In most cases, shoppers base their entire experience on ease of shopping, point of sale, and, if needed, the return process. According to a report by Klarna, 84 percent of customers will not return to purchase from a retailer if they had a negative and troublesome return experience. Because of this, companies like Lamps Plus offer a return policy to help make the process as smooth as possible.

The company has a strict 60-day return policy; however, if you check and inspect your purchase when you get it home, returning your item in time should be no problem.

How to return a Lamps Plus item 

When you receive your Lamps Plus order or make a store purchase and bring it home you should first open up the package and thoroughly inspect the item. If you find anything you are not satisfied with, immediately start the return process. The longer you wait, faster the 60-day return deadline passes.

To return or exchange in-store purchases, you can go to the store with your sales receipt, form of payment for the original purchase, and the item to return in its original packaging. The design associate at the store will walk you through the process and offer you your refund or help you select another item. 

First, call customer service for an RMA if the item was purchased online. You need the order number and store location for the return to get the RMA. Then, when you have the RMA, go to the store with the item to return, its original packaging, packing slip, and the credit card the item was purchased with. From this point, the return process will be the same as an in-store purchase, where the design associate will help you return or exchange the item. 

Items purchased through third-party sales sites, such as Walmart, eBay, or Amazon.com, must be returned using these companies' returns processes. Check each website for specific return policies and procedures. For example, to return a Lamps Plus item purchased on Amazon.com can be started through your "Order History." Then, click on the thing you want to return, and select "return an item." The website will walk you through the process, tell you where and how to send the item back, and estimate how long the process and refund should take.
