Returns & Refunds

Stock products — 30-day returns

  • Unused stock items (standard drumsticks, accessories and merch) can be returned within 30 days of delivery for a full refund or exchange. Items must be unused, in their original packaging and in resalable condition.
  • To start a return, email hello@londondrumsticks.co.uk with your order number. We will confirm the return address and process your refund within 14 days of receiving the goods.

Custom drumsticks

  • Custom sticks are hand-turned and printed to your exact specification, so they are exempt from change-of-mind returns under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013.
  • That said, we stand behind every pair: if your custom sticks arrive damaged, faulty, or do not match the approved digital proof, contact us within 14 days with photos and we will remake or refund them — your choice, at no cost.
  • Artwork is only sent to production after you approve the digital proof, so please check spelling and layout carefully at proof stage.

Promotional B-Stock

  • B-Stock sticks are sold at a reduced price specifically because they may carry small cosmetic imperfections. Cosmetic marks are therefore not grounds for return, but structural faults are always covered.

Faulty or damaged items

  • If anything arrives damaged or develops a manufacturing fault within 6 months, we will replace or refund it. Normal playing wear — chips, dents and breakage from use — is not a fault; drumsticks are consumables and even ours eventually give in.

Refunds

  • Refunds go back to the original payment method within 5–10 working days of approval. Original shipping is refunded on faulty items and full-order returns; return postage on change-of-mind returns is at your cost.
  • Free gifts earned via a spend threshold must be returned if a partial return drops your order below that threshold, otherwise the gift value is deducted from the refund.

Beat Tokens & discounts

  • Tokens earned on a refunded order are removed. If you paid partly with a discount code, refunds are proportional to what you actually paid.

Delivery timescales and charges are covered in our Shipping Policy.
