RETURN
POLICY
RETURN POLICY.
1. Overview
This Return & Refund Policy is governed by the Consumer Protection Act 1999 (Act 599) and the E-Commerce Consumer Protection Guidelines issued by the Ministry of Domestic Trade & Cost of Living (KPDN), Malaysia.
By purchasing from Vault 6 Studios, you acknowledge and agree to the terms set out in this policy.
2. Eligibility for Returns
Returns are accepted under the following conditions only:
- Item received is damaged or defective due to transit or manufacturing fault.
- Item received is materially different from the product listing (e.g. wrong figure, wrong variant).
- Item is missing components that were explicitly stated as included in the listing.
Returns are not accepted for change of mind, collector's remorse, or minor cosmetic variations inherent to prize figure manufacturing tolerances.
3. Return Window
Return requests must be submitted within 7 calendar days from the date of delivery, in accordance with Section 14 of the Consumer Protection Act 1999.
Requests submitted after this window will not be entertained unless the defect is latent and could not reasonably have been discovered within the return period.
4. Condition of Returned Items
All returned items must be:
- In the same condition as received — including all original packaging, accessories, and documentation.
- Securely packed to prevent additional damage in transit.
- Accompanied by photographic evidence of the defect or discrepancy, submitted at the time of the return request.
Items returned in a condition worse than received, or without original packaging, may be subject to partial refund or rejection at our discretion.
5. Non-Returnable Items
The following are strictly non-returnable:
- Items listed as Pre-Order — unless the item arrives damaged or incorrect.
- Items where the original seal has been broken by the buyer after receipt, unless the defect is internal.
- Items purchased during clearance or final-sale promotions, where explicitly marked as non-returnable.

7. Refunds
Upon receipt and inspection of the returned item:

- Refunds are issued via the original payment method (bank transfer, e-wallet, or platform credit).
- Original shipping fees are non-refundable unless the return is due to our error.
8. Exchanges
We do not offer direct exchanges. If your return is approved, a full refund will be issued and you may place a new order for the correct item, subject to stock availability.
