How to return an item

You can return your items for free to any SA store from which the goods originated - for example, return Totalsports goods to a Totalsports store. Refunds will be processed at the store. Please take note of exceptions below. 

Return via courier

We will arrange a free collection within 3 - 5 working days. Ensure that the item is properly packaged in a box to protect it during transit. Once the items have been received and assessed at our distribution centre, your refund will be processed. 

Chat with us to collect. Open the "Help" widget at the bottom right of the screen and choose "Returns". 

Exceptions

For hygiene reasons, we don’t accept returns of underwear, lingerie, swimwear, socks, hosiery, bodysuits, earrings, toiletries, cosmetics, edible products, earrings or any jewellery used for piercings. You are not entitled to a refund or exchange for gift cards, personalised, resized, engraved, repaired or updated goods or special order goods. 

Technology items

Unused wearable technology such as fitness trackers, smart watches, GPS wristwatches and heart rate monitors can be returned for a refund or exchange within 30 days provided that:

• They are unused in their original, undamaged packaging
• You have your original proof of purchase
• Your device hasn't been registered in your name or via an app
• Any used or opened wearable technology devices (i.e. fitness trackers/smart watches/wrist GPS watches and heart rate monitors) that are faulty need to be checked by a store whether it's in or out of warranty.

All wearable devices are subject to inspection by a specialist/supplier or by means of troubleshooting to establish the problem.

Proof of purchase is required to establish a warranty.

The repair process may include booking in devices to service or be repaired/replaced once inspected by the supplier.

Out-of-box failure i.e. within 7 days will be replaced or credited on the condition that the item is not damaged and have not been used incorrectly.

Furniture items

If you would like to return a furniture item, please reach out to our support team on support@bash.com so that we can arrange an assessment. Once our quality assurance team determines that the goods are defective or that there are quality issues, a return will be generated by our contact centre, who will arrange a collection date and time with you and arrange a refund. If we determine in our assessment that the goods are not defective or not affected by quality issues, or that care instructions have not been followed, you will not be entitled to a refund of these goods.
