FAQ
Ordering
How long will my personalised stationary set take?
The current processing time for personalised orders is 7 to 10 business days.
For fully bespoke or custom/personalised orders, the timeline looks a little different and will vary depending on requirements. We are happy to talk through timings with you if you are considering our full design and print services.
For Semi-custom orders, once we have received your order, expect to receive proofs for approval within 3 working days. On approval, we then work to a 7-12 day lead time to dispatch your order. For fully bespoke orders we will communicate with you directly about this, due to the more complex nature of the design and sign off process.
Unfortunately, sometimes our timing may vary due to circumstances beyond our control, but we will always stay in touch and keep you informed about your status.
Can I amend my personalisation after I have submitted my order?
As soon as your order is submitted it will go straight into our production queue. There is a chance it may not have gone to the studio however, so please contact us within 3 hours to request to cancel your order.
Unfortunately we are not able to make amends to existing orders, therefore you will need to resubmit your order with the correct information/personalisation, once we have approved the cancellation.
We cannot take responsibility for any customer mistakes made when creating your personalised items, so please double check any details submitted.
For bespoke orders there will be a proofing process for your approval via email, before going to print.
Can I cancel my order?
Unfortunately, once an order is placed, customers are unable to alter or cancel it at this time.
If there is a mistake on your order, please contact us within 3 hours and we can see if it has gone to production yet to manually cancel and replace the order.
Shipping, Returns & Exchanges
We use all major carriers, and local courier partners. You’ll be asked to select a delivery method during checkout.
What is your shipping policy?
Once your order is placed, you will receive a confirmation email letting you know that we have received your order. Once your order is fulfilled, you will receive an email notification with your tracking information. All products are shipped via Royal Mail. Shipping fees are non-refundable in the case of returns.
Where do you deliver?
At the moment, we only deliver in the UK from our online store, but can discuss options for international shipping on bespoke orders.
Do you accept returns on personalised items?
Due to the nature of our small business, we do not offer returns on any personalised products.
Please get in touch if you have questions or concerns about your specific item.
Do you accept returns on non-personalised items?
Yes, if you are not happy with your product upon receipt, please contact us to let us know - you have 30 days to return any items to us. We do not cover return costs, so you'll be responsible for the cost of shipping your item back to us.
To be eligible for a return, your item must be in the same condition that you received it, unworn or unused, with tags, and in its original packaging. You’ll also need the receipt or proof of purchase.
To start a return, you can contact us at hello@thefinerycompany.co.
We will notify you once we’ve received and inspected your return, and let you know if the refund was approved or not. If approved, you’ll be automatically refunded on your original payment method within 10 business days.
Please note, we will only replace goods if they are damaged or faulty.
