Damage + Return/Exchange Policy

The Cleopatra team puts a lot of hard work and effort into our products and ensuring you have a great shopping experience . We wish all delivers would arrive with zero issues but, that would be very difficult. We hope you don’t have issues with your products, but there may be times when you’ll receive a package and that something isn’t quite up to par. Here are the most common types of damages and our general process for handling them.

Most common issues

Issues affecting sound quality or playback including:

Scratches or scuffs that cause your needle to skip
Excessive noise, whooshes, or pops
Significant warpage (warped)
Locked grooves that prevent the needle from advancing beyond a certain point
We prioritize these issues and will send replacements when necessary (and while stock is available).

Some of these things are normal and are not considered to be damaged. If you are ever unsure, please email us and we’ll help determine what’s normal and what’s not.

Cosmetic issues including:

Seam splits (on the jackets, internal sleeves or clear sleeves)
Dinged or bent corners
Miscellaneous print defects and other imperfections
While it’s never ideal to receive products with minor cosmetic damages, we generally do not replace for these types of issues (unless it is severe).

Replacements/Exchanges

Replacements/Exchanges can only be made with items purchased directly from our web stores.

How we approach replacements

Most everything we produce is limited in quantity so we, unfortunately, are unable to replace everything. That said, we do hold some stock to send as replacements when warranted.

Generally speaking, we will replace things when the playback is impacted, or if cosmetic damage is severe (meaning, if something is crushed or damaged in multiple places).

15 Day Return/Exchange Policy for all items from the day item is delivered.
Some items can not be returned if they are opened. These include cds, dvds, and vinyls.
Merchandise that has been worn, used, or altered will not be accepted for return or exchange
Customers may encounter a return fee of 2.9% + $0.30.
Shipping & Handling is non-refundable.
How to request a replacement

If you receive something that is damaged and would like to request a replacement, please submit a replacement request through this form: https://cleopatrarecords.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

Once received, we will review and get back to you with the next steps.

Bauhaus Book returns/exchanges:

Some copies of this book may have small, minor blemishes. There are no exchanges or returns. All sales are final.

Splatter Vinyl Disclaimer:

Some splatter vinyl may experience minor noise issues caused during the manufacturing process. This is due to the splatter color and the melting of PVC to get it to splatter. It must be done at a different temperature than the base. Exchanges can be made with splatter vinyl that has a major defect only.

Customs/VAT:

Cleopatra Records is not responsible for any VAT/Customs fees you may encounter. Any orders/packages returned due to VAT or customs fees not being paid or package unclaimed by the customer will be canceled and partially refunded (Shipping costs will not be refunded).

Cancellations due to order processing difficulties:

Cleopatra Records may be forced to cancel your order due to circumstances that arise during processing.

Your order could be cancelled for the following reasons:

  • The item(s) is no longer available
  • We were unable to process your payment
  • We are not able to ship to the address provided
  • A duplicate order was placed
  • Pricing or promotions errors
  • Product set-up errors

You will receive an email detailing that a cancellation has occurred and credit or authorization holds will be removed from your account based on the tender used.

Tracking your Order

Tracking numbers are sent out to the email used on the order. If a tracking number is not received, you can contact us to request a tracking number. USPS is the primary shipping carrier used but at times your package may be shipped using UPS, FedEx or DHL. Your confirmation email will include the shipping carrier used and how to track your package.

Tracking not updating: Tracking feature allows users to track the status of their packages which are shipped through them. Visit the shipping carrier website (USPS, UPS, FedEx, DHL) to track your package. A unique ID called tracking number is required to track the package. Shipping carriers allot a unique tracking number to each item which is shipped through them. People face many queries related to tracking such as lost tracking number, how to track a package, what is a tracking number, how to or where to find the tracking number, is it possible to track a package without tracking number, tracking not updating, etc. Tracking works absolutely fine most of the time, but there may be few circumstances where the tracking is not updating.

My tracking is not updating, what to do now?
If you’re seeing this message i.e. “Delivery status not updated” then this means your tracking information is not updated. If your tracking information is not updating then you need to first make sure that you’re entering the correct tracking number.

What are the reasons behind tracking not updating?
USPS/UPS/FEDEX/DHL tracking is an end to end mechanism. Every shipment has a barcode which is scanned as a package moves from one place to the other. A barcode is scanned multiple times before reaching the destination. You see tracking updates on your dashboard whenever a barcode is scanned. Here are a few reasons for tracking not updating:

Package Not Scanned: Barcode scanning is the reason why you’re seeing tracking updates. There is a possibility that a barcode is not scanned due to any reason and that’s why your tracking is not updating. Tracking information won’t update until the scanning is done.
Weather Conditions: Weather could be the reason why your tracking is not updating. Sometimes the packages get stuck in the middle due to bad weather conditions.
Packages are not scanned at intermediary stops: As mentioned above that a package is scanned multiple times before reaching the destination. There might be chances that a package is not scanned at intermediary stops due to unavoidable reasons or circumstances.
Broken or Unscannable Barcode: A barcode won’t be scanned properly if it is broken or unscannable.
Delay on the part of the carrier: There might be a delay on the part of the carrier and that’s why your tracking is not updating. As of March, 2020 some shipments may see delays due to COVID-19.
Package being held by shipping carrier: We have seen a small number of instances where a package is being held by a shipping carrier or local post office. We suggest contacting them find the best way to retrieve your package.

Thank you for shopping with us. If you have any questions or concerns about our Limited Time for Order Inquiries Policy, please contact us at store@cleorecs.com.

Vinyl Record Disclaimer

Vinyl records are manually made one at a time in a hydraulic press. They are not mass-produced by machines like CD’s or DVD’s. To make each record, steam from the hydraulic press softens plastic PVC pellets to form a vinyl record as the stampers push an impression of the master recording onto it. Because they are made from a softened plastic, not every copy will be perfectly flat. They will still play without skipping and with no loss to sound quality.

Splatter, Haze, Glitter, and Glow in the Dark Vinyl: Due to the manufacturing process, these vinyl colors can have noisy audio quality.
