      In London, you can leave shopping bags and coats at the 24/7 customer services Lounge on 4. This costs £3 but is free of charge if you are leaving Selfridges shopping bags. We are not able to store any luggage (such as suitcases, backpacks and holdalls). All items stored must be collected on the same day.

      All items are stored at owner's risk. We reserve the right to search any items stored with us.

So, whether you've just bought the latest 75” TV that can't be lifted or you don't want to be weighed down with all your fabulous purchases as you head out for dinner, we offer a range of delivery options to suit you.

    • Electrical items - how do I recycle them?

      What is WEEE?
      The Waste Electrical or Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive requires countries to maximise separate collection and environmentally friendly processing of all electrical equipment.

      Why recycle?
      Unwanted electrical equipment is the UK's fastest growing type of waste. Many electrical items can be repaired or recycled, saving natural resources and the environment. If you do not recycle electrical equipment, it will end up in landfill where hazardous substances will leak out and cause soil and water contamination – harming wildlife and also human health.

      Selfridges are proud to support your local authority in providing local recycling facilities for electrical equipment.

      To remind you that old electrical equipment can be recycled, it is now marked with the cross-out wheeled bin symbol. Please do not throw any electrical equipment (including those marked with this symbol) in your bin.

      Recycling your old electricals is easy 
      Recycle your electrical and electronic devices free at your local recycling centre. To find your nearest centre, visit the Recycle More website and type in your postcode.

      How are we helping? 
      In the UK, distributors including retailers must provide a system which allows all customers buying new electrical equipment the opportunity to recycle their old items free of charge. As a responsible retailer, we have met the requirements placed on us by financially supporting the national network of WEEE recycling centres established by local authorities. This is achieved through membership of the national Distributor Take-back scheme (DTS).

      To find out more information on WEEE recycling and to locate your nearest recycling centre please visit the Recycle More website.

      Engraving is available at Timpson's (Lower Ground Floor) in our London store. Call 0207318 3717. Engraving is also available at Manchester Exchange Square.

      From book signings to beauty launches, there is always something going on in store. Keep an eye on our events calendar, or sign up to our mailing list to make sure you never miss out.

    • Lost property - I think I may have left an item in store. What do I do next?

      If an item has been found or handed in it will be passed to Security for secure storage for a short period of time. Call us on 0800 123 400 (overseas callers +44 (0)207 160 6222) and ask for Lost Property.

  • International

    • How can I see if products are eligible for international delivery?

      Most, but not all our products are available for international delivery. We have included an international delivery icon on each product page so you can be sure.

      You can also filter all gallery pages to see the products which are eligible for international delivery. Simply apply the filter on the left hand side and you will only see products eligible for international delivery.

      If you put products which are not eligible for international delivery in your basket and proceed to checkout then you will be notified of this and can either remove these products from your basket or save them for later. You must select one of these options to be able to proceed through checkout.

    • How can I see if my country is available for international delivery?

      We are regularly adding new countries to our international delivery list. For a full list of countries including costs and times please check our International Dispatch & Delivery page.

    • What currencies can I pay in?

      You can currently pay in British Pounds, US Dollars, Hong Kong Dollars, Chinese Yuan, Australian Dollars, Euros, Canadian Dollars, Singapore Dollars, Japanese Yen, South Korean Won and Taiwanese Dollars.

      To select your currency, use the flag in the header or footer to change your location. You can still deliver to any country at checkout. The price you pay may vary depending on delivery country – which we will let you know at checkout.

    • What VAT is charged on my order?

      If you are buying goods for delivery to an EU address, then we will charge UK VAT where applicable. The price is presented on the Euro prices on the website. If you are shopping in a different currency, UK VAT will be updated when you select an EU delivery address at checkout.

      If you are buying goods for delivery to a non-EU address, then we will deduct UK VAT where applicable. This is already reflected in the prices on the website if you are browsing a non-EU country. If you are browsing a UK or EU country, UK VAT will be updated when you select a non-EU delivery address at checkout.

    • What local tax and duties are charged?

      If you are buying goods for delivery to a non-EU address, we deduct UK VAT from the product price, and we will add local import duties at checkout that are applicable in order to deliver the goods to your country.

    • What payment methods can I use?

      Most of our payment methods are available for all currencies (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Delta, Visa Electron, Maestro credit and debit cards and PayPal).

      Please note, evouchers and gift cards can currently only be used in British Pounds and Alipay can currently only be used in British Pounds, CNY, US Dollars and Hong Kong Dollars.

      Please note, evouchers and gift cards can currently only be used in British Pounds and Alipay can currently only be used in British Pounds or Chinese Yen.

    • What do I do if I want to return my goods?

    • How much will delivery cost?

      Delivery to the EU costs £15 and delivery to countries outside of the EU costs £25. For more information on our International delivery service, visit our International delivery page.

    • How long will my delivery take? What happens if my delivery is late?

    • Can I track my order?

      Information about delivery times and how to track your order is available in our Dispatch & Delivery section.

    • What happens if my order gets stuck in customs?

      Selfridges and our delivery partner aim to handle all customs documentation and formalities, including payment of any applicable tax and duties on your behalf. Sometimes this process can take longer and orders may be held by local customs. In that event, we will try wherever possible to resolve this issue, however, local customs may contact you as the designated importer. In that event - and if you require additional assistance call our 24/7 customer services team on 0800 123 400 (from the UK) or +44 (0)207 160 6222 (from overseas).

    • If I return goods, will I get refunded the local tax and duties I paid at checkout?

      Unfortunately we are not able to refund local tax and duties paid at checkout on deliveries to non-EU countries as these are charged by local governments and paid by Selfridges on your behalf. Certain countries operate schemes to reclaim any local tax and duties if you return goods and will require a specific application by you to your local government or authority.

    • I didn't receive a returns form in my parcel?

      You should have received a delivery note in your parcel and an international returns form if your address is outside of the EU. Returns information is printed on the back of this form. If you did not receive this in your parcel, we're sorry. Please contact our Customer Service team here or by calling 0800 123 400 (+44 (0)207 160 6222 from overseas) and they will be happy to help.

    • RESELLFRIDGES – how does the pre-loved resell service work?

      General questions

       

      What is RESELLFRIDGES? 

      RESELLFRIDGES is a new initiative that enables you to sell pre-loved designer bags from selected brands in exchange for Selfridges credits to spend in store or online. It’s just one way of helping to close the loop on unnecessary landfill waste.

      Which countries is this service available? 

      At the moment, our resell platform is only available in the UK and Europe, excluding Switzerland, Iceland, Norway and Liechtenstein.

      Which brands do you accept?

      We currently only accept bags from the following brands: Alexander McQueen, Alexander Wang, Balenciaga, Bottega Veneta, Burberry, Bulgari, Cartier, Celine, Chanel, Chloé, Dior, Dolce & Gabbana, Fendi, Givenchy, Gucci, Hermès, Jacquemus, Loewe, Louis Vuitton, MCM, Miu Miu, Mulberry, Off-White, Prada, Salvatore Ferragamo, Stella McCartney, The Row and Valentino.

      Watch this space, though – the list is growing all the time! 

      Your bag does not have to been bought from RESELLFRIDGES originally; you can sell any bag from our list of accepted brands.

      Can I sell more than one bag? 

      Yes. You may submit as many bags as you want, but you will need to fill in a new submission form for each item via selfridges.com.

      Who do I contact if I have additional questions? 

      The RESELLFRIDGES Customer Services team are here to help. Please send an email to [email protected] or call us on +44 (0) 800 123 400, or if calling from abroad, dial +44 (0) 20 7160 6222, between 8am and 11pm.

       

      Submission & quotes

      How do I know which size category my bag falls into? 

      Please refer to our size guidelines: 

      XS: 20 x 17 x 13 cm

      S: 25 x 19 x 15 cm 

      M: 30 x 21 x 17 cm 

      L: 35 x 23 x 18 cm 

      XL: 40 x 25 x 19 cm

      I’ve submitted my bag(s), when will I receive my quote? 

      We will send you a quote via email within 4 working days (Monday to Friday, excluding holidays).

      How is the price I’m quoted for my bag(s) determined? 

      We work with a team of valuation experts to evaluate your bag. The quote that you are given will be a competitive trade price that is based on several factors, including brand, authenticity, condition and the demand for that particular style.

      Will any fees be subtracted from the price that I am quoted? 

      No. The price that you are quoted is the amount that you will receive in RESELLFRIDGES credit.

      What happens if I’m not happy with the quote? 

      Unfortunately, at this time, all prices quoted are final and are not subject to further negotiation. If you are not happy with our quote, simply reply to the email and decline our offer. There is no obligation to accept our quote.

      How do I accept the quote that you have given me? 

      To accept our quote, simply reply to the email we sent you with details of the offer. You have 14 days to accept or decline our offer. (If you still wish to sell your item after the offer has expired, you will need to re-submit photos of your bag to receive a new quote.)

      Can the original price I’m quoted change after you receive my bag(s)? 

      No, the price you are quoted is non-negotiable and a one-time offer. If your bag is not selected for resale, we will send it back to you, free of charge.

      Why haven’t I received my quote yet? 

      From the date of submission, quotes may take up to 4 days to be confirmed. If you have not received a quote after this time, please send an email to [email protected] or call us on +44 (0) 800 123 400, or if calling from abroad +44 (0) 20 7160 6222 between 8am and 11pm.

      How long is my quote valid for?

      Your quote is valid for 14 days. If you still wish to sell your item after the offer has expired, you will need to re-submit photos of your bag to receive a new quote.

      I’ve been asked to send more photos – why? 

      Additional photos are sometimes needed to ensure the team of valuation experts give you the most accurate quote possible. If additional photos have been requested, we will not be able to proceed with the evaluation of your bag until they have been received.

       

      Credit

      How and when will I be paid? 

      Payment will be given in RESELLFRIDGES credits on a Selfridges eGift Card, which you can spend in store or at selfridges.com. Once you have accepted your quote and the valuation team has successfully received and verified your bag, the credit will be transferred onto a Selfridges eGift Card within 12 days of it arriving with the valuation experts. These credits can be used immediately and do not expire. Unfortunately, at this time, we are unable to offer any other forms of payment (e.g. money). We will update you in the future if this changes.

      What is RESELLFRIDGES credit and what can I use it for? 

      RESELLFRIDGES credit is ‘money’ that will be added to a Selfridges eGift Card, which you can spend in store or at selfridges.com.

      I haven’t received my RESELLFRIDGES credit yet – why? 

      If you haven’t received your RESELLFRIDGES credit yet, it is likely that your item is still being evaluated. You will receive an email notification as soon as your credit has been processed (this normally takes no more than 12 days from when the bag arrived with the valuation experts).

      Can I transfer my RESELLFRIDGES credit to family or friends? 

      Unfortunately, RESELLFRIDGES credit isn’t transferable.

      How long will my Selfridges eGift Card be valid for? 

      Don’t worry, your Selfridges eGift Card will never expire.

      Verification & returns

      What happens when you receive my item? How long does the process take? 

      The team of valuation experts will assess your bag as soon as they receive it. Once it has passed their quality checks, we will transfer the credits to a Selfridges eGift Card, which you can spend in store or at selfridges.com. This should take no longer than 12 days from the time your item reached the experts.

      How do you authenticate the bags? 

      We work with a team of third-party valuation experts to ensure the authentication of the items we receive. We have a rigorous process to ensure that all items meet our authenticity standards.

      Why would my bag not pass the evaluation? 

      Your item may not be approved by the valuation experts if it differs from what was expected, based on the photos and information that you submitted. Some examples of why your bag may not be approved are listed below:

      · your bag is not a style we’re currently accepting.

      · your bag is not in a suitable condition.

      · the valuation experts can’t confirm the authenticity of your bag.

      · your bag is from a brand we don’t stock.

      · Your bag is from a category we don’t stock.

      What happens to my bag if it is not approved?

      You will receive an email from us if your item is not approved by the team of valuation experts. We will send your bag back via DHL to the same address that the pick-up was arranged from, free of charge, within five working days. When the item is delivered, we will require a signature for tracking confirmation.

      What if I change my mind and decide that I want my bag to be returned? 

      Unfortunately, once you have accepted our quote and sent us your bag, we are unable to cancel the purchase of your bag. Please see our Terms of Service for more information.
