If the engraving doesn't match your order or the item arrives damaged, we remake and reship it free within 1 business day, or give you a full refund. Just send us a few photos within 7 days of delivery. Spotted a typo yourself? Message us within 1 hour of ordering and we'll fix it before engraving begins.
