REFUND POLICY / RETURN / VOID
RETURN POLICY
Items purchased through SAOL are entitled to be refunded or returned based on complaint. If an item is damaged during shipping, you may send us a picture of the damaged item by emailing our SAOL support team at soleacademy.online@sptc.ph. Once the damaged item is validated to be accurate, a replacement item will be sent free of charge. There is no guarantee that the replacement item is similar to the returned item. If an item is unsatisfactory, a written explanation is needed before the item may be considered for a refund. Exchanges are granted on a case-to-case basis. We do not grant exchanges due to dislike of an item upon receipt of order as it is the customer’s prerogative to purchase based on what is presented online. Similarly, we do not exchange wrong size orders as it is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that the size of the item they are ordering fits them.
