    • How do I recycle electrical items?

      What is WEEE?

      The Waste Electrical or Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive requires countries to maximise the separate collection and environmentally friendly processing of all electrical equipment.

      Why recycle?

      Unwanted electrical equipment is the UK's fastest growing type of waste. Many electrical items can be repaired or recycled, saving natural resources and the environment. If you do not recycle electrical equipment, it will end up in landfill where hazardous substances may leak out and cause soil and water contamination – harming wildlife and human health.

      Selfridges is proud to support your local authority in providing local recycling facilities for electrical equipment.

      To remind you that old electrical equipment can be recycled, relevant products are marked with the cross-out wheeled bin symbol. Please do not throw any electrical equipment (including those marked with this symbol) in your bin.

      Recycling your old electricals is easy 

      Recycle your electrical and electronic devices free at your local recycling centre. To find your nearest centre, visit the Recycle More website and type in your postcode.

      How are we helping? 

      In the UK, distributors including retailers must provide a system which allows all customers buying new electrical equipment the opportunity to recycle their old items free of charge. As a responsible retailer, we have met the requirements placed on us by financially supporting the national network of WEEE recycling centres established by local authorities. This is achieved through membership of the national Distributor Take-back scheme (DTS).

      To find out more information on WEEE recycling and to locate your nearest recycling centre, please visit the Recycle More website.

      Information about delivery times and how to track your order is available in our Delivery section. We will make every effort to deliver your order within the estimated timeframe. However delays are occasionally inevitable due to unforeseen factors or events outside our control, for example, material shortages, travel or transportation disruption, import delays, adverse weather conditions, or higher-than-anticipated demand. Please note, during particularly busy periods, such as a sale, orders may take a little longer to get to you.

    • Can I track my order?

      Information about delivery times and how to track your order is available in our Delivery section. You will also receive delivery updates from our carrier partners when your parcel is on its way.

    • I didn't receive a returns label in my parcel?

      We no longer provide a returns label. Follow our returns portal link – www.returns.selfridges.com in order to arrange for our complimentary courier to collect your Products. Please note, should you choose to return your order through any other process not outlined in our Terms & Conditions (including a different carrier or postal service and not following the appropriate process for the value of the product(s), then any cost associated with that, as well as the risk, loss or damage to your order shall be borne by you).

    • I didn’t receive a returns label in my parcel?

      Unfortunately we are not able to refund local tax and duties paid at checkout on deliveries to non-EU countries as these are charged by local governments and paid by Selfridges on your behalf. Certain countries operate schemes to reclaim any local tax and duties if you return goods and will require a specific application by you to your local government or authority.

    • What do I do if I want to return my goods?

      Not completely satisfied? No problem. Within certain timelines and product restrictions, we will accept returns. The process varies for returns from an EU country and a non-EU country. For more information please see our Returns policy.

    • If I return goods, will I get refunded the local tax and duties I paid at checkout?

      Unfortunately, in most cases we are not able to refund local tax and duties paid at checkout on international deliveries (including the EU) as these are charged by local governments and paid by Selfridges on your behalf.

      Certain countries operate schemes to reclaim any local tax and duties if you return goods and will require a specific application by you to your local government or authority.

      (For certain US states, if an order is returned to us via our designated courier we may be able to refund sales taxes subject to the local state laws.)

    • What local tax and duties are charged?

      If you are buying goods for delivery to an international address (excluding US addresses), we deduct UK VAT (where applicable) from the product price, and we will add local import duties at checkout that are applicable in order to deliver the goods to your country.

      US orders

      We will calculate, collect and remit US sales tax in states where legally required and details of this will be shown on your order at checkout.

      If you’re shipping an order to a state where we are not legally required to collect sales tax, you’re responsible for any relevant taxes, customs and duties on the order in accordance with the relevant state laws.

    • What VAT is charged on my order?

      If you are buying goods for delivery to a UK address, then we will charge UK VAT where applicable. The price is presented on the British Pound prices on the website. If you are shopping in a different currency, UK VAT will be updated when you select a UK delivery address at checkout.

      If you are buying goods for delivery to an international address, then we will deduct UK VAT where applicable. This is already reflected in the prices on the website if you are browsing an international country. If you are browsing in UK, UK VAT will be updated when you select an international delivery address at checkout.

    • What happens if my order gets stuck in customs?

      For international orders (excluding US orders)

      Where you’re buying goods for delivery to an international address (excluding US addresses), Selfridges and our delivery partner aim to handle all customs documentation and formalities. Any tax, customs or duties owed will be calculated at checkout.

      Occasionally, this process can take longer, and orders may be held by local customs. In that event, we will try wherever possible to resolve this issue, however, local customs may contact you as the designated importer. In that event, and if you require additional assistance, please call our Customer Services team on 0800 123 400 (from the UK) or +44 (0)20 7160 6222 (from overseas).

      For US orders

      Where you are buying goods for delivery to a US address in certain states, Selfridges will handle the required customs documentations and formalities. Any taxes, customs or duties owed will be calculated at checkout.

      Please note that for certain US states we can’t calculate the tax owed due to specific legislation. In such states, it is your responsibility to handle any relevant taxes, customs and duties on the order in accordance with the relevant state laws.

    • Can I still shop from Europe? What is different?

      Due to changes in international shipping charges, all orders being delivered to an address in Europe (excluding UK) placed after 31 December 2020 are subject to duties, which are automatically calculated at the checkout.

      We always calculate a fully delivered price so you will never have to pay any additional charges when your order arrives. Duties will be shown as part of the final price at the checkout.

    • How does Brexit affect my purchases?

      For UK customers, Brexit will not affect your purchases and you can continue to shop as usual.

      For European customers, due to changes in international shipping charges, all orders being shipped to an address in Europe (excluding UK) placed after 31 December 2020 are subject to duties, which are automatically calculated and added at the checkout.

      We will send you a quote via email within four working days (Monday to Friday, excluding holidays).

    • How is the price I’m quoted for my bag(s) determined?

      We work with a team of valuation experts to evaluate your bag. The quote that you are given will be a competitive trade price that is based on several factors, including brand, authenticity, condition and the demand for that particular style.

    • Will any fees be subtracted from the price that I am quoted?

      No. The price that you are quoted is the amount that you will receive in Selfridges credit, which can be spent in store or online.

    • What happens if I’m not happy with the quote?

      Unfortunately, at this time, all prices quoted are final and are not subject to further negotiation. If you are not happy with our quote, simply decline the offer in the RESELLFRIDGES offer email. There is no obligation to accept our quote.

    • How do I accept the quote that you have given me?

      To accept our quote, simply select ‘Accept Offer’ in the email we sent you with details of the offer. You have 14 days to select ‘Accept Offer’. (If you still wish to sell your item after the offer has expired, you will need to re-submit photos of your bag to receive a new quote.)

    • Can the original price I’m quoted change after you receive my bag(s)?

      No, the price you are quoted is non-negotiable and a one-time offer. If your bag is not selected for resale, we will send it back to you, free of charge.

    • Why haven’t I received my quote yet?

      From the date of submission, quotes may take up to four days to be confirmed. If you have not received a quote after this time, please send an email to [email protected] or call us on +44 (0) 800 123 400, or if calling from abroad +44 (0) 20 7160 6222 between 8am – 11pm.

    • How long is my quote valid for?

      Your quote is valid for 14 days. If you still wish to sell your item after the offer has expired, you will need to re-submit photos of your bag to receive a new quote.

    • I’ve been asked to send more photos – why?

      Additional photos are sometimes needed to ensure the team of valuation experts give you the most accurate quote possible. If additional photos have been requested, we will not be able to proceed with the evaluation of your bag until they have been received.

    • How and when will I be paid?

      Payment will be given in credits on a Selfridges eGift Card, which you can spend in store or at selfridges.com. Once you have accepted your quote and the valuation team has successfully received and verified your bag, the credit will be transferred onto a Selfridges eGift Card within 12 days of it arriving with the valuation experts. These credits can be used immediately and do not expire. Unfortunately, at this time, we are unable to offer any other forms of payment (e.g. money). We will update you in the future if this changes.

    • What is Selfridges credit and what can I use it for?

      Selfridges credit is ‘money’ that will be added to a Selfridges eGift Card, which you can spend in store or at selfridges.com.

    • I haven’t received my credit yet – why?

      If you haven’t received your credit yet, it is likely that your item is still being evaluated. You will receive an email notification as soon as your credit has been processed (this normally takes no more than 12 days from when the bag arrived with the valuation experts).

    • Can I transfer my credit to family or friends?

      Unfortunately, Selfridges credit isn’t transferable.

    • How long will my Selfridges eGift Card be valid for?

      Don’t worry, your Selfridges eGift Card will never expire.

    • Am I required to wear a face covering?

      In line with UK legislation, and for the safety of both Selfridges customers and team members, you are required to wear a face covering at all times when visiting our stores unless an exemption applies. You are not required to wear a face covering whilst seated in our restaurants, cafés and bars. Upon leaving the restaurants, cafés or bars and entering the store, a face covering is compulsory.

    • How are you participating in Test & Trace?

      Selfridges is required by law to participate in the NHS Test and Trace scheme, and we will ask all our customers booking online for services, seated reservations and appointments to share their information with us or ‘check in’ via the NHS Covid-19 app. Any data shall be securely retained in line with GDPR requirements for 21 days to assist the NHS Test and Trace scheme.

      If you are attending a walk-in close contact service or dining in one of our restaurants, you will be asked to scan a QR Code in store, which will take you to our Test and Trace portal. This does not apply to takeaway food and drink services. 

      Please note that following changes in the legislation, all guests and party members are now obligated to participate in Test & Trace through booking online and scanning QR codes (not just a lead member of the group). If you do not wish to participate, we will be required to refuse the service in order to remain COVID Secure.

    • How are you safely managing returned products

      Each return is handled with the same care and attention we usually apply but to minimise the risk of contamination, all returned items are sanitised or quarantined before they are put back on sale. The length of the quarantine and the cleaning process is dependent on the nature of the item and its material, in line with guidance from the relevant government agencies.

    • Are your fitting rooms open?

      Our fitting rooms will be open with additional safety measures in place in line with current government guidelines. Each fitting room will be sanitised by steaming and antibacterial cleaning after each customer use, and all clothing items which have been tried on and returned will be quarantined or sanitised before being returned to the shop floor.

    • How will Selfridges keep restrooms hygienic?

      Restrooms are permanently attended to monitor capacity and are cleaned by a permanent on-site cleaner after each use and every hour.

    • How will Selfridges keep restaurants, cafes and bars hygienic?

      We are committed to delivering food and drink of the highest possible food safety and quality standards. Our Food Technical team have implemented thorough and comprehensive guidance in line with government advice, including regular deep cleaning to all restaurants, bars, and food counters, with independent audits carried out.

      Additionally, all staff preparing or serving food and drink are required to wear face coverings and our customers are encouraged to pay by contactless card. For more information, please visit our Policies Hub or contact our Customer Services on 0800 123 400 (within UK) or +44 (0)20 7160 6222 (from abroad).

    • Is there a limit on customers in the store?
