In cases where the garment is in extremely poor condition and dry cleaning is unsuccessful, the customer will be required to pay the full retail price of the item.

04 DAMAGE

HBT inspects all garments for damage prior to each rental. If a customer notices any damage before wearing the garment, they must promptly photograph it and send the image to Hires by Tahlia. Failure to do so, and wearing the garment, will make the customer responsible for the damage.

If damage occurs but is repairable, the customer is responsible for the repair costs. If the garment is damaged beyond repair, the customer must pay the full retail price.

All posted hires are at the customer’s risk. Delays caused by Australia Post, or issues relating to fit or expectations, are not eligible for refunds or store credit.

If a garment does not arrive on time due to an error by HBT, a full refund, including shipping, will be provided.
