Returns and Refund Policy

At Laughing Owl, we are committed to providing high-quality products and excellent customer service. This policy outlines your rights and our processes for returns, refunds, and exchanges.

Your Rights Under the Consumer Guarantees Act (CGA)

This policy does not override your rights under the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act 1993. If a product is faulty, damaged, or does not meet the guarantees outlined in the CGA, you are entitled to a repair, replacement, or refund.

Cancellations

Once your order has been processed, we may not be able to cancel it. However, if you wish to cancel an unprocessed order, please contact us as soon as possible at info@laughingowlwhisky.co.nz, and we will do our best to assist.

  2. If the product is deemed faulty after inspection, we will provide a remedy (repair, replacement, or refund).
