We want you to be completely satisfied with your purchase. Our No Hassle Return Policy ensures that you can return any product, except Christmas trees which have a separate return policy - see below, for refund or store credit within 90 days of receipt of your order for any reason (we do ask that the product is returned in its original condition).
To return any item except Christmas trees, which have their own return process (see below), please follow the following step: 1. Send an e-mail to support@greatoccasions.com and provide the following information for each item being returned:
Christmas trees can be returned or exchanged within 30 days of receipt in new and unworn condition in their original packaging. If you are not satisfied with your purchase - you can return or exchange the item within 30 days of receipt as long as the item is in new and unworn condition inside its original packaging. All items properly returned under this policy are eligible for a refund. We will credit you for the total purchase price less a 15% restocking fee and any shipping/handling charges to and from our facility. Orders placed prior to Christmas cannot be returned for a full refund after Christmas, even if returned within 30 days of purchase. We will repair and/or replace the tree if necessary.
Prior to returning a Christmas tree, you must first contact our customer service group at support@greatoccasions.com or call us at 1-(888)-663-1252 and one of our representative will assist you. We do require that you contact customer service first because we can often resolve issues without having the customer return the Christmas tree, and in the event that you do need to return or exchange a Christmas tree, our representatives will make sure that the process is as easy for you as possible. If the tree is defective, Great Occasions will gladly issue a call tag and have the tree picked up from the location of delivery.
When you are issued the Credit Order Number associated to your return, you will be provided with the return shipping address information. We strongly recommend that you insure your package.
To return a gift, the recipient should follow our return instructions and will receive a store credit.

If you would like a different item, please return the original product for a credit and order the new item through our website.
When you send your Return E-mail (see return instructions) , you can choose to have the credit card on which the order was placed credited or receive a store credit that you can use to purchase items from GreatOccasions.com.
Your account will be credited within 10 business days of us receiving your return. However, please keep in mind that it may take more than one billing cycle for it to appear on your credit card statement.
You can view the status of your return through the 'Order History' section of 'My Account'. You will also receive an e-mail when your return has been processed.
