Question 1

How can I return my order?

Accepted Answer

We include all the necessary returns documents in each package. Use the returns label and the returns document in order to return an item.

In some cases, your order could be shipped in several packages. When returning items, make sure to only include items that are listed on the delivery document. Otherwise, both the allocation and the reimbursement of your return could require an additional amount of time. Returning more than one package does not incur additional charges for you.

This is how it goes:

1. Make sure to place the item with its original packaging in the package.

2. Include the returns document in the package.

3. Stick the returns label on the sealed package.

4. All you have to do now is to drop off the package at your closest Hermers Shop.

If we forgot to include the returns document or label, you've lost them, or they've been damaged, you can simply download new returns documents and labels from your customer account:

1. Log onto en.aboutyou.at using your email address and password.
2. Click on the account icon in the header on our webpage.
3. Select »Your orders«.
4. Click on the order that you would like to return and select »Return order«.
5. Select the respective items you'd like to return and click »Generate return«.
6. See both PDF files for the return receipt and the return label. Download and print them.

In case you are having technical issues, or you need any further help with the process, feel free to contact our customer service.

After the returned items have been checked, the total amount will be reimbursed to you through the same payment method that you used for the purchase.

Make sure to return the items to us in the condition in which you received them. Damaged items cannot be returned.

Question 2

How long does it usually take for the reimbursement to take place?

Accepted Answer

As soon as the return package has arrived and has been examined by us, we'll initiate the reimbursement process within 14 days via the respective payment method.

Question 3

Is a direct replacement of the returned item possible?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately, a direct exchange of the returned item is not possible. After the package has been returned and checked, the respective credit will be transferred via the chosen method of payment. Afterwards, you can simply order the item again.

Question 4

Do I get a refund of shipping costs when I return my order?

Accepted Answer

You get a full refund of your order, including the shipping costs, when you return the entire order.

Question 5

Is your return is not shown in the order overview?

Accepted Answer

After you have dropped off your return, you can view the status of your return in the order overview page. Please note that it may take some time before we can provide this return status.

However, in exceptional cases, it may happen that we do not have access to the tracking data of your return, so we can not give you any information on it:

· If you have not used the return label from the parcel but used a self-generated label from the account area or a label generated from our customer service.

· For some items we have a few trusted partners that delivers for us. If your shipment was sent via one of these, we do not have access to the return status.

· If you have received your order via carrier X and dropped it off via a different carrier. (e.g. you have received your package via DHL and dropped it off via Hermes)

Question 6

What happens to my returns after I send them back to you?

Accepted Answer

After you've packaged up your return in its original packaging and have handed it over to your nearest Hermes Shop, it goes on a journey to our returns warehouse.

The process once it arrives goes like this:
1) Returns are first unpacked and inspected, and your refund is automatically triggered,
2) Anything that needs fixing or cleaning is done onsite,
3) Lastly, items are packaged up again to be resold.

For any products that are too damaged to be resold, these items are then passed onto our partners to be recycled. We care about our planet and our part in it.

Question 7

What can I do if my item has been damaged during the shipping process?

Accepted Answer

In case an item that has been delivered by us does not match your expectation in any way, you can return it free of charge by using the return slip, stating the reason for return. All relevant information concerning returns can be found under »How do I send a return?«.

Question 8

Where can I drop off my return package?

Accepted Answer

A return can be dropped off at any Hermes Paketshop. For returns that have been sent directly from our partners, please use the correct label to send it back with Hermes.

Question 9

How can I make a complaint about an item?

Accepted Answer

At ABOUT YOU, we want you to be completely satisfied with your purchase! If you have any reason to make a complaint or need to make a warranty claim, we are happy to help.

All items you purchase from us come with a statutory warranty period of 2 years. If you discover a defect in your item within these two years, please contact our customer service. In this case, please provide us with your order number and the article number, as well as a brief description of the problem and, if possible, a photo. Please note that the warranty does not cover normal wear and tear or damage caused by improper handling.

To return an item under warranty, please use the return slip and note the reason for complaint on it so that we can process your request as quickly as possible. The return is of course free of charge for you. As soon as the item arrives at our warehouse, it will be checked by us. This can generally take up to 6 weeks. If the item meets our warranty conditions, we will of course refund the purchase price to you. If the item does not meet the warranty conditions, your complaint will be rejected and the item will be returned to you free of charge. Of course, you can reorder the desired item as soon as you have sent the return. So you don't have to wait for your favorite item.

Question 10

Do I have to pay for a return?

Accepted Answer

The postage for the return is taken care of by us.

Question 11

Do I receive a confirmation email when my return package has arrived?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You will receive a confirmation email from us once we have received your return package.

Question 12

How will I be reimbursed?

Accepted Answer

You will be refunded through the same payment method you chose for the purchase. In case of a card payment, we will refund the amount to your card account. For payment via PayPal, the refund will be made to your Pay Pal account.

Question 13

Which address should I send the return package to?

Accepted Answer

The return shipping address is already printed on the returns label, which is included in every order package. In the event there is no returns label, simply log into your customer account at en.aboutyou.at in order to generate the necessary returns document and returns label for your order. Please include the returns document with the items you'd like to send back, and stick the returns label on the outside of the package. All returns can be dropped off free of charge at Hermes shops.

Question 14

What do I have to consider when returning items that are marked as dangerous goods?

Accepted Answer

Products from the "Beauty" category can be labeled as dangerous goods. If such products are included in your shipment, you can recognize this by the dangerous goods diamond on the packaging (see below).

Of course, these items can be returned like all others. Make sure, however, that they must be sent back to us exactly the way you received them. Refunds can only be made for new and unused items.

Please note the following:

Packaging

For the return, please use the exact packaging in which you received the product. Mailers are not suitable. If your packaging is damaged or has already been disposed, please use new, high-quality packaging.

Package labeling

Make sure that all stickers required to identify dangerous goods are clearly visible. Do not tape over them. If you are not sure, stick the dangerous goods diamond on one side of the package and the liquid arrows on two opposite sides:

Labelling	Image
Hazardous substance diamond The black corners must be at the bottom and top. The size must be at least 10x10cm. If the package is smaller, the marking may be reduced to 5x5cm.
Liquid arrows Two labels on the opposite, vertical sides of the package are sufficient for each shipping package. The direction of the arrow must point upwards.

Packing

Pack liquids or gas containers with the opening facing up. Provide sufficient padding (e.g. previous padding or newspaper) to ensure that the products are securely packaged and cannot move. Also check that all products are tightly closed so that no liquids can leak out - if necessary, you should glue them together.
