Return Policy - Glass City Pipes

Glass City Pipes accepts returns an all unused products within 5 days of receipt of shipment as long as they are in their original, unopened packaging. We absolutely can not accept returns on any used products. 

To file a return:

1. Please take several photos of the pipe that show that it has not been used. If the product arrived in item-specific packaging, please take photos of the unopened packaging.

2. Send these photos to us at sales@glasscitypipes.com along with your order number and your reason for requesting a return. 

3. We will then email you a pre-paid shipping label to attach to the original box and ship the item back to us. The cost of the return label will be subtracted from your refund amount. Additionally, if you selected free shipping at checkout, the cost of the original label to ship it to you will be deducted from the refund amount. For example, if you purchase an item for $60 and the cost to ship it to you was $5 and the cost to ship it back to us is another $5, you will receive a refund amount of $50. Alternatively, if you paid for shipping at checkout, then that amount will just be reduced from the total refund as well as the cost to ship it back to us. Shipping costs are nonrefundable.
