Whether you\u2019re investing in a designer bag or picking up a timeless pair of shoes, it\u2019s nice to know that you have options if something doesn\u2019t work out. Here\u2019s the latest on how Neiman Marcus handles returns, based on the official policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How long you have to make a return<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Neiman Marcus accepts returns for most items within 30 days from the date you receive your purchase. To be eligible, your return must arrive within that window and meet the condition requirements listed below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s one exception. Chanel items, including handbags, apparel, accessories, and shoes, must be returned within 14 days of receipt. The 30-day window does not apply to those products, so it\u2019s best to decide quickly if you plan to keep them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Holiday returns <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Purchases made between Nov. 15, 2025 and Dec. 15, 2025 are eligible for refunds until Jan. 15, 2026. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chanel handbags, accessories, apparel and shoes have a separate holiday return window. Chanel items purchased between Nov. 23, 2025 and Dec. 25, 2025 can be returned until January 8, 2026. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-dominant-color=\"979597\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #979597;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/neiman-marcus-returns-1000.jpg\" alt=\"Clothing store with folded jeans and tops on tables with text overlay\" class=\"wp-image-1657710 not-transparent\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/neiman-marcus-returns-1000.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/neiman-marcus-returns-1000-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/neiman-marcus-returns-1000-300x450.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/neiman-marcus-returns-1000-768x1152.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: Canva.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Neiman Marcus will accept<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To receive a refund, your item must be in saleable condition. That means it should be unworn, undamaged, and in the same condition you received it. Items also need to include their original packaging, tags, and accessories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Certain purchases are not returnable. Neiman Marcus does not accept returns of personalized or altered merchandise, special orders, or anything marked final sale. It\u2019s always a good idea to review the product description before you buy to see if it falls under one of these categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to make a return<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you purchased an item in store, you can return it to any Neiman Marcus location within the 30-day window. Bring your receipt or proof of purchase to make the process go smoothly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you placed your order online, you can start a return through the Neiman Marcus website. Once you begin the process, you\u2019ll receive the appropriate instructions for shipping your item back. Be sure to use the return label provided and package your item securely. Neiman Marcus will inspect the item once it arrives to confirm that it meets the return criteria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How refunds work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Approved, mailed returns are refunded to the original form of payment, less a <strong>$9.95 return shipping fee<\/strong>. The timing can vary depending on your bank or credit card company, so allow a few days after Neiman Marcus receives and processes your return for the refund to show up. Shipping and handling charges are generally not refundable unless the item was defective or sent in error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Approved, in-store returns are refunded as store credit.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tips for a smooth return<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A few quick tips can help make sure your return goes off without a hitch:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Start your return as soon as you decide not to keep an item.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keep all original packaging and tags until you\u2019re sure you love your purchase.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pay special attention to the 14-day window for Chanel items.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Personalized, altered, or final sale items cannot be returned.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Neiman Marcus does not accept returns for items purchased at Bergdorf Goodman, Last Call and Horchow stores.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The takeaway<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Neiman Marcus offers a straightforward return policy that balances flexibility with the standards expected for luxury merchandise. Most purchases can be returned within 30 days, and the process is simple whether you shop online or in store. As long as your item is in new condition and you act within the deadline, you can shop confidently knowing you have options if something doesn\u2019t work out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What about Last Call?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Last Call was Neiman&#8217;s outlet store. The store itself and lastcall.com were very popular among budget fashionistas &#8212; but apparently that wasn&#8217;t enough. This brand is now, sadly, dead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last Call stopped accepting returns in 2020. Today, the stores and closed and the website now forwards to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neimanmarcus.com\/c\/nm-offers--sales-cat66120739\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.neimanmarcus.com\/c\/nm-offers--sales-cat66120739\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Neiman&#8217;s clearance page<span class=\"wpil-link-icon\" title=\"Link goes to external site.\" style=\"margin: 0 0 0 5px;\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"height:16px; width:16px; fill:#000000; stroke:#000000; display:inline-block;\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:svg=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><use href=\"#wpil-svg-outbound-7-icon-path\"><\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does Neiman Marcus have a good return policy?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Budget Fashionista rates the Neiman Marcus return policy as average, with a score of 3.3 points out of 5. The chain charges $9.95 to ship in mailed returns and the shortened return window for Chanel products is not ideal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our Return Policy Score\u2122 score evaluates the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/shopping-guide\/return-policy\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"1658851\">key return policy factors<\/a> shoppers care about most: return window length, condition requirements, refund method, shipping costs, in-store return flexibility, marketplace transparency, processing speed, and overall policy clarity. Each category is rated on a 1 to 5 scale based on how generous, convenient, and easy to understand the policy is. The final score is an average of all categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find the <a href=\"https:\/\/assistance.neimanmarcus.com\/returns\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/assistance.neimanmarcus.com\/returns\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">official Neiman Marcus return policy here<span class=\"wpil-link-icon\" title=\"Link goes to external site.\" style=\"margin: 0 0 0 5px;\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"height:16px; width:16px; fill:#000000; stroke:#000000; display:inline-block;\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:svg=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><use href=\"#wpil-svg-outbound-7-icon-path\"><\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shopping at Neiman Marcus is always a treat.
