All Returns must be authorised by following the "Returns Procedure".
As described in our Refunds Policy
we do not refund returned products so choose carefully. Authorised returns
will result in a replacement product or a credit note.
We offer a return policy on products that are classified as following:-
- "Damaged in Transit"
- "Incorrectly Shipped"
- "Unopened Product"
- "Faulty Product"
Otherwise due to the health risks from tampering all products are considered
to be sold on a "No Return Basis".
We will not accept any opened product for return unless the product
is returnable under the express terms of this Returns Policy, a manufacturer’s
warranty or other contract or statute.
Examples of conditions under which we would accept opened product are:-
- "Damaged in Transit" product.
- Product which develops a fault due to a cause occurring prior to purchase.
- Product that could be considered to be of un-merchantable quality.
Please note that events such as wilful damage, misuse, unauthorized repair
or tampering with a product may prevent a product being accepted for return.

Damaged in Transit Product
In the event that you receive a product that appears to have been “Damaged
in Transit” – that is, damaged in transit from Mr Vitamins
to you – you should:
- refuse to accept delivery of the product,
- direct the courier to "Return goods to sender" and

in proving the cause of damage, we recommend that all "Damaged in
Transit Products" be returned to Mr Vitamins within 7 days of purchase.
If it is reasonably determined by Mr Vitamins that the product has not

Faulty Product
In the event that the product you have received is faulty on receipt or
develops a fault, you may be able to return it under the “Damaged
in Transit Product” procedure above. Please note that events such
as wilful damage, misuse, unauthorized repair or tampering with a product
may prevent a product being accepted for return.
If a manufacturer offers to accept opened product for return, then we
will honour the manufacturer’s returns policy where it involves
us as the retailer. The manufacturer’s returns policy will direct
you to either:-
- Return the product directly to the manufacturer, its agent or a third
party service provider; or
- Return the product to the retailer from whom the product was originally
purchased.
If the manufacturer directs you to return the product to the manufacturer,
agent or a third party, then you should arrange for the product to be
returned as directed and otherwise in accordance with the manufacturers
returns policy. The manufacturer will then organize any refund, repair
or replacement payable under the policy.
If the manufacturer directs you to return the product to us as the retailer,
then you should contact our Customer Service staff at least 7 days before
the expiration date specified by the manufacturer; otherwise, the return
may not be authorized in some circumstances.
You should provide any additional information that may be required under
the manufacturer’s returns policy.
Where possible (and to the extent consistent with the manufacturer’s
returns policy),
- you will need to package and address the product for return in accordance
with the above procedures (see Return
Procedure) and
- you will need to arrange for return delivery of the product to Mr
Vitamins at the address listed in the above procedures.
Mr Vitamins will not pay or reimburse any costs associated with a customer-organized
shipment unless it agrees to do so or is required to do so under this
Returns Policy.
The product should be received by our warehouse within the period specified
by the Manufacturer; otherwise, the return may not be authorized in some
circumstances.
For products which are validly returned under a manufacturer's return
policy, a credit will be issued for the original purchase price of product
returned less any freight costs associated with the initial delivery to
you and the return delivery.
If the product has not been validly returned under a manufacturer’s
return policy (or any other policy described in this Returns Policy),
it will be returned to you and you will be invoiced a processing fee and
freight costs associated with the return. These invoiced amounts will
be payable by you within 30 days of receipt of invoice.
Please note that events such as wilful damage, misuse, unauthorized repair
or tampering with a product may prevent a product being accepted for return.
No Return Basis
The term "No Return Basis" means that, unless the product is
"Damaged in Transit", “Incorrectly Shipped” or otherwise
returnable under a manufacturer’s warranty or other contract or
statute, the product will not be accepted for return.
Examples of products sold on a "No Return Basis" include:
- All health supplements
- Products with a "No Return" label.
- Products specially ordered for a customer.
- Product listed on the packing slip or invoice as "No Return".
Examples of conditions under which we would accept "No Return Basis"

- Product that could reasonably be considered to be of un-merchantable
quality.
Please note that events such as wilful damage, misuse, unauthorized repair
or tampering with a product may prevent a product being accepted for return.
Refunds Policy
We do not refund returned products so choose carefully. Authorised returns
will result in a replacement product or a credit note.
The only exclusions to this refund policy is for goods not yet shipped
where
- a bought product cannot be sourced within a reasonable amount of time
from the manufacturer.
Processing Credits
A credit note will normally be issued within 7 days of us receiving the
goods returned in accordance with this Returns Policy, with the exception
of goods that are not obviously faulty and may require testing.
Where a product is returned because you believe it is faulty and the
fault cannot be observed by our internal testing, the product may need
to be tested by the manufacturer. In such cases, the testing process may
result in delays of up to 28 days before we can determine whether a credit
note will be issued.
The credit note which is issued can then be used as a payment against
future purchases.
In some circumstances, we may elect that a replacement product or repair
is sufficient remedy instead of a credit note. This election will be at
our sole discretion, but will only occur after consultation with you and
in accordance with relevant warranties, other contracts and statutes.
If we elect to have a product replaced or repaired, we will do this at
our cost and return the product (or its replacement) to you promptly.
