Event Merchandise:
Struggle merchandise will be available for collection at sign on the day before or morning of the event so long as the order was submitted within the deadlines. All orders are manufactured for the customer upon payment. We do not hold pre-manufactured stock. Therefore, we cannot promise a refund once the payment has been made. We will try to refund you as long as the garment order has not been sent to be manufactured. If you cannot attend the event but would like your product shipping to you, you will be required to pay a shipping fee. This fee will be calculated in accordance with the market price postage fee at the date the shipment is requested for. Should we not be able to manufacture the product due to demand or lead times we will then aim to offer a refund.
