We also may make a mistake causing unintended annoyance. We try to be always careful to ensure that the items delivered to you are in perfect condition. However, there is a remote possibility that:

- the item may be damaged during transit or

- there might be a manufacturing defect or

- that a different item is delivered to you by mistake.

In such and like cases we will refer to following terms for a mutual consent to resolve the issue.


Item Received in Damaged Condition / Manufacturing Defect or Wrong Item

If you have received a damaged item or if the item you received was not the item you ordered or if it was misrepresented on our site, please contact us by email within 24 hours of your receipt of the product. It is important that you save all packing materials as well as the item itself. When you reach us, we'll give you instructions on how to proceed.

- We will express ship a replacement item at the earliest possible with no extra shipping cost to you.

- If the original ordered item is no longer possible then we will request you to choose an alternate item and express ship the same to you with no extra shipping cost to you. We will communicate with you about your wishes to make sure you will be happy with the exchange.


Here Are Some Important & Helpful Guidelines on Returns

- Always email us first if you have a problem on atvenco@gmail.com.

- Always be sure to report your problem within 24 hours of receiving the item in question

- Never send back an item without consulting with us. It's very important that you DO NOT send the item back to us until you have verified with us and no credit or replacement shall be given on such items.

- Always report any and all problems associated with a single order/package delivery at the same time. Be as specific as possible when describing the problem, as all returned items are examined for defects / variations.

- Always return your items using registered airmail / courier as advised in our return authorization mail.

- Please return within 7 working days of confirmation from our end, and with original packing & in original condition (not worn, washed, used or altered items). Please ensure to include a copy of the invoice you received.

- We will examine the garment you return, figure out what went wrong, and take immediate steps to prevent such problems from recurrence.

- As safe delivery to you is our responsibility, in the same way sending back safely to us is your responsibility. If something happens in transit and the package doesn't get delivered to us, we cannot help you. So, make sure to send through suggested postal service in our return authorization mail only and forward the details to us and keep the airway bill or postal receipt till it gets delivered to us.

- Please mark the items as defective returns and not for sale and declare a low nominal value.


For any complaint / dissatisfaction with sizing and styling (all stitched items)

Be very careful while ordering and try to choose from standard sizes as given in our size chart. However, in case the product received does not confirm to the sizes as shown in our size chart at the time of ordering you may return the product as per the guidelines provided in this document.


Item availability failure

In case of multiple goods being ordered, if the delivery is not possible for certain items, customers will be requested to select alternate items or if no alternate selection is desired by customer then he/she will be promptly refunded against the non-delivered goods or services along with their shipping charges.


Credit Issuance

All credits to be posted to a customer's credit card account takes about 3 to 5 business days to be processed. The corresponding bank of the customers may take about 2 business days to actually post these to the customer's accounts from the date we processed the credits. Customers can check these credits in their next credit card statement.


Be Extra Alert when Accepting Parcel from Courier

If the outer packing is damaged or tampered with, do verify the items quality and quantity with invoice before accepting the package from the courier agency. In case of any discrepancy, either refuse to accept delivery or accept delivery only after putting suitable remark on the proof of delivery. Also, lodge proper complaint with the local office of the courier agency, so that we may pursue the matter.


Color & Description Disclaimer

The details of the products or product specifications (for instance weight, color, handwork details, size, etc.) quoted with the product displays are only approximate values. While every endeavor has been made to accurately reproduce colors, there may be minor variations in color of the actual product because of the nature of fabric dyes, weather at the time of dying and differences in display output due to lighting and digital photography and color settings and capabilities of monitors.

A customer must place an order keeping in mind this minor variation in color as seen on a computer screen against the actual color of the outfit received.

Atvenco firmly believes that all the customers who order online are aware that colors seen on a monitor will be slightly different as compared to the actual outfits or accessories ordered.

It is practically impossible for Atvenco to replicate the same colors on an outfit as seen on your monitor. A variation in the shade selected by you is considered as a normal practice as these garments have a tendency to reflect different shades of a color under different light and weather, type of camera used for photography or type and settings on the computer monitor. We wish to clarify and ascertain that every customer who orders any outfit from Atvenco is aware of this genuine problem.


While ordering on internet, we suggest that customers should be extra careful of following -

- Red, maroon and orange colors have a higher tendency to reflect a different shade than other colors. For example, even if you yourself try to photograph from a digital camera or scan a red garment, in most of the cases it will show either as maroon or orange on the computer monitor and vice versa. Though imaging technology has advanced, still no absolute solution to this problem is available at the moment.

- Many a times green and blue shades also overlap. same is the case with off-white, white and cream colors.

- Sea Green color sometimes looks Aqua blue and the other way around.

- Some fabrics like raw silk, khadi silk, cotton silk, south cotton, brocade have a textured effect where we can see the weaving & threads are visible in different directions which is an inherent characteristic or feature of that fabric and proof of its authenticity. These are not defects. This raw finish is the beauty of these fabrics.

- Handcrafted, hand dyed, hand printed, hand painted, hand embroidered, handloom, hand weaved products will always have minor differences when we compare them as they are not made by machines. Each piece will be unique. Handicraft artisans always try their best to make each piece better than the previous one. So, the product will always have minor variation keeping the same theme constant in artistic manner. The raw finish of the handicrafts cannot be compared with machine finished products as this raw finish is the beauty of the handicraft items.

- Color bleeding is yet another issue. A single piece of the modern-day fashion-oriented outfits is an outcome of many fabrics of different textures and fabric type. These are also hand dyed according to design requirements. It will be absolutely unfair to expect the fabrics not to bleed in the normal washing powder hand or machine wash. So, it is always and invariably recommended to have your dresses bought from us dry-cleaned.

- Beads and Sequences Missing or Coming off - we believe that customers who are ordering items with sequence and other beaded embroidery are aware of the fact that these shiny embellishments have a tendency to come off. Even with the best of handling and care this cannot be avoided altogether. Many a times during strict physical checking at the customs during transit, more than usual sequences and beads come off. Many a times it may happen that you open a box and find some pieces falling down on the floor. Or you wear the dress, in few hours you might lose some of them. Do not panic or over-react because if you look with a magnifying glass at any such dresses / sarees worn by others, you will most certainly find some pieces missing or almost at a state of falling down.


Notwithstanding, anything contained in this document or anywhere else in the site, please note that the fashion merchandise offered by our vendors, includes traded as well as self-manufactured products. In either case our vendors outsource all fabrics, accessories and material. They also outsource embroidery, dyeing, assembly and such other services which in many cases are not mechanized and mostly achieved by skilled hands. The products, as they would be, are a blend of qualities offered by many, from whom they outsource. In present days of highly fashion-oriented products, they create one single dress or other products using many fabrics/accessories procured from different suppliers thus making it extremely difficult to control quality. Although we are careful and make efforts to minimize quality issues, yet we cannot be held responsible for issues like color bleeding, breaking of buttons, beads, mirrors and many more such accessories, coming out or loosening of embroidery / stitching threads, bobbling and such other attire related issues which are far too many to be listed exhaustively. At best we can try and redress such issues to the extent possible. But in no case or situation, can such issues make us financially or legally liable.
