Return & Refund Policy

Last Updated: June 2026

At I Love You The Gay You Are, we are committed to providing quality products and excellent customer service. We want you to be confident in your purchase and satisfied with your experience. If for any reason you are not completely satisfied with your order, please review our Return & Refund Policy below.

20-Day Return Policy

We offer a 20-day return window from the date your order is delivered.

To qualify for a return, items must:

  • Be returned within 20 days of delivery
  • Be unused, unworn, and unwashed
  • Be free from stains, odors, pet hair, or damage
  • Be in their original condition
  • Include original tags and packaging when applicable

Items returned that do not meet these requirements may be denied a refund or exchange.

Made-to-Order Products

Many of our products, including hoodies, t-shirts, journals, mugs, and accessories, are made specifically for you once your order is placed.

Because production often begins shortly after an order is submitted:

  • Orders may not be canceled once production has started.
  • Processing times may vary based on product availability and order volume.
  • Minor variations in color, print placement, sizing, or appearance may occur and are considered normal production variations.

Made-to-order products remain eligible for return under this policy if they meet all return requirements.

This production process helps reduce waste and allows us to create products specifically for our customers. We appreciate your understanding and support.

Non-Returnable Items

The following items are not eligible for return or refund unless they arrive damaged, defective, or incorrect:

  • Customized or personalized products
  • Final sale or clearance merchandise
  • Gift cards
  • Digital products or downloadable content
  • Items that have been worn, washed, altered, or damaged after delivery

Damaged, Defective, or Incorrect Orders

We stand behind the quality of our products. If your order arrives damaged, defective, or incorrect, please contact us within 5 days of delivery.

Please include:

  • Your order number
  • Your full name
  • A brief description of the issue
  • Clear photographs showing the damage, defect, or incorrect item

Upon review, we will determine whether a replacement, store credit, or refund is appropriate.

How to Start a Return

To request a return, please contact our customer support team at:

Email: customer-service@example.com

Please include:

  • Full Name
  • Order Number
  • Product(s) being returned
  • Reason for the return

If your return is approved, we will provide instructions for returning your item. Returns sent without prior authorization may not be accepted.

Return Shipping Costs

Customers are responsible for return shipping costs unless:

  • The wrong item was shipped
  • The item arrived damaged
  • The item was defective upon arrival

For your protection, we recommend using a trackable shipping method. We cannot guarantee receipt of returned packages that do not include tracking information.

Refund Process

Once your returned item is received and inspected, we will notify you regarding the approval or denial of your refund.

If approved:

  • Refunds will be issued to the original payment method.
  • Processing typically occurs within 3–5 business days.
  • Your financial institution may require additional time to post the refund to your account.

Original shipping charges are non-refundable unless the return resulted from our error.

Exchanges

We currently offer exchanges only for:

  • Damaged items
  • Defective items
  • Incorrect items received

If you would like a different size, color, or product, we recommend placing a new order and returning the eligible item according to this policy.

Order Cancellations

Orders may be canceled within 24 hours of purchase provided production, customization, or fulfillment has not yet begun. Once production or fulfillment has started, the order may no longer be eligible for cancellation.

If you need assistance with an order cancellation request, please contact us as soon as possible.

Chargebacks and Payment Disputes

We value our customers and encourage you to contact us directly if there is an issue with your order. Most concerns can be resolved quickly through our customer service team.

Customers who initiate a chargeback without first attempting to resolve the issue may have future orders restricted. We reserve the right to dispute chargebacks with supporting documentation, including order confirmations, tracking records, and customer communications.
