Policies

We believe in the durability and longevity of our products and craftsmanship so strongly that we warranty every one of them against defects in materials and workmanship for 100 years. If you should have a problem, send it back and we’ll repair or replace it for free. This guarantee applies to the original buyer purchased through Anthology.

Anthology products are made to last, but they're not bullet proof. The warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship and does not cover misuse or abuse or normal wear and tear. Because of the nature of full grain leather and how difficult it is to work with, all of our instrument straps, bags and accessories are uniquely different and are made to have markings, with some uneven stitching, tones and shades that vary up to 20% with the colors, and areas not perfectly symmetrical. They're not mass produced by an army of slave children working for a dollar a day running computer operated machines. They're created by a few folks who have worked leather for the majority of their lives. As the bags are used, broken in and conditioned properly, the leather will soften and have a worn and used look to them which does include wrinkling.

Return/Exchange Policy

All leather pieces sold by Anthology come from the finest materials and are handcrafted by the best generational leatherworkers. They're guaranteed to be full grain leather, in new condition, and inspected by the highest quality control.

All leather pieces offered by Anthology are protected by a 30 Day Full Satisfaction Promise from date of delivery, which guarantees a full refund or product credit exchange as long as the product is returned in new and unused condition, in the original box (if there is extensive damage to the box, contact our Customer Service for instructions), including all parts and accessories. "New and unused" means that there are no signs of wear on the product and the product must not have been altered in any way. For obvious reasons, we cannot accept a return of any item with any indication that it has been used. All returned products in used condition will be returned to the buyer at their expense.

If you are not satisfied with an item that you've purchased, you may return the item within 30 days of delivery for a full Refund of the amount paid. This will be refunded through the original payment method.

Or a product Credit Exchange.

If you desire to return your product within the 30 day Full Satisfaction Promise period, your returned product must be:

packaged carefully to avoid damage.
shipped fully insured.
have a Return Authorization Number obtained from Anthology. Any package without an Anthology Authorization Number will be refused upon delivery.
return documented by Anthology within 30 days after purchase. All products received outside of the 30 day guarantee will be refused and returned to the original buyer unless return is international shipping with prior authorization.

Damaged or Defective Items: If you receive a damaged or defective item, please contact our Customer Service immediately (within 48 hours of delivery or after opening your gift). Please supply us your order number from your original confirmation e-mail, your e-mail address and phone number. Upon receipt, your product will be inspected by our leather expert to evaluate the defect you identified.

If the defect does not pertain to the leather, it will either be repaired and returned to you at no cost or replaced with a comparable product.

If the identified defect pertains to the leather, please be aware that because of the nature of our bags what might be considered a defect is sometimes the nature of the leather itself. If our specialist determines the leather is defective, we will gladly replace your product and return it to you at no cost. If our specialist determines the "defect" is naturally recurring in the leather, then you may elect:

A money refund, less return shipping costs.
An exchange for a comparable product.
A store credit.

If there is extensive damage to the box, refuse the order and contact our Customer Service immediately. If the package was left at your shipping address please return the product in the original damaged box. Please have your order number available when you contact Customer Service.
