  • Use more than one word
  • Using more than one word helps narrow down the search criteria.

The tracking number for my order shows that my package was returned to the supplier. What happens next? (Back)

If you are returning a product listed below, please check to make sure your return meets the conditions described.
  • Logo/Branded Merchandise - Must be in their original condition
  • Apparel - Must not have been worn, washed, damaged, or altered. All labels, tags, packaging, or shrink-wrap must be included. Returned merchandise is subject to inspection before issuing a refund. Once product condition is determined to fall within policy guidelines, a credit will be issued.

If the item is incorrect or damaged refuse the delivery and you will receive a full refund. Once the item has been accepted it will be assumed to be correct and in good working condition. Any issues that arise after the item is signed for must be resolved through the manufacturers' warranty.
How do I return my product? (Back)
Before you send us back any merchandise, check out our Return Policy to make sure that your purchase is eligible for return. In order for your return process to be completed without delay, you must ensure to hold on to your packing slip and to include it with your returned item. SHOP.MTV.COM highly suggests that you carefully review the return instructions featured on your packing slip. Kindly note that some suppliers do not need you to obtain a Return Authorization number. However, other suppliers will not be able to process your credit if you fail to obtain a Return Authorization number.

To Return an Item(s) to suppliers which require a Return Authorization Number; kindly follow the steps below:
  1. Request a Return Authorization Number (RA #) for an item by logging into your account on the MTV Shop.
  2. Under Your Account, click Return Items. Select the appropriate order number you wish to return.
    Note: Returns will not be accepted without a RA number. RA numbers will expire after 10 days, and the item will not be accepted if it is returned after that timeframe.
  3. Click on Return this item for the item you wish to return.
  4. Enter a Reason for the return and the Condition of the item. Enter a Comment (if necessary).
  5. Click the Continue button to receive your Return Authorization Number (RA #).
  6. An email will be sent to you with your Return Authorization Number (RA #) and additional instructions on returning the item(s).
  7. Place the item(s) you wish to return in the original box that your item(s) was shipped in, ALONG WITH A COPY OF YOUR ORIGINAL PACKING SLIP. FAILURE TO PROVIDE A COPY OF YOUR PACKING SLIP WILL RESULT IN A MAJOR DELAY IN ISSUING CREDIT. Note: If you are returning multiple items, be sure to place the items with the same return address in the same box. If you are returning two items with two different return addresses, you must return each item in separate boxes to the correct address.
  8. Affix the mailing label(s) from your ORIGINAL PACKING SLIP with the RA number(s) over the original label on the box. Please do not write directly on the manufacturer's box
    Note: If you are returning multiple items, you may be issued a RA # for each item. Each RA # must be clearly written on the outside of the return package.
  9. For your protection, send your return prepaid via a shipping service that can be tracked, such as UPS. Please be sure to keep your receipt. We cannot guarantee refunds for returns on defective, damaged, or incorrectly shipped merchandise if it is not sent via a non-traceable method.
  10. Suppliers will begin your return process no later than 14 days from the day your return parcel is received by our warehouse. Credits take 4-6 weeks to apply. Depending on your banks policies and procedures, it may take up to 1 -2 billing cycles for the credit to reflect on your account. If credit cannot be issued to your credit card, a store credit will be issued. Note: Returning an item(s) may change or void coupon discounts or refunds currently appearing on an order.
