 Where is your vintage sourced?

-By definition, vintage items are pre-owned goods that date back 20 years or later. Vintage is pre-worn/used and occasionally one of a kind.  We source our vintage section from many places, all over the world. We thrift shop on a daily basis and work with reselllers who supply us vintage in bulk.  Vintage is sold as-is and is 100% pre-loved, unless noted otherwise. We recommend that you dry clean pretty much everything, especially vintage. Or do like we do, and give it a few dust beatings in the wind.

Return Policy

If you don't like your items for any reason, you can submit your return for a store credit within 30 days of receiving your order. Clearance items and lingerie are final sale. Once we receive your return, it can take up to 7 business days for the store credit to hit your inbox. Use this credit to snag the right size, different color, or whatever your heart desires. Plus, you can hold onto your credit because it never expires. The store credit does not include original shipping costs paid. Items sent back used or passed the 30 day mark are seized. 

 

Defective items will receive a replacement free of charge.  In the small chance that the wrong items are sent, if still in stock, the original items ordered will be resent free of charge upon return of the incorrect item. A return label will be provided to the customer. If the original items are not in stock, a store credit will be issued. Please understand we are human and it is our nature to make mistakes (however we aim for perfection when it comes to packaging your goodies). Shipping charges are final and cannot be refunded.

Returned Packages

Domestic: If your package is returned to us, we will notify you immediately so we can get the package back to you ASAP after return costs are paid. The customer is held responsible for the re-shipment costs under any circumstance. If not paid, a store credit will be issued. International: International packages are not returned to the US. When making a purchase at Alien Outfitters the customer assumes all risk of confiscation en route. If customs should confiscate or return the merchandise to us, the customer is still responsible for all shipping charges including return shipping charges.
