Refund processing times can vary depending on:
- Payment provider
- Bank
- Credit or debit card issuer

We may review:

Customers are responsible for providing accurate shipping information at checkout.
If an order cannot be delivered because the customer provided an incorrect, incomplete, or outdated address, we may not be able to provide a refund or replacement until the circumstances have been reviewed.
If the package is returned to the sender or fulfillment facility, additional shipping costs may apply if you request that the order be shipped again.
If you notice an address error, contact us immediately through the Chat button.
15. Refused or Unclaimed Packages
If a package is refused, abandoned, or remains unclaimed and is subsequently returned to the sender or fulfillment facility, any refund or reshipment will be reviewed based on the circumstances.
Additional shipping or handling costs may apply to a replacement shipment.
Where permitted by applicable law, original shipping charges may not be refundable in these circumstances.
16. Order Cancellation
If you want to cancel your order, contact us through the Chat button as soon as possible.
We will make reasonable efforts to cancel an order before it enters fulfillment or shipping.
However, once an order has been processed, fulfilled, or shipped, cancellation may no longer be possible.
If the order has already shipped, the request may need to be handled through the applicable return process.
17. Exchanges & Replacements
Where appropriate, we may offer a replacement instead of a refund.
A replacement may be offered when:
- The wrong item was received
- The product arrived damaged
- The product is defective
- An item is missing from the shipment
- Another fulfillment issue has occurred
Replacement availability depends on product availability and fulfillment circumstances.
If the original product is unavailable, we may offer a refund or another appropriate resolution.
18. Return Inspection
If a return is required, the returned product may be inspected after it is received.
The inspection may determine:
- Whether the returned item matches the order
- Whether the reported issue is present
- Whether the item meets the applicable return requirements
- Whether all components are included
- Whether the item has been used or damaged
Refunds or replacements may be processed after the necessary review has been completed.
19. Processing Time for Returns & Refunds
We aim to review return and refund requests as efficiently as reasonably possible.
Processing times can vary depending on:
- The reason for the request
- Whether photographs or other information are required
- Return shipping time
- Fulfillment-partner review
- Product inspection
- Payment-provider processing
We will communicate with you through Chat if additional information is required to process your request.
20. Promotions, Discounts & Free Gifts
If a product was purchased using a promotion, discount, bundle offer, or free-gift promotion, the refund amount may be adjusted according to the terms of the applicable promotion.
If a refund causes an order to no longer qualify for a promotion, the value of the promotion may be taken into account when calculating the refund, where permitted by applicable law.
21. Shipping Charges
Original shipping charges are generally non-refundable unless:
- The order was incorrectly fulfilled by us
- The product arrived damaged or defective
- We shipped the wrong product
- Another circumstance makes reimbursement appropriate
- A refund of shipping charges is required by applicable law
The treatment of shipping charges may depend on the circumstances of the order.

This may include situations involving:
- Repeated false damage claims
- False delivery claims
- Product substitution
- Intentional product damage
- Repeated abuse of refund policies
We may request additional information or evidence when reasonably necessary to investigate a claim.

We will make reasonable efforts to resolve legitimate order issues directly with you.
This section does not limit any rights you may have under applicable law or the rules of your payment provider.
24. Consumer Rights
This policy is intended to operate alongside applicable consumer protection laws.
