Returns & Refunds
Return and Refund Policy
Luxplus aims to provide a seamless shopping experience while respecting your rights under the Consumer Protection Act (CPA) and the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA). This policy outlines how returns, exchanges, and refunds are handled for purchases made on our website or in‑store.
Eligibility
- Items must be returned within 14 calendar days of delivery or in‑store pickup.
- Products must be unused, in original condition, with all tags, labels, and packaging intact.
- Proof of purchase (order number or till slip) is required for all returns.
- Certain categories are non‑returnable for hygiene or safety reasons (see Exceptions below).
How to Initiate a Return

- Drop off the parcel at any designated courier point or bring it to our shop at Shop number A121, China Mall, 103 Main Reef Rd, Amalgam, Johannesburg.
Return Shipping
- For online orders, Luxplus covers return shipping costs when the return is due to our error (defective, wrong item, or damaged on arrival).
- If you change your mind or simply prefer a different item, you are responsible for the return shipping fee, which will be deducted from your refund.
- In‑store purchases can be returned directly to the shop at no shipping cost.
Refund Method and Timing
- Refunds are processed to the original payment method (EFT bank account or card) within 5‑7 business days after we receive and inspect the returned item.
