Shopping with us
How will I know that you've received my order?
I will send you an order confirmation email once we have received your payment. This email contains details of the products you have ordered, the total cost of the order including delivery and your order number.
When will I be charged for my order?
You will be charged at the time you place your order.
What payment methods do you accept?
I accept payments made using VISA, MasterCard and American Express credit cards, as well as payments made via PayPal.
What happens if an item I've ordered is out of stock?
Whilst every effort is made to ensure stock accuracy, mishaps happen. If it does happen, I will contact you to let you know and ask if you would like to order an alternative item or have a refund. If you request a refund, your payment (including any shipping costs for this item) will be refunded using your original payment method.
Can I cancel or make changes to my order?
Sorry, but I don't allow orders to be cancelled or changed once they have been submitted.
What do I do if I forgot to apply a promotional code when I placed my order?
Unfortunately it's not possible to add a promotional code once an order has been placed. However, if you contact me within 1 hour of placing your order, I might be able to cancel it so that you can place a new order using the correct promotional code. Please include your order reference number in your message.
How do I return an item for a refund?
I hope that you are happy with your purchase, but if not, you can return it to me for a refund (excluding shipping costs) within a set number of days of receipt of confirmation that your order has been dispatched. The number of days varies by delivery destination:
Hong Kong: 10 days
Rest of Asia: 22 days
Rest of World: 30 days
For more information and details of exclusions applying, please refer to the Terms and Conditions. Please note, there are no returns on sale items.
What do I do if an item is damaged when I receive it?
Please contact me (making sure you include your order reference number in your message), and I'll be happy to help. Or refer to the Terms and Conditions for more information.
How do I exchange an item?

Not at this time, sorry.
How long will my order take to process?
I endeavour to dispatch all orders within 1 week of the order being received and accepted by Paper-Roses, but I retain the right to extend this time during busy periods and holidays.
Who delivers my order and how long will it take to arrive?
Deliveries within Hong Kong will be made either by hand or using SF Express. Any additional surcharges charged by SF Express will be at your expense.
SF Express states that it takes 1-2 working days for deliveries.
How much does delivery cost?
Delivery charges vary depending on the products ordered and the delivery destination selected and cannot be refunded.
Can I track my order?
Tracking should be possible with SF Express.
Ordering bespoke items
Do you offer bespoke or custom items?
I am not accepting custom orders at this time.
How much will a bespoke order cost?
This will depend on the complexity of the design, paper size and the number of items you want. I will provide a quote once I have all of the details.
Is there a minimum order size for bespoke orders of printed items?
For many paper items, there is no minimum order size, but the price per item will be higher for small orders. Gift wrap, red packets and notebooks all have a minimum order size of 300 items.

Does Paper-Roses offer wholesale opportunities?
I am not accepting wholesale orders at this time.
