Refund Policy
Last Updated: August 2026
At DABSTER" + DABSY., every item is made especially for you once your order is placed. Because our products are made to order, we ask that you choose carefully before completing your purchase.
This policy is designed to comply with New Zealand consumer law and does not limit your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 or the Fair Trading Act 1986.

Sizing
Every product page includes a size guide to help you select the correct fit.
As our apparel is made to order, we cannot offer refunds or exchanges if the wrong size was ordered.
If you believe you've received an item that is incorrectly labelled or manufactured outside the stated size specifications, please contact us so we can investigate.
Colour Variations
We make every effort to accurately display our products.
However, colours may appear slightly different due to:
-
Monitor or mobile screen settings
-
Photography lighting
-
Manufacturing variations between production batches
Minor colour variations do not constitute a fault.
Refunds
Where a refund is approved, it will be processed to the original payment method used at checkout.
Please allow several business days for your bank or payment provider to process the transaction after it has been issued.
Replacements
Where appropriate, we may offer a replacement instead of a refund.
Replacement items will be produced and shipped through our fulfilment partners at no additional cost to you where the issue is confirmed to be our responsibility.
Order Cancellations
Because production begins shortly after your order is placed, we cannot guarantee that orders can be cancelled or changed.
If you've made an error with your order, please contact us immediately. We'll do our best to assist before production starts, but once production has commenced, changes or cancellations may no longer be possible.
Sale Items
Sale and promotional items are subject to the same policy as full-priced products.
Your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act still apply if an item is faulty or does not meet the guarantees provided by New Zealand law.
Consumer Guarantees
Nothing in this policy limits or excludes your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993, the Fair Trading Act 1986, or any other applicable New Zealand legislation.
If a product fails to meet the guarantees required by law, you're entitled to the remedies available under that legislation.
