Welcome to ELC! These Terms and Conditions govern your purchase of products from us. By placing an order, you agree to these terms. Please read them carefully before making a purchase. If you have any questions, contact us using the details provided at the end of this document.
1. Product Information
- Product Descriptions
At ELC, we strive to provide detailed and accurate descriptions of all our products. Each product is handcrafted with care, which means no two items are exactly alike. Slight variations in color, texture, or stitching may occur and are considered part of the product’s uniqueness rather than a defect. Customers are encouraged to review product descriptions, specifications, and photos carefully before making a purchase.
- Pricing
All prices listed on our website are in USD and include applicable taxes unless stated otherwise. Shipping costs, customs duties, and other fees will be calculated and displayed during the checkout process. While we strive for accuracy, pricing errors may occasionally occur. If a pricing error affects your order, we will notify you as soon as possible to resolve the issue.
- Product Availability
Our inventory is constantly updated, but product availability cannot be guaranteed. Items that are in high demand may sell out quickly. If a product is unavailable at the time of your order, we will inform you promptly and offer a suitable alternative or a full refund.
2. Placing an Order
- Order Confirmation
After placing an order, you will receive an email confirmation that includes details of your purchase. Please review this email to ensure all information is accurate. If there are any discrepancies, contact us immediately to make corrections. This email serves as proof of your order and should be retained for your records.
- Payment
We accept multiple payment methods, including major credit cards, debit cards, and digital payment platforms. Payment must be made in full at the time of checkout to process your order. All transactions are securely processed through trusted payment gateways, and we do not store your financial information.
- Order Processing
Orders are processed during our business hours (Monday through Friday, excluding holidays). Processing times typically range from 1 to 3 business days, depending on order volume. Orders placed on weekends or holidays will be processed on the next business day.
- Canceling an Order
If you need to cancel an order, contact us immediately. Cancellations can only be processed if the order has not yet been dispatched. Once an order is shipped, it cannot be canceled, but you may return the item following our return policy.
3. Shipping and Delivery
- Shipping Options
We offer multiple shipping methods to meet your needs. Shipping costs are calculated based on the size and weight of your order, as well as the delivery location. Options and associated costs will be displayed at checkout, allowing you to choose the method that best suits your requirements.
- Domestic and International Delivery
- Domestic Shipping: Delivery within the United States typically takes 3–7 business days, depending on the selected shipping method.
- International Shipping: Delivery times for international orders range from 7–21 business days, depending on the destination and customs processing.
Please note that international orders may be subject to customs duties, taxes, and fees, which are the responsibility of the customer.
- Delivery Timelines
While we strive to meet estimated delivery times, delays can occasionally occur due to unforeseen factors such as courier issues, weather disruptions, or customs processing. ELC is not responsible for delays beyond our control but will assist in tracking and resolving delivery issues when possible.
- Tracking Your Order
Once your order is shipped, you will receive an email with a tracking number and instructions for monitoring your shipment’s progress. It is your responsibility to track the delivery and ensure someone is available to receive the package.
- Shipping Issues
If your shipment is delayed, lost, or damaged in transit, please contact us promptly. We will work with the courier to investigate the issue and find a resolution. For items damaged during shipping, photographic evidence may be required.
4. Returns, Refunds, and Exchanges
- Return Eligibility
We want you to be completely satisfied with your purchase. If you are not happy with an item, you may return it within 30 days of delivery. To qualify for a return:
- The item must be unused and in its original condition.

To start the return process, contact our customer service team with your order details. You will receive instructions on where to send the item. Customers are responsible for the cost of return shipping unless the item is defective or we made an error with your order.
- Refund Process
Once we receive and inspect the returned item, we will issue a refund to your original payment method within 7–10 business days. Refunds will not include shipping fees unless the return is due to a mistake on our part.
- Exchanges
If you wish to exchange an item for a different size or style, contact us to check availability. If the requested item is unavailable, we will process a refund instead. Shipping costs for exchanges are the customer’s responsibility unless the exchange is due to an error on our part.
