new shipping and returns
Shipping & Returns
We ship worldwide, to 97% of the globe. (Yes. Globe. Sorry, flat-earthers). Our warehouse is located in the UK - which allows for accelerated shipping to Europe, and surprisingly fast shipping to the US. In the rare case a return is required, our terms are listed below.
Shipping
Where most feasible, we use Royal Mail Shipping for all deliveries. Within the UK this ensures most packages are received within 3 business days of placing an order, and where tracked services are chosen, within 7 days for the EU. Should you have a specific deadline for the arrival of your products. You are more than welcome to contact our customer service team with your requirements, and we'll do our utmost to ensure your needs are met. Unless otherwise indicated, our packaging materials are recyclable, so please dispose of the packaging in the appropriate recycling receptacle. For all other questions not answeed here, please see or shipping terms, below.

All products sold are subject to stock availability. We try to maintain accurate stock counts on our website but from time-to-time there may be a stock discrepancy and we will not be able to fulfill all your items at time of purchase. In this instance, we will fulfill the available products to you, and contact you about whether you would prefer to await restocking of the backordered item or if you would prefer for us to process a refund.

Shipping Costs
Shipping costs are calculated during checkout based on type of shipping, weight, dimensions and destination of the items in the order. Payment for shipping will be collected with the purchase. This price will be the final price for shipping cost to the customer. Unless otherwise indicated, shipping is conducted via the national postal carrier (Royal Mail, USPS, La Poste etc) though we reserve the right to ship via alternative means where shipping price and expediency can be bettered, at our discretion.
Returns
To start a return, please contact us using our contact page, or by sending an email to info@studio52magic.com, to request a return and RMA number.

Damages and issues
Please inspect your order upon receipt and contact us immediately if the item is defective, damaged or if you receive the wrong item, so that we can evaluate the issue and make it right.
Exceptions / non-returnable items
Certain types of items cannot be returned, like digital goods (ebooks, pdfs and videos), custom products (such as special orders or personalized items), and goods that have been used, opened or worn. Please get in touch if you have questions or concerns about your specific item.
