For our returns guidelines please refer to our General Terms and Conditions page.
If you are a retailer based in Germany and subject to legal and contractual fixed book price regulations, you are entitled to return goods in accordance with the following provisions:
In order to make a return (Remission), the retailer must first obtain the agreement of De Gruyter.
The details of the purchase must be provided along with the return.
De Gruyter reserves the right to refuse unauthorized returns.
Returns must be delivered to De Gruyter carriage paid.
Excluded from returns are:
volumes whose fixed price was rescinded more than six weeks ago by way of notification in the Börsenblatt,
volumes six weeks after the publication of a new edition,
goods that were invoiced more than eighteen months before the return.
Authorized and undamaged returns will be credited to the customer in full based on the original retail price. Twenty-five percent of the fixed retail price of damaged but resalable returns will be credited to the customer provided no other specific agreement is reached. De Gruyter reserves the right to refuse to issue credit for damaged copies that De Gruyter does not reasonably consider to be resalable.
Each calendar year, De Gruyter accepts returns up to a value of five percent of the annual revenue of the respective retailer. Electronic products can only be returned in their original packaging (sealed).
Once agreement has been reached, and unless otherwise expressly agreed, returns should be sent to:
