Sales and Promotions Policy

Standardized Exclusions:

Many of the promotions and sales run on Swap.com have a standardized set of exclusions. Please note that these standard exclusions include, but are not limited to, the following:

Select shoes, Clearance items, Swap Saver Clearance items, New arrivals, and Hot Brands.

In order to apply any promotion or sale to your order you must be logged into a Swap.com account. One promotional code per order. 

Promotions do not stack, and the highest sale value will always be applied. 

Promotions cannot be applied to previously placed orders.

Free Shipping Promotion:

As an everyday promotion Swap.com offers free shipping on all, non-wholesale, orders whose value equals $99.00 or more, (calculated before shipping and tax). This Promotion will automatically be applied to your cart if your purchase qualifies.

Sales Prices in Cart:

All Swap.com promotions and sales have strict expiration dates and times. As such if a sale ends before you have checked out, the prices of items in your shopping cart may automatically revert back to their non sale prices. If this occurs we cannot apply the sale or promotional prices onto the items.

Sales and Refunds:

All Swap.com promotions and sales have strict expiration dates and times. Sale prices are only valid if you checkout before the promotion or sale expires.

Refunds are generally issued 10 business days after arriving at our fulfillment center. We cannot guarantee that a refund will be issued before a promotion or sale has ended.

If you would like to partake in a promotion or sale we recommend purchasing before the expiration, if a promotion or sale has ended before your refund is issued we cannot reinstate the promotion or sale.

Third Party Website Promotions:

Swap.com does not currently work with any third party coupon websites. Our promotions are only advertised directly through our mailing list and website. Promotions found on third party websites may not work and will not be honored. 

Returned Extra Items:

In the rare event that you include extra items in a return that were not originally from Swap.com, you must contact Swap.com customer support with a detailed description of the item before your return shipment arrives at our facility, so that our team can be made aware of the issue. Swap.com is not liable for any additional items sent back. Any additional items, that did not originate from Swap.com, in a return shipment will be discarded automatically upon receipt and inspection of the package. 

Returning Swap Saver Items:

Swap Saver items can be returned if the Swap Saver item was:

  • Missing from the shipment
  • The wrong Item
  • Differs Considerably from the description on Swap.com
  • Damaged during shipment

A refund will only be issued for Swap Saver items if the listed return reason is found to be accurate. Swap Saver items that are returned are immediately recycled after inspection and cannot be requested back.

Swap Savers Items:

Swap Savers Items are non-refundable*, non-returnable*, final sale Clearance items. 

Swap Savers is a program we created to prevent more items from ending up in landfills. These items have reached our deepest discount levels available to assist in “saving them” and finding them a new home before we remove them from Swap.com and recycle them via other means.

*please see the swap saver section of our return policy for specifics.

Cancellation Policy:

Once an order has been placed our system provides a one hour time in which the order can be cancelled. If you need to cancel your order please reach out to our customer support team and they will attempt to cancel the order, although this cannot be guaranteed. 

Please note we cannot cancel individual items within an order, only the entire order.

In the event that an item from your order could not be located within our facility, or was found to have damage on it before shipping; Swap.com may cancel the item from your order and issue you a refund to the original form of payment. 

Store Credit Policy

Store Credit does not expire. Store Credit cannot be changed to another form of payment.

To use your store credit you will simply need to be logged into your account containing the Store Credit. You can review your available Store Credit balance on the "My profile" page of your account. The credit shown there will automatically be applied to your next purchase while logged into this account.

If you checked out as a “guest” and were refunded Store Credit you will receive an email with a Store Credit code to be entered on your Swap.com Account. The credit code you received will need to be applied to your account by navigating to the "My Profile” page of your account and selecting the blue text that says, "Add” please enter your code here, be advised that it may take up to 30 seconds to process this request. You should then see your available store credit.

Store credit is not a discount, it is treated as a form of payment.

Tips for Measuring

Bust - Measure the bust line at the fullest part of your chest.

Waist - Wrap the measuring tape around your torso, at the smallest part of your waist. Typically this is an inch or so above your belly button and is also known as the natural waistline.

We also provide the measurements for inseam and length on many of our items. These are defined as follows:

Inseam - measured from the crotch of the garment to the hem of the leg opening.  
Length - taken from the top of the waistband to the bottom of the leg opening.

Many different clothing brands have different definitions for sizes. A size M in one brand may be much bigger than a M in another. To assist you in determining how sizes run on Swap.com, we have provided the measurements for our women’s and men's mannequins below. Each item is photographed on the mannequin that correlates to the size on its tag, so you can see if the item runs large or small.

Small 32.5in 22in 29in

Medium 36.5 25.5 29.5

Large 37 27 30

The Swap.com merchandising team evaluates each item sent in for condition and quality. Any items that do not meet our firm acceptance criteria are rejected. Ratings of condition categories are listed in order as:

New with Tags (NWT): Items that look brand new and still have their original tags or packaging.

Like New: Items in excellent condition, but without the original tags or packaging.

Good Condition: Secondhand items in great shape! No stains or defects.

Fair Condition: Secondhand items in usable shape with some noticeable signs of day to day wear.

All items are inspected and listed by Swap.com's professional merchandisers. Therefore, the listing details, including the condition, are completely objective. Please see the Condition ratings for items section above for more details on our condition criteria. We are a third-party with no bias to whether an item is accepted or not.

Items are stored and shipped from the Swap.com fulfillment center in Rocky Mount, NC. All items listed on the site are available for purchase.

The filters on Swap.com will help you narrow down items to find exactly what you are looking for.

You can filter by item type, size, brand, colors, condition or price. Within the filter section, check one or more boxes to show only items that match these search results. For faster results type the brand name into the search area within the brand filter.

You can also use the search bar to query a selection of items by brand, size, or type. These selections can be combined in the search query to be even more specific:

For example: Girls Size 4 Dress or Men’s M Shorts.

Return, Exchange & Refunds

You may view our Return Policy at the following link:

RETURNS & REFUNDS POLICY

Because most of our products are sent in from different sellers, Swap.com does not offer exchanges. In the event an item does not work out for any reason you may return the item, for more detailed information please see our Return Policy.

Please note once an item has been ordered it cannot be exchanged for a different item, even if the order has not been shipped. 

Shipping & Tracking

Shipping Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1) I placed my order and the website says it is processing, why?

A1) From the moment your order is placed until it has been packaged and shipped it will state “Processing” as the status for the order. As long as the order is in a processing status it means your order is being worked on in our warehouse.  

Q2) I Placed my order 2-3 weeks ago and I haven't received any tracking information yet. Where is my order?

A2) Once your order has been picked, sorted, and packaged in our warehouses, an email will be sent to you with your tracking information. If you have not received tracking information yet it is likely because your order is still awaiting processing. 

Q3) I placed my order but have only received part of my order, where is the rest of it?

A3) Swap.com has multiple warehouses that we ship from, often times one of our warehouses may be running ahead of the others. If this occurs you may receive part of your order anywhere from a few days to a few weeks before the remainder of your order is shipped, especially if there is a delay in one warehouse but not the other.

 

Typically the shipping address on an order can’t be changed once the order has been submitted because the shipping label is created at the time of the order being placed.

If you contact us, we can attempt to change the shipping address, but can’t guarantee that we will be able to do so. Once an order has been processed for shipping, we won’t be able to change the address.

In general, during checkout you can change your delivery address on the shipping page before you pay.

If the order cannot be properly delivered it will be returned to us and refunded upon return.

Swap.com is not currently equipped to work with buyers residing outside of the 48 contiguous US states. We apologize for any inconvenience.
