# My Prints or Products Arrived Damaged

## Keep the damaged item and packaging, photograph the issue, and request a Van Gogh replacement review.

**Quick answer:** Do not discard or mail the item. Photograph the damage and packaging, then submit the order number and affected product to Van Gogh.

## Document the condition

- Photograph the full product.
- Take a closer photo of the damaged area.
- Photograph the shipping envelope or box, especially visible crushing, bending, moisture, or tears.
- Photograph the shipping label or school-delivery label.
- Keep the packing slip and all package contents.

## Describe the problem clearly

Examples include bent or creased prints, scratches, surface marks, water damage, a broken specialty product, trimming damage, a print defect, or a package damaged in transit.

## What happens next

Van Gogh will review the order and damage. When a replacement is appropriate, Customer Support can arrange a corrected reprint or product without requiring the family to place another paid order.

> **Important:** Do not send the original product to the Barrington facility unless Customer Support specifically requests it. The current support process normally begins with the order number and photographs.
