Avidlove tip
Returns are handled by email request to [email protected] rather than a self-service portal, and only one exchange per item is allowed (same item, different size/color), so a second exchange attempt will likely be refused.
Cosabella tip
Miss the 30-day window and you're not completely out of luck — items returned after that point can still get exchange or store credit, just not a cash refund.
