# How the Replacement and Reprint Process Works

## Van Gogh reviews the original order and creates a corrected replacement when an item is lost, damaged, missing, or produced incorrectly.

**Quick answer:** Contact Van Gogh with the original order number and evidence of the issue. Do not place another paid order unless Customer Support instructs you to do so.

## Problems that may qualify for replacement

- A lost or missing order
- A missing product or print sheet
- Shipping or handling damage
- The wrong image, background, crop, size, or personalization
- Another student’s photos
- A production or lab-quality issue
- A digital file that is wrong, missing, or technically defective

## What Van Gogh needs

The original order number identifies the student, products, selections, delivery method, and payment. Clear photographs or screenshots help confirm exactly what must be corrected.

## Possible corrections

- Reprint the same item
- Use the correct image or background
- Adjust a crop or personalization
- Update the shipping address before the replacement is released
- Resend a digital-download link or file
- Replace only the affected part of a package

## No second payment

An approved replacement is handled as a correction to the original order. The family should not create a second paid order for the same product unless Van Gogh specifically recommends a new purchase.

> **Important:** Keep the original product, packaging, and files until the case is closed. Van Gogh may request additional information, but do not mail anything without instructions.

## Still need help?

Use the [Van Gogh Help Center](https://support.vangoghphoto.com?hsLang=en) to search for an answer or submit a private support ticket. You can also email [info@vangoghphoto.com](mailto:info@vangoghphoto.com) or call **847-382-2282**.

Please include:

- Original order number
- Student’s full name and school
- Affected product
- Description of the problem
- Photos or screenshots
- Current shipping address
- Preferred correction, when known

For your security, never send a full card number, security code, banking password, or account password.
