Return Policy and Cancellation Policy.

VTR is happy to ship rugs for customer consideration as long as customer agrees to the stated RETURN POLICY and CANCELLATION POLICY. VTR is also happy to search for other rugs not found on my website. With your very clear description of color, style and size, I will begin searching all rugs with USA and over seas rug vendors.

When VTR Rugs are shipped for consideration of purchase to a customer or designer, customer or designer is responsible to return ship all rugs not purchased to VTR or the warehouse from which the rugs were shipped. All rugs that are not purchased or if a rug is ordered and then cancelled by a customer or designer- these rugs are subject to shipping charges and 5% fees and all other bank fees. Special order rugs cannot be cancelled once the rug is on the loom. Other Cancellations MUST occur within 10 days of placing the order via email from VTR website or the customer will have purchased the rug. AND, Rugs MUST be returned within 10 days of delivery or the customer/designer owns the rug- after 10 days it is a purchase. It is the responsibility of the customer or designer to pay (by VENMO or check) a deposit for the retail cost of the rug before shipping or when a rug is ordered. All shipping charges are the responsibility of the customer or designer.

All deposits (minus the shipping) will be refunded upon receipt of the returned rug in good condition. REFUNDS CAN TAKE UP TO 30 days TO PROCESS.
NO REFUNDS AND NO RETURNS on SPECIAL ORDER RUGS (rugs requested by the customer to be placed on the loom in Nepal or Tibet or any country, custom size or standard size).
