?
Please choose carefully as we do not offer a refund if you change your mind or order incorrectly. We ask you check the specification carefully to enable you to choose the correct finish(es), size, quantity and other specification.
At Lighterior, we carefully curate premium indoor and outdoor light fixtures from international designer brands. Therefore, these items are generally not stocked in Australia so we cannot refund you if you simply change your mind.
In the event you do make a mistake we will exchange your light fixtures, if notified within 30 days of receiving the order. However due to the above reasons this will incur a 25% restock fee, plus the items must have original undamaged packaging materials. The cost of return is at the customer’s expense.
