The Neiman Marcus Return Policy generally allows eligible returns within 30 days of receipt. CHANEL handbags, accessories, apparel, and shoes have a shorter deadline: 14 days from purchase. This guide covers U.S. purchases. Before starting, check your item’s eligibility and condition; meeting the deadline alone does not guarantee acceptance.

Exceptions and Non-Returnable Items

Excluded merchandise includes altered apparel, special orders, cloth face coverings, perishables, personalized or monogrammed products, and items marked final sale. Precious jewelry requires special assistance: call 1-800-908-1185 before returning it.
Check the product description and order confirmation before removing tags or arranging shipment. A discount alone should not be treated as proof that something is final sale; look for the actual designation.
How to Return an Item to Neiman Marcus
For online purchases, start through the return portal using your order number. For an in-store return, print the return slip. Store purchases require the receipt and may also be mailed to the original purchasing store. Mailed returns use authorized FedEx locations, rather than USPS.
Before handing over your package:
- Check the deadline and item-specific restrictions.
- Follow the instructions generated for your return.
- Package the merchandise securely.
- Save the handoff receipt and tracking information.
For oversized merchandise, ask about collection arrangements and the total deduction before booking anything.
Can You Return an Item Without a Receipt?
Without an order number, contact customer service at 1-888-888-4757 for assistance. This is not a guarantee of receiptless acceptance or store credit.
Search your confirmation emails and account order history first. Having the purchase date, item description, and available payment information ready can help you explain the transaction.
Shipping Charges and Refund Timing
Original shipping charges are generally nonrefundable unless the merchandise is damaged or defective. That is separate from the charge for shipping a return back.
Do not treat the processing estimate in the table as a guaranteed bank posting date. Keep the carrier’s delivery confirmation so you can distinguish transit time from return handling and payment posting.
Gift Returns and Gift Card Purchases
Gift returns generally produce a merchandise credit gift card for the recipient. Gifts valued above $2,000 receive a check instead.
For eligible merchandise purchased with a Neiman Marcus gift card, the published shopping terms describe a mailed Merchandise Credit Gift Card after a return. Virtual gift cards themselves cannot be returned for a cash refund.
Damaged Items, Exchanges, and Return Problems
For damage, defects, incorrect merchandise, or missing components, contact customer service before arranging an ordinary return. Photograph the issue and retain the packaging while requesting instructions.
If you need another size or color, confirm whether an exchange is available before placing a replacement order. Likewise, confirm any holiday extension or membership benefit for your specific purchase rather than assuming it applies.
If a return is refused, ask which condition caused the decision. Provide your purchase evidence and relevant photographs, then request clarification through customer service. For problems arising after the return deadline, check the product’s actual warranty documentation; coverage depends on its terms.
