Upon making payment for your Bag Subscription, you will be prompted to select all three or six Bags to be rented throughout your Bag Subscription Term. All Bags are subject to availability.
You may change the Bag selected for the following month of your Bag Subscription Term up until four (4) days before the Monthly Start Date (defined below).
You may not select the same Bag to be rented for two consecutive months of your Bag Subscription Term.
You may choose the delivery date of your first Bag. The start date of your Bag Subscription shall be from the chosen delivery date of your first Bag (“Bag Subscription Start Date”).
You will be able to rent your first Bag for a period of four weeks from either: (i) the Bag Subscription Start Date (if it’s your first Bag of your Bag Subscription); or (ii) the chosen delivery date of that month’s Bag (if it is the second Bag onwards of your Bag Subscription) (both known as “Monthly Start Date”) for a period of four weeks (“Bag Rental Period”).
All Bags offered via the Subscription are in new or pre-owned condition. Any signs of wear and tear on a Bag are described and photographed in the relevant product listing on the Selfridges Rental Platform.
We supply the Bags to you under the Bag Subscription Service for private use only and not for commercial use.
All of our Bags are 100% genuine and are certified by external authentication services.
The Bags are as described in the listings on Selfridges Rental, however, the Bags may differ slightly from these photographs. By renting a Bag through our Bag Subscription Service, you agree that these photographs are only indicative of the exact quality of the Bag.
All of our Bags are specially cleaned and maintained after each time they have been used by Members.
All of our Bags are forensically marked and checked via RFID tags for authenticity each time they are sent and received back between Bag Rental Periods from Bag Subscribers.
We will only deliver the Bag to the address authorised by you when signing up for the Bag Subscription Service.
Each Bag will be sent via our nominated delivery provider on a tracked and signed-for delivery service.
You have two (2) days to return the Bag in your possession back to us, commencing from the date after your Bag Rental Period expires.
You must return the Bag to us via the pre-paid labels provided to you on delivery of the Bag.
You must return the original Bag to us in the packaging provided on delivery.
You will be informed of the date by which each Bag must be returned by post (“Bag Return Date”). If you fail to return the Bag via the pre-paid method by the Bag Return Date, we:
will not dispatch your next Bag to you; and
reserve the right to charge you a late fee equal to £25 per calendar day (the “Late Fee”) calculated from the day after the Bag Return Date, until the date by which the Bag has been returned and we have provided you with confirmed receipt of the Bag.
If the Bag has not been returned by four days after your next Bag Rental Period was due to start, your Bag Subscription will be paused indefinitely and your upcoming Bag bookings will be released to other Bag Subscribers. You will continue to accrue Late Fees until the Bag is returned.
Any Bags not returned after 4 weeks from the Bag Return Date will be considered as not returned, and therefore the Member will be charged the Replacement Value of the Bag and your details will be passed to a third party debt collection company to recover the Bag and the Replacement Value.
Once your Bag has been returned to us, and it has passed our condition checks, we’ll arrange delivery of your next Bag. Your next Bag Rental Period will begin on the chosen delivery date of your next Bag.
Your Bag Subscription automatically includes damage protection, which covers minor damage and wear and tear of any Bag you rent through the Bag Subscription Service up to a repair cost of £50, such repairs costs to be solely determined by us (“Bag Protection Cover”). The Bag Protection Cover does not cover loss or theft of a Bag during your Bag Rental Period or damage beyond repair to a Bag during your Bag Rental Period.
Once a Bag is returned and inspected by us, if any damage or wear and tear is found to be more severe than what can be covered under the Bag Protection Cover, you will be charged directly via your payment method for the fees to repair such damages (the “Damage Fee”). We will inform you of the cost of the Damage Fees applicable to you for the relevant Bag that has been damaged.
If the Bag is deemed by us to be damaged beyond repair then you are immediately liable for the Replacement Value of the Bag and we reserve our right to terminate your Bag Subscription for this reason.
In case of loss, theft or any damage during the Bag Rental Period, you are required to contact us immediately on [email protected].
We will conduct an investigation into any counterfeit, lost or stolen Bags during your Bag Subscription and may:
(a) inform the relevant authorities;
(b) report the Bag(s) as stolen; and
(c) take steps to recover the Replacement Value from you.
You agree that if you return a counterfeit bag to us in the place of the original Bag we sent to you, we will:
(a) consider the bag to be stolen;
(b) take steps to recover the Replacement Value of the bag from you; and
(c) notify the relevant authorities.
If you are dissatisfied with the Bag Subscription Service, or the terms of this Bag Subscription Agreement, your only remedy under these Bag Subscription Terms shall be to terminate your Bag Subscription and return our Bags and to discontinue your use of the Bag Subscription. Without limiting the preceding sentence, we shall have no liability for any failure or delay resulting from any matter beyond our reasonable control.

In addition to the above Terms, the following provisions shall apply to you whilst using the Selfridges Rental Offering in the capacity of Buyer.
When you agree to Purchase any Product, you will entering into a contract to Buy directly from Selfridges Rental through the Selfridges Rental Platform and the contractual relationship in relation to the sale will be only between the Buyer and Selfridges Rental.
A Buyer may order Products by clicking on the items they wish to Purchase and then following the prompts that will appear on-screen. The Buyer may check and correct any input errors up until the point at which they Purchase the Product(s) by clicking the "Buy Now" button and completing the payment process. At this point, an offer is submitted by the Buyer and if accepted by Selfridges Rental, a contract between the Buyer and Selfridges Rental ("Contract") is formed, and Selfridges Rental is under a legal duty to supply the Buyer with Product(s) that are in conformity with the Contract.
By entering into a Contract, the Buyer warrants that they:
a) have read the Product description in the Listing and accepted these Terms before making the request to Buy a Product;
b) understand that Selfridges Rental is providing access to the Selfridges Rental Platform and associated intermediary services as agent, and that the supply of the Bought Products is made by Selfridges Rental;
c) have kept their Account information correct and accurate and the Account information will not change until the Products have been received;
d) will not engage in any activity which constitutes Fee Avoidance (which shall be determined by Selfridges Rental in its sole discretion);
e) have sufficient and available funds to cover the payment for the Fees relating to the Purchase and any associated costs;
f) will use a reputable courier or postal service and use a first-class tracked and signed for service for the purposes of returning a Product to Selfridges Rental (if otherwise agreed); and
g) are not using the Selfridges Rental Offering on behalf of any other person.
If a Buyer purchases a Product from Selfridges Rental, the Buyer has the right to cancel any purchase at any time before its delivery and up to 14 days afterwards, beginning on the day after the Product (in its entirety) is delivered to the Buyer. If the Buyer cancels, they will receive a refund of the Purchase Price and other Fees in accordance with the refunds policy (see below).
To cancel a Purchase, a Buyer must clearly inform Selfridges Rental, preferably by email to the following address [email protected], giving the Buyer’s name, address and order reference; or by completing and submitting the cancellation form included within the parcel, also available at request on the Selfridges Rental Platform at https://help.selfridgesrental.com.
A Buyer then has a further 14 days after the day the Buyer notifies Selfridges Rental of the cancellation to return the Products in the same condition in which the Buyer received them (which does not interfere with the Buyer’s right to take any reasonable steps to examine the Product(s) and make sure they conform to the order).
Products must be returned to Selfridges Rental. Buyers have a legal obligation to take reasonable care of the Product(s) while in the Buyer’s possession. If a Buyer fails to comply with this obligation, Selfridges Rental may have a right to deduct the cost of any deterioration (due, for example, to your having used the Product(s)), up to the Purchase Price of the Product(s), from the refund to which the Buyer is otherwise entitled.
To return the Product(s), the Buyer should package the parcel securely (making sure they include a note of the Buyer’s name and address (enclosing any returns slip, (if provided) inside the parcel) and then return it to Selfridges Rental (as applicable), either by courier or by recorded delivery mail or other form of certified mail or, if the Product(s) are too bulky to return by mail, then by a suitable carrier, to the returns address stated in the Buyer’s receipt.
Buyers are advised to take out enough postal/carriage insurance to cover the value of the contents. Buyers should retain proof of posting/despatch and tracking information until the refund has been processed. The Buyer will be responsible for the cost and risk of returning the Product(s).
Details of the consumer rights described above, and an explanation of how to exercise them, are provided with the Buyer’s receipt. Nothing in this section affects any customer’s legal rights.
For any Buyer that has cancelled a purchase from Selfridges Rental within the 14-day cooling-off period, any refund due to the Buyer will be processed as soon as possible and, in any case, within 14 days after the day on which Selfridges Rental receives the Product(s) back or, if earlier, the day on which Selfridges Rental receive evidence that the Buyer has returned the Product(s) to the returns address (see clause above).
The Buyer will be refunded the Purchase Price paid in full (subject to any deduction Selfridges Rental is entitled to make due to the Buyer’s use of or damage to the Product(s) (if any)), including the Delivery Fee. However, the Buyer will not be refunded the cost of returning the Product(s). If the Buyer received any promotional or other discount at the time of Purchase, any refund will only reflect the amount actually paid by the Buyer. Refunds are made using the same Payment Method originally used to pay for a purchase, unless agreed otherwise.
Many Products for Sale on the Selfridges Rental Platform are second hand. This means that they may not be in perfect condition. However, if any Product Purchased does not comply with the description in the Listing and photographs provided by Selfridges Rental, the Buyer may have one or more legal remedies available, depending on when the Buyer makes Selfridges Rental aware of the problem, in accordance with their legal rights.
A Product will be considered as not complying with the description and photographs provided by Selfridges Rental in the Listing when the Product received in comparison to the description and photographs is: an incorrect size; the wrong colour; a counterfeit item; severely damaged (including, without limitation, stains, smells, holes); the wrong condition; or incorrect or missing.
For the avoidance of doubt, this will not be the case where the Product is not the right fit (but the size was correctly indicated in the Listing), or the differences between the Product received by the Buyer and the description and photographs in the Listing only include minor and negligible differences that do not affect the use and look of the Product as reasonably expected by a Buyer based on the description and photographs.
If you, as a Buyer, believe that you have received a Product that does not comply with the description and photographs provided by Selfridges Rental in the Listing, you should inform Selfridges Rental as soon as possible, preferably in writing, giving your name, address and order reference.
Nothing in this section affects any Customer’s statutory rights as a consumer which cannot be excluded.
