Retail Concepts N.V. offers a customer-seller the opportunity to sell their quality second-hand item(s) in exchange for an A.S.Adventure voucher. The client-seller receives the amount of the buy-back in the form of an A.S.Adventure voucher (based on predetermined rates - available at https://www.asadventure.com/en/asa/tweedehands.html )
The voucher's purchase credit is active as soon as it is issued and will be automatically added to the selling customer's Explore More account. The customer will receive an automatic confirmation e-mail of the trade-in.
The voucher is valid for 1 year from the date of issue.
The voucher can be used in all A.S.Adventure shops in Belgium and Luxembourg when purchasing a new item - or a second-hand item in participating stores.
The voucher will automatically appear in your online basket and can be used at:
Under no circumstances can the voucher be refunded, even partially, or exchanged in case of loss or theft or expiry. The voucher is not valid for the purchase of A.S. Adventure gift cards. If a purchase amount is less than the voucher value, the remaining amount will remain in your account (to be used within the original one-year period). The voucher can be used across multiple purchases. The value can be tracked online via your account, under 'my vouchers'.
