3. Vintage & Handmade Products
Many About Dreams products are vintage, upcycled, handmade, or limited edition.
Small signs of age, variations, fading, repaired areas, fabric irregularities, or slight imperfections are considered part of the unique character of these products and are not considered manufacturing defects.

We strongly recommend using a tracked and insured shipping service.
About Dreams cannot be held responsible for returns lost during transit.
6. Refunds
Once your returned item has been received and inspected, we will notify you of the outcome.
If your return is approved, your refund will be processed using the original payment method.
Refunds will be issued within 14 days after receiving the returned goods or receiving proof that the goods have been shipped back, whichever occurs first.
Original standard delivery charges will be refunded where required by applicable law.
Additional shipping costs resulting from express or premium delivery services selected by the customer are non-refundable.
