Return window
You have 30 days from the date your order is delivered to start a return. We use the delivery date shown in USPS tracking. To start a return, contact us within that 30-day period. Returns requested after 30 days are not accepted unless we have agreed to them in advance.
Which items can be returned
Change-of-mind returns
If you change your mind, you can return an item that is new and unused, in its original condition. Unused means a bird has not chewed it or played with it. Original packaging is helpful but not required.
Why used toys can’t be returned for change of mind
For hygiene and bird-health reasons, we cannot resell a toy that a bird has used. A used toy can only be returned if it is defective, arrived damaged or is not the item you ordered.
Defective, damaged or wrong items
If an item is defective, was damaged on arrival or is not what you ordered, we accept it within 30 days of delivery in any condition, even if your bird has already used it. We will send a replacement or a refund, whichever you prefer, and we refund your original shipping charge too. For an item damaged in transit, a photo of the damage is usually all we need, and you do not need to send the item back unless we ask.
Items that can’t be returned
- Items a bird has used, unless the item is defective, damaged or not what you ordered
- Items that were not bought from our website
- Items returned after the 30-day window without our prior agreement
We do not currently sell gift cards, digital products or custom or personalized items.
Return shipping
We cover the return shipping cost for every return, including change-of-mind returns. We email you a prepaid USPS return label, so returning an item is at no cost to you. There are no restocking fees and no other deductions.
How to start a return
- Contact us within 30 days of delivery. Email support@elnuevoneighborhood.com or use our contact form. Include your order number, the item or items you want to return and the reason for the return.
- Get your return authorization. We reply within 1 business day with a return authorization (RA) number and a prepaid USPS return label.
- Pack the item securely. Write the RA number on the outside of the package or on a note inside, and attach the prepaid label.
- Send it with USPS. Drop the package at any USPS location or schedule a USPS pickup.
- Keep your proof of shipping. Keep the USPS receipt or tracking number until your refund is issued.
Please ship your return within 14 days of receiving the return label.

What we refund
| Reason for return | Item price | Original shipping charge | Return shipping |
|---|---|---|---|
| Change of mind (new, unused item) | Refunded in full, with the sales tax charged on it | Not refunded | Paid by us |
| Defective, damaged or wrong item | Refunded in full, with the sales tax charged on it | Refunded, with any sales tax charged on it | Paid by us |
If a change-of-mind return arrives used and it is not defective, we cannot refund it. We will contact you and send the item back to you at our cost.
You may return part of an order. We refund the items you send back under the same rules.
Exchanges and replacements
We do not offer direct exchanges for change-of-mind returns. Please return the item for a refund and place a new order for the item you want. If an item is defective, damaged or not what you ordered, we can replace it with the same item.
Cancelling an order
If your order has not shipped yet, contact us and we will cancel it and refund the full amount, including shipping, to your original payment method. Once an order has shipped, it can no longer be cancelled, but you can return it under this policy.
Late or missing refunds
If we have emailed you that your refund was issued and you do not see it after 10 business days, please check with your bank or card issuer first, since posting times vary. If you still do not see it, contact us and we will help.
Lost or late deliveries
Problems with parcels that are late, lost or marked delivered but not received are covered in our Shipping Policy. If a parcel is lost and not found by USPS, we send a replacement or a full refund, including shipping, at no cost to you.
Your rights
This policy does not limit any rights you have under US federal law or the laws of the State of Florida.
