To initiate a return, please follow these simple steps:
-
Timely Communication: Notify us of your intention to return an item within 14 days of receiving it. We kindly ask that you refrain from communicating any issues beyond this 14-day window, as we may not be able to process your request effectively.

Shipping and Handling Fees

Damaged, Missing, or Unclaimed Orders
In the unfortunate event that your order arrives damaged or incomplete, please contact our customer service team immediately. Retain all packaging materials, as we may require additional information or photographs to file a claim with the carrier. While we take utmost care in packaging each order, “Imperial Century – imperialcentury.com” cannot be held responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged packages during transit. However, we will assist you in troubleshooting and provide the necessary information to pursue a claim with the carrier.
Cancellation of Orders
At “Imperial Century – imperialcentury.com” we reserve the right to cancel an order if the buyer has a history of negative feedback or presents a risk to our business. However, we understand that circumstances may arise where you need to cancel an order. In such cases, we adhere to the following guidelines:
Your Right to Cancel
As a consumer, you have the right to cancel any order within 14 days of receiving the goods, without providing a reason. To exercise this right, simply inform us of your decision to cancel by sending a clear statement via email to [email address].
Effects of Cancellation
Upon receiving your cancellation request, we will initiate the refund process for all payments received, including delivery costs (except for any additional charges incurred due to your choice of a non-standard delivery method). The refund will be processed using the same payment method you used for the initial transaction, unless otherwise agreed upon.
Please note that we may withhold the refund until we receive the returned goods. You are responsible for returning the items within 14 days of communicating your cancellation. The deadline is met as long as you ship the goods back before the 14-day period expires. You will bear the direct cost of returning the items.
It is important to handle the goods with care and avoid any diminished value resulting from unnecessary handling beyond what is required to establish the nature, characteristics, and functionality of the product.
