The return window
Thirty days to decide.
Sometimes a game is not the right fit, a puzzle is different from what you expected, or a model does not suit the person you had in mind. CurioPlay provides a 30-day return and exchange window so you have time to review your purchase after it arrives.
The return period is measured from delivery. We recommend starting your request as soon as you know an item needs to come back, especially when the order includes multiple pieces, accessories, cards, instructions, hardware, or model components.
30 days from delivery for eligible returns and exchanges
Before sending it back
Keep the item complete.
Toys, games, puzzles, STEM kits, and models often include many individual components. Returning everything together helps us review the item correctly.
Ready for review.
For the smoothest return experience, keep the product in its original condition and include the materials that arrived with it.
- All game pieces, cards, tokens, or accessories included
- Puzzle pieces and inserts kept together
- Model components, hardware, and instructions included
- Product packaging retained whenever reasonably possible
- Item protected appropriately for return transit
Opened or incomplete.
If an item has been opened, assembled, partially used, or is missing a component, contact our team before returning it. We can review the situation and explain the most appropriate next step.
- Partially assembled mechanical or building models
- Opened craft or experiment materials
- Missing cards, pieces, tools, or accessories
- Products showing substantial use or wear
- Any order with condition questions
Different situations
We handle the details.
Not every return begins for the same reason. These are the most common situations and the information that helps us support you.
Not the right fit
If an eligible toy, puzzle, game, kit, or model simply is not the right choice, request a return within the 30-day window and keep the item as complete as possible.
Prefer something else
If you would rather exchange an eligible purchase, tell our team what you would like to change so we can provide the correct next-step instructions.
Arrived damaged
Keep the packaging and take clear photographs of the product and shipping condition. This gives our team useful context when reviewing the issue.
Something is incorrect
If the item received does not match your order, keep the product and packaging together and contact us with your order details before sending anything back.
A component is missing
For puzzles, games, STEM sets, and models, tell us which component appears to be missing and include a photo of the contents when possible.
A gift needs changing
If a gift is not quite right, contact our team with the available order information so we can review the return or exchange options for that purchase.
After the return
Refunds, clearly handled.
Once an eligible return is received and reviewed, approved refunds are issued back through the original payment method. Processing time after approval can vary depending on the payment provider or financial institution.

A small reminder
Do not return first.
Please request return instructions before shipping an item back. Sending a package without the correct return guidance can make it harder to identify, review, and process your order.
Our team can confirm what information to include and where an approved return should be sent. This is especially important for multi-piece games, construction sets, DIY kits, and mechanical models.
