5. Returns and Refunds

  • Overview

    Knot Your Average Grain ("KYAG") creates made-to-order, personalized products. Because most items are custom engraved or built to customer specifications, returns and refunds are limited as outlined below.

    Order Changes & Cancellations

    • Order changes (design details, spelling, dates, rank/unit info, etc.) must be requested as soon as possible after placing your order.

    • Once production begins, we may be unable to make changes.

    • If you need to cancel an order, contact us immediately. If work has already started, a cancellation may not be possible and may only qualify for a partial refund.

    Returns (Custom / Personalized Items)

    • All personalized and custom-made items are final sale and are not eligible for return or refund due to the nature of engraving and custom production.

    Returns (Non-Custom Items)

    If an item is not personalized (rare for KYAG), it may be eligible for return on a case-by-case basis.

    • To request a return, contact us within 7 days of delivery.

    • Items must be unused and in original packaging.

    • Shipping costs are not refundable.

    Damaged, Defective, or Incorrect Orders

    ·         We will review and, when appropriate, offer a repair, replacement, or remake.

    Incorrect Address

    Address changes must be handled before your order ships.

    • No returns are accepted for change-of-address requests once an item has shipped.

    • Once your item has shipped, we can no longer make changes to the order or shipping address.

    • Please contact the shipping carrier with your tracking information.

    • If a package is delivered to the wrong address due to an address change request that was not confirmed by email, before shipping, a refund cannot be given.

    • An address change is only guaranteed if you receive a return email from our team confirming the change.
