Yep. I just returned two awful jerseys I wore once each. It was inside the 30 days. I dont like doing it, but if they're discounting things so heavily, it might be because it's a severe miss for them, so the returns are probably expected. I had some merino LF gloves develop very bad tears recently. I bought them 16 months ago and wore them five times. I got a full credit and promptly bought the pro gloves. Rapha is still the greatest. |

Hey, I was one denied your return due to the missing tag and bag. Our return/exchange policy is unworn/new condition with tags attached, within 90 days. Because our return window is pretty big, we want our customers to do the same by following our policy at their best. Only exception is our Classic Collection, which has 30 day guarantee program. Nothing else. The main reason why I denied your item was 1) missing tag and 2) it smelled like a laundry detergent. So as a floor lead, I discussed this with my team and made the decision of not accepting your return. It wasn't par with our policy. As we have an amazing CS, some people abuse it in a wrong way especially at our stores. We had few awful cases and we decided to keep it more strict. Though, used products return is all case by case - and all stores handle differently. We don't just take used products as a return. It's not stated it on our policy unless it's a failure of our products, then we do offer some sort of vouchers or etc. We also do offer crash replacement and free repair services. If you weren't happy with the quality of our products or failure of our products, I would've took care of it in a different way. If you want me to take a look at again, please come by the store to do so. Coffee on us. Thanks! Last edited by jinbok; 03-23-2018 at 01:57 PM. |

I bought some Rapha branded shoes in January. I did not wear them until yesterday and they seriously hurt my feet.
I emailed Rapha and they agreed to give me a full refund, with free shipping. Even better was the fact that they suggested I wear the shoes a few more times and if I am still not happy, the refund would still be granted. That's awesome. |

I decided to return the shoes. I contacted Rapha, they sent me a Fedex label for the return. They asked for the tracking number which I promptly sent. To my surprise, they sent me a store credit, for the full purchase price, almost immediately, EVEN BEFORE GETTING THE SHOES BACK.
Wow. This is another reason why I keep buying their products. |

Just a little example of Rapha's great service. I have an older first gen transfer jacket. I've had it probably going on 4 years and where it a lot in the fall and winter. About a month ago the rubber part of the zipper pull broke off and I couldn't easily zip the jacket. I also noticed the zipper was getting more difficult to pull up and down prior to the pull breaking. Sent the jacket into Rapha US and two weeks later the jacket came back repaired. Zipper pull replaced and the zipper works as it did when I first got the jacket. All for the price of postage. Pretty damn good if you ask me.

Let’s think REI or Nordstrom’s or even Costco. Yeah, none of them sell Rapha, but they all have amazing return policies. If I’m going to spend big $$$ on cycling gear, I want to know it’s something I’m going to love. Or, Competitive Cyclist: We guarantee your total satisfaction and offer a world-class returns policy. New, unused gear can be returned at any time for a full refund. Used gear must be returned within 30 days of delivery for store credit. Not saying that Rapha doesn’t give great customer service, they just need a better return policy!

If that is what you want, then just shop at the four places you mentioned as yes that policy is an attractive differentiator. Retailer might make a one-off exception on a case-case basis but you are never going to see that a s a blanket policy on their website |

I just came back from a 2 week vacation with a very cold climate. Being from sunny Socal we did not have even one stitch of cold weather clothing. We dropped a tidy sum at REI not knowing what we would actually need-use-want, etc. We pulled off tags, threw away boxes, etc. In the end, we only used about 1/3 of what we purchased. REI happily took back all the stuff we didn’t use, minus tags, and a couple things we used just briefly. The gentleman didn’t question anything and smiled the whole time. That is truly great customer service!!! They don’t appear to be going out of business.

Plus, my wife is very skinny and gets cold very quickly. So, please don’t judge or throw big words around until you know all the facts. Thank you! PS: Norway was amazing and we were able to see the Northern Lights for 5 nights in a row. And, we were comfortable in 10* weather while watching them.
