Shipping policy

SHIPPING AT A GLANCE

WHERE WE SHIP: Internationally, to a growing list of markets. Available destinations are shown at checkout.

TWO DELIVERY OPTIONS:

Priority All-Inclusive (DDP) - Import duties, taxes and carrier fees are calculated at checkout and prepaid, so there is nothing more to pay on delivery. Offered for the United States and other selected countries, as shown at checkout.

Standard Shipping (DDU) - A lower shipping cost at checkout. Any import duties, taxes or carrier fees are paid by you directly on delivery.

FREE SHIPPING: Available on qualifying orders, where it applies at checkout. Free shipping means the transport cost is zero - it does not remove any import duties, taxes or carrier fees, which still apply based on your destination and chosen option.

DELIVERY TIMES: Typically 1-6 business days within the EU/UK, and 3-12 business days for other destinations, depending on the option chosen. Exact times are shown at checkout.

MULTIPLE SHIPMENTS: Items may ship from different warehouse locations and arrive separately, each with its own tracking.

INSURANCE: All shipments are covered against loss or damage in transit. In the event of an issue, we investigate and file a claim with the carrier, and approved claims are refunded in full.

CUSTOMS DOCUMENTATION: International parcels carry external customs paperwork by law, which may show the declared value.

INTRODUCTION

This Shipping Policy is part of and incorporated into the Terms and Conditions of Allure Collective Store (Ultima NZ Limited, Company Number 430267, NZBN 9429030340824), trading as ALLURE COLLECTIVE STORE and AllureMen.

This policy governs all shipping and delivery for products purchased from www.allurecollectivestore.com.

Registered Business Address: 12 Beresford Square, Newton, Auckland 1010, New Zealand Email: support@allurecollectivestore.com

1. SHIPPING DESTINATIONS

1.1 Markets and Availability: We ship internationally and are gradually expanding to additional markets over time. Products show as "not available" for markets we do not currently serve. If you wish to purchase from a country not currently supported, email support@allurecollectivestore.com and we will make reasonable efforts to assist where possible.

1.2 Restrictions: PO boxes and military addresses are not supported.

1.3 Freight Forwarders and Package Forwarding Services:

(a) Use at Your Own Risk: You may ship to freight forwarding services, package consolidation services, or mail forwarding addresses at your own risk.

(b) No Responsibility: We are not responsible for packages lost, stolen, or damaged after delivery to a freight forwarder; additional fees charged by freight forwarding services; customs issues arising from re-shipment by freight forwarders; delays caused by freight forwarding services; or incorrect forwarding addresses provided by such services.

(c) Delivery Confirmation: Once a package is delivered to a freight forwarding address and signed for, our shipping obligation is complete. Any subsequent shipping, customs clearance, or delivery issues are between you and the freight forwarding service.

(d) Returns: Returns from freight forwarding addresses may be subject to additional verification and may take longer to process.

(e) Fraud Prevention: Orders shipped to freight forwarding addresses may be subject to additional security validation and verification.

1.4 Product Shipping Restrictions:

(a) Restricted Items: Some products may have shipping restrictions based on destination country regulations, carrier policies, or product characteristics (e.g., lithium batteries, liquids, aerosols, perfumes, cosmetics).

(b) Availability at Checkout: If a product cannot be shipped to your location due to restrictions, it will show as "not available" at checkout or you will be notified before shipment.

(c) Carrier Refusal: If a carrier refuses to ship a product after your Order is placed due to restrictions we were not aware of, we will notify you immediately and offer a full refund.

(d) No Liability: We are not responsible for shipping delays, returns, or cancellations caused by carrier or customs restrictions on certain product types.

2. SHIPPING FROM MULTIPLE LOCATIONS

2.1 Multiple Warehouse Locations: When you order multiple products, they may ship from different warehouse locations depending on where each item is stocked (Italy, Northern Ireland, Spain, Macedonia, Austria, Sweden, the USA, or other locations).

2.2 Multiple Shipments - this means:

(a) Your Order may arrive in multiple separate shipments on different days.

(b) Each shipment will have its own unique tracking number.

(d) You will receive separate tracking notifications for each shipment.

(e) Delivery times may vary between shipments based on origin location and destination.

2.3 Shipping Costs: When products ship from multiple locations, each shipment incurs separate carrier costs. This may result in higher overall shipping costs compared to a single shipment. The total shipping cost will be calculated and displayed at checkout based on the origin locations of your selected products.

2.4 Returns from Multiple Shipments: If you need to return products from a multiple-product Order, our standard return policy applies to each individual product. You can return some products while keeping others.

2.5 Out of Stock Items in Multi-Product Orders:

(a) Stock Verification: While we verify stock availability before accepting your Order, occasionally items may become unavailable after your Order is placed due to inventory updates across multiple warehouse locations. We do not offer backorders or pre-orders; all products listed are intended for immediate shipment.

(b) Refund for Unavailable Items: If one or more items in your multi-product Order become unavailable, we will ship the available items and refund the unavailable items in full. Where the unavailable items were to ship from a separate warehouse and you were charged separate shipping for them, that portion of the shipping cost is also refunded.

(c) Shipping Cost Adjustment: If unavailable items significantly affect your Order value and you no longer qualify for free shipping, we will not charge additional shipping fees for items already shipped.

3. SHIPPING METHODS AND OPTIONS

3.1 Available Options: At checkout, you can choose from various shipping options depending on your location, including standard/economy shipping, express shipping, and carrier-specific options where available.

3.2 Carrier Selection: We reserve the right to change our logistics providers, shipping carriers, fulfillment partners, and delivery services at any time as needed to best fulfill customer Orders, optimize delivery times, reduce costs, or improve service quality.

3.3 No Carrier Guarantee: We will select carriers that meet our quality and service standards, but we cannot guarantee the use of any specific carrier for your Order. Carrier selection may vary based on destination, product type, shipping speed selected, and other factors.

4. DELIVERY ADDRESS REQUIREMENTS

4.1 Accurate Information Required: You must ensure your physical delivery address, email address, and phone number are absolutely correct, complete, and up-to-date to avoid shipping delays, failed deliveries, or returns.

4.2 Address Verification: We use a dedicated physical address verification application to ensure correct delivery address data, which provides further protection against shipping errors and delays.

4.3 Our Responsibility: We cannot accept responsibility for incorrect, incomplete, or outdated delivery details provided by the customer, or for any shipment lost, delayed, or returned due to incorrect information.

4.4 Customer Responsibility: It is your responsibility to provide accurate delivery information. We recommend double-checking all details before completing your Order.

4.5 Temporary Addresses and Travel Destinations:

(a) Hotels and Vacation Rentals: If you're shipping to a hotel, vacation rental, or temporary address, please notify the property in advance of your expected delivery, provide your full name and contact information, include the property name and your reservation/room number in the address, and confirm the property accepts packages for guests.

(b) Our Responsibility: We are not responsible for packages refused, lost, or not accepted by hotels, vacation rentals, or temporary addresses.

(d) Recommendation: We recommend shipping to your permanent address or a trusted friend/family member's address to avoid delivery issues at temporary locations.

4.6 Address Changes After Order Placement:

(a) Before Shipment: If you need to change your shipping address after placing your Order but before it ships, contact us immediately at support@allurecollectivestore.com. We will attempt to update the address if the Order has not yet been dispatched from the warehouse.

(b) After Shipment: Once your Order has shipped, we cannot change the delivery address. You will need to contact the carrier directly using your tracking number to request address changes (subject to carrier policies and fees), or arrange package interception or redirection with the carrier (fees may apply).

(c) No Guarantee: We cannot guarantee address changes will be successful, even if requested before shipment, as Orders may be processed and shipped quickly.

(d) Incorrect Address: If a package is returned to sender due to an address change request or incorrect address, standard return-to-sender fees apply as outlined in Section 13.5.

5. DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS AND SIGNATURE

5.1 Signature on Delivery: A signature on delivery may be required or available depending on the carrier and the delivery option selected. For some shipments, the carrier may notify you so you can choose a "signature required" option; for others, a signature on delivery may involve an additional cost or the parcel may be delivered without a signature. At the point of delivery, responsibility for and title to your purchased goods passes to you. Risk of loss and damage transfers to you upon delivery.

5.2 Optional Delivery Instructions: In certain circumstances, our delivery partner may provide you with the following optional delivery instructions:

(a) Signature Release: Opting out of the requirement to provide a signature on delivery, allowing the carrier to leave the package without obtaining a signature.

(b) Leave with Neighbor: Authorizing re-direction of the delivery to a neighbor's address if you are not available.

5.3 Risk Acceptance: You acknowledge and expressly agree that if you choose to use these optional delivery instructions, we shall bear no responsibility or liability whatsoever for any loss, theft, damage, or any other issue that may result from delivering your Order in accordance with your request and instructions. Use of these options is entirely at your own risk.

5.4 Recommendation: Wherever possible, we recommend signing for your shipment at delivery to ensure secure receipt.

6. INSURANCE AND TITLE TRANSFER

6.1 Insurance During Transit: Your purchase is covered against loss or damage while it is in transit until it is delivered to your specified delivery address.

6.2 Title and Ownership: We will hold title to and ownership of the goods until they are delivered to and accepted by you in accordance with these Terms and Conditions.

6.3 Transfer of Responsibility: At the point of delivery (or alternative delivery method you authorize), responsibility for and title to your purchased goods passes to you. Risk of loss and damage transfers to you upon delivery.

6.4 Coverage: All shipments are covered against loss or damage occurring while the shipment is in the carrier's possession during transit. This coverage does NOT extend to:

(a) Damage or loss after delivery has been confirmed.

(b) Packages stolen from your property after delivery.

(d) Loss or damage where you have authorized delivery without a signature or to an alternative location (see Section 5.3).

6.5 Loss or Damage Claims Process:

(a) Report Promptly: If your package arrives damaged, or does not arrive, contact us at support@allurecollectivestore.com as soon as possible — within 48 hours of delivery for damage claims, and within the timeframes set out in Section 13 for missing shipments.

(b) Preserve Evidence: For damage claims, do not discard the packaging. Take clear photos of the damage, the packaging, the shipping label, and the product from multiple angles.

(d) Outcome: Where a claim is approved, you receive a full refund or replacement. We process this once the carrier confirms the claim outcome.

(e) Cooperation: Claims require your cooperation in providing photos, original packaging (for damage), a description of the issue, and timely responses to any requests for information.

(f) Claim Timeline: Carrier investigations typically take 14-30 business days, depending on the carrier and the nature of the claim.

(g) High-Value Items: For high-value items (over $500 USD), we may need to await the carrier's claim outcome before processing a refund or replacement.

7. GIFT DELIVERIES AND THIRD-PARTY RECIPIENTS

7.1 Delivery to Others: If you have specified a recipient who is not you for delivery purposes (for example as a gift to another person), then you accept and agree that evidence of a signature by them (or at that delivery address) is conclusive evidence of delivery and fulfillment by us.

7.2 Transfer of Responsibility: This constitutes transfer of responsibility and title in the same way as if you had received the delivery yourself. The goods become the recipient's responsibility from the time we deliver them to the address you provided.

7.3 Your Responsibility: You remain responsible for payment and compliance with these Terms, even when products are delivered to a third party.

7.4 Invoices and Receipts:

(a) Email Confirmation: You will receive an invoice/receipt via email immediately after purchase showing your order details and payment confirmation.

(b) Physical Invoices in Parcels: Generally, our warehouses do not include physical invoices or receipts inside packages. This is standard shipping practice to maintain your privacy and our business operations.

(c) Pricing Information: While we request that our warehouses not include any pricing information in packages, we cannot guarantee this in all cases as we do not control the packaging process at all fulfilment locations.

(d) Gift Purchases: If you're purchasing a product as a gift, we unfortunately cannot guarantee that pricing information will not be included in the package. We recommend having the product shipped to yourself first if you want to ensure no pricing information is visible before gifting.

(e) Customs Documentation: All packages include external customs documentation (commercial invoice on the outside of the package) as required by international shipping regulations. This documentation is separate from any internal packing materials.

8. PROCESSING AND DELIVERY TIMES

8.1 Order Processing: Generally, Orders are processed within 24-48 hours of Order confirmation. However, processing times may be extended during peak periods, holidays, sales events, or due to stock availability. If your Order requires additional processing time, we will notify you via email where possible.

8.2 Estimated Delivery Times: The following indicative delivery times apply for most products:

(a) Orders within the EU/UK: Express 1-3 business days; Economy 4-6 business days.

(b) Orders outside the EU: Express 3-6 business days; Economy 7-12 business days

8.3 Exact Delivery Times: Exact delivery times are provided by the carrier you choose at checkout and are displayed before you complete your purchase.

8.4 Estimates Only: These are estimates only and not guarantees. We cannot be held liable for any losses, damages, inconvenience, or consequences as a result of delivery occurring outside of our expected time frame.

8.5 Delays Beyond Our Control: Delivery times may be affected by factors beyond our control, including customs inspections and clearance, weather conditions, carrier backlogs or delays, public holidays, natural disasters or emergencies, pandemics or health emergencies, government restrictions or regulations, and carrier strikes or service disruptions.

8.6 Holiday and Peak Season Delays:

(a) Extended Times: During peak shopping periods and around public holidays, order processing and delivery times may be longer than usual. We are unable to monitor or track warehouse closures or public holidays across the many regions we ship from and to, and we will not notify you individually of such periods.

(b) Plan for Longer Delivery: Please factor in additional delivery time when ordering during or near holiday periods. We cannot be held responsible for delays caused by warehouse closures, public holidays, or peak-season carrier volumes.

(c) Tracking: Where your Order is already in transit, your tracking will show an approximate delivery time. Where a fulfilment location is temporarily closed, your Order will be dispatched on the next available working day once it reopens.

9. ORDER TRACKING

9.1 Tracking Provided: Once the nominated carrier collects your shipment from the warehouse, a tracking number will be issued.

9.2 Tracking Notifications: You will receive the tracking information via email or SMS, either directly from the carrier or from us.

9.3 Account Tracking: If you have a personal Account with us, you can also check your shipping status under "Order History."

9.4 Carrier Updates: Carriers generally send email updates on the transit location and delivery status of your shipment, even if you don't have an Account.

9.5 Delivery Attempts: Generally, a carrier will attempt delivery 1-3 times at your delivery location. Certain carriers provide delivery options when you're not home, so we advise choosing the safest delivery option available. Please refer to Section 5 for information about optional delivery instructions and associated risks.

9.6 Our Responsibility: We cannot accept responsibility for lost or stolen shipments at the customer's receiving end after successful delivery confirmation by the carrier.

9.7 Tracking Information Delays:

(a) Tracking Activation: After your Order ships, it may take 24-72 hours for tracking information to appear in the carrier's system and begin updating.

(b) Initial Status: Your tracking number may initially show as "label created" or "information received" for 1-3 business days before showing movement. This is normal and means the carrier has received shipping information but has not yet picked up the package from the warehouse.

(c) Infrequent Updates: International shipments may have infrequent tracking updates, especially during customs clearance or while in transit between countries.

(d) No Updates: If your tracking shows no updates for more than 7 business days, contact us at support@allurecollectivestore.com and we will investigate with the carrier.

10. SHIPPING COSTS AND FREE SHIPPING

10.1 How Shipping Costs Are Calculated: Shipping costs are calculated at checkout based on your delivery location, the origin of your items, and weight. Your final shipping cost is always shown before you complete your purchase.

10.2 Free Shipping on Qualifying Orders: We offer free shipping on qualifying orders, where it applies at checkout. When your order qualifies, the shipping cost is reduced to zero.

10.3 What "Free Shipping" Covers: Free shipping applies to the transport cost only. It does not remove import duties, taxes or carrier fees, which depend on your destination and your chosen delivery option:

(a) Standard Shipping (DDU): Where free shipping applies, your transport cost is zero. Any import duties, taxes or carrier fees are paid by you directly to the carrier or customs authority on delivery.

(b) Priority All-Inclusive (DDP): On qualifying orders, your transport cost may also be reduced to zero. The applicable import duties, taxes and carrier fees are quoted live by the carrier and calculated at checkout, so the total shown is your final landed cost with nothing more to pay on delivery.

(c) Duty & Tax Subsidies: From time to time, and entirely at our discretion, we may subsidise part of the import duties, taxes or carrier fees on qualifying orders. Where a subsidy applies, the amount you pay at checkout may differ from, and be lower than, the actual amount shown on the carrier's or customs authority's invoice. Any such subsidy is a promotional benefit, has no cash value, and may be changed or withdrawn at any time without notice.

10.4 Promotional Nature: Free shipping and any duty or tax incentives are promotional offers. Terms vary by destination and may be changed, modified, or discontinued at any time without prior notice.

11. CUSTOMS DUTIES AND TAXES

11.1 Priority All-Inclusive (DDP): This is our recommended "White-Glove" service, offered for orders shipped to the United States and other selected countries as displayed at checkout. You are charged a total-guaranteed price at checkout which includes all customs duties, import taxes, and carrier fees.

11.2 Refunds of Import Duties, Taxes or Carrier Fees: Whether import duties, taxes or carrier fees are refundable on a valid return depends on the destination, as set out in our Return and Refund Policy. For orders shipped to the United States, these are refunded together with the item price, less the applicable return shipping fee. For all other countries, import duties, taxes or carrier fees are not refundable, as once paid they are collected by customs authorities, tax agencies and carriers and cannot be recovered by us. We do not charge a restocking fee.

11.3 Internal Regional Shipping: Customs duties and import taxes generally do not apply to orders shipped within the European Union (EU) or where the origin and destination countries are the same. Standard local VAT applies.

11.4 Pricing Adjustments: While we strive for total-price accuracy, customs authorities may occasionally review a shipment and amend the final landing price. We cannot accept responsibility for additional charges or delays caused by customs reviews.

11.5 DDU (Delivered Duty Unpaid) & Fallback: If you voluntarily select a DDU option or if DDP is unavailable, you are responsible for paying all fees directly to the carrier. Carriers often charge an additional administrative or disbursement fee to handle tax payments at the door. These fees are the responsibility of the customer.

11.6 Selection of DDU over DDP: Where both DDP (Duties Paid) and DDU (Duties Unpaid) shipping options are available at checkout, if you voluntarily select the DDU option (often displayed as a lower shipping cost), you expressly acknowledge and agree that:

(a) You are opting out of our pre-paid duty service.

(b) You assume full liability for all import duties, taxes, and carrier fees charged by your local customs authority.

11.7 Refused or Uncollected Shipments: If you do not accept a shipment at delivery, or fail to collect a shipment from the carrier depot, the shipment will be automatically returned to the warehouse. We cannot take any responsibility for a lost carrier notice to collect a shipment from the carrier depot, or where the customer failed to follow the carrier's delivery instructions or options. Any additional carrier charges will be charged to you, including a handling fee of $50 USD. Refunds for pre-paid import duties, taxes or carrier fees on refused shipments will be processed strictly in accordance with our Return and Refund Policy, minus all applicable administrative and return freight costs. The remaining refund due will be processed within 14 business days of the shipment arriving back at the warehouse.

11.8 Customs Documentation and Declared Values:

(a) External Documentation Required: All international shipments include customs documentation attached to the outside of the package as required by international shipping regulations and customs authorities. This documentation is separate from any internal packing materials.

(b) Information on External Customs Forms: The external customs documentation includes the product description, Harmonized System (HS) code, declared value of the goods, country of origin, quantity and weight, and sender and recipient information.

(c) Declared Value Visibility: The declared value shown on external customs documentation represents the actual value of the goods for customs purposes and may be visible on the outside of the package. This is a legal requirement for international shipping and customs clearance. While our warehouses generally do not include invoices or receipts inside packages (as stated in Section 7.4), customs documentation with declared values is always required on the outside of international shipments by law. This is particularly important to consider for gift purchases.

(d) Accurate Declarations: We declare accurate values on all customs documentation in compliance with international trade laws and regulations. Under-declaring values is illegal and can result in customs seizure, fines, and criminal penalties.

(e) Privacy Considerations: If you have privacy concerns about declared values being visible on external customs documentation, we recommend having products shipped to a secure location where you can receive packages directly, using a package receiving service, or considering domestic shipping options where available.

(f) No Control Over Customs Forms: We cannot modify, remove, or conceal customs documentation as this is required by law for international shipments.

11.9 Customer Identity Verification (KYC): Certain jurisdictions (including but not limited to India, Brazil, South Korea, and selected Middle Eastern markets) require the recipient to provide identity documentation (KYC) to customs authorities or carriers to facilitate clearance. You acknowledge that providing this documentation is your sole responsibility. Allure Collective Store is not liable for delays, storage fees, or returns resulting from a customer's failure to provide required documentation to the carrier or customs.

12. U.S. CUSTOMS REGULATIONS (EFFECTIVE AUGUST 29, 2025)

12.1 Regulatory Changes: Following changes to U.S. customs regulations effective August 29, 2025, the de minimis exception (previously allowing duty-free entry for shipments under $800 USD) has been eliminated for certain product categories. All shipments to the United States may now be subject to customs duties and processing fees, regardless of order value.

12.2 DDP Service for U.S. Orders: To provide you with a seamless shopping experience, Allure Collective Store offers Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) service for all U.S. Orders, and for other selected countries as indicated in the AllureMen checkout. All applicable customs duties, taxes, and processing fees are calculated and collected at checkout, so you won't face any unexpected charges upon delivery.

12.3 Fees Applicable to U.S. Orders: When you place an Order for delivery to the United States, the following charges will be calculated and included in your total at checkout:

(a) U.S. Customs Duties (based on HS code and country of origin).

(b) U.S. Import Taxes.

(d) Merchandise Processing Fee (MPF) (assessed by U.S. Customs and Border Protection).

12.4 Fee Variations: Shipping carrier charges and customs processing fees are subject to change without prior notice and are beyond our control. While we make every reasonable effort to provide accurate estimates at checkout, actual fees may vary based on changes to carrier fees, customs regulations, tariff rates, product classifications, or currency exchange rates.

12.5 State Sales and Use Tax: Depending on your state of residence, additional state or local sales taxes may apply. Some states require customers to file use tax returns for purchases where sales tax was not collected. Please consult your local tax authority for specific requirements.

12.6 Accurate Product Information: All our products include Harmonized System (HS) codes, country of origin information, and detailed product descriptions for accurate customs declarations.

12.7 Duty Drawback: By initiating a return of any product shipped to the United States, you agree to disclaim and assign exclusively to Allure Collective Store (Ultima NZ Limited) any right to or interest in duty drawback you may have with respect to the returned item.

13. DELIVERY ISSUES

13.1 Order Hasn't Arrived: If your Order hasn't arrived within the expected delivery timeframe:

(a) Check your tracking information (sent via email/SMS or in your Account under "Order History").

(b) Check with your local carrier - they may have attempted delivery and left the package at a depot or with a neighbor.

(c) Allow for delivery delays - shipments may be delayed due to customs, weather, carrier backlogs, or other circumstances beyond our control.

(d) Contact us if significantly delayed - if your Order hasn't arrived within 21 days of the dispatch date, contact us immediately at support@allurecollectivestore.com with your order number and tracking information.

(e) Investigation Process: We will work with the carrier to investigate missing shipments. Carrier investigations typically take 7-14 business days and require cooperation from both you and the carrier. We will keep you updated, but resolution times depend on carrier response and may take longer in some cases. Please note we cannot process refunds or replacements for Orders reported missing after 21 days from the dispatch date.

13.2 Tracking Shows Delivered But Not Received: If tracking shows delivered but you haven't received your Order:

(a) Check around your delivery location (porch, garage, mailroom, building reception, with a neighbor).

(b) Verify the delivery address on your Order confirmation matches your actual address.

(d) Contact the carrier using your tracking number and request proof of delivery.

(e) Contact us immediately - if you still cannot locate your package, contact us at support@allurecollectivestore.com within 48 hours of the delivery date shown on tracking. We will work with the carrier to investigate. Please note that we cannot accept responsibility for packages that show as delivered by the carrier, but we will assist in the investigation to the best of our abilities. Carrier investigations for delivered packages typically take 7-21 business days and depend on the carrier's findings.

13.3 Only Some Products Arrived: If you've ordered multiple products and only some have arrived:

(a) Check all tracking information provided - products may ship from different locations and arrive on different days.

(b) Each shipment has its own tracking number.

13.4 Investigation Timelines and Customer Cooperation:

(a) Carrier Investigations: When we initiate an investigation with a carrier regarding lost, damaged, or missing shipments, the investigation process is controlled by the carrier and typically takes 7-30 business days depending on the nature of the claim and carrier procedures.

(b) Customer Cooperation Required: Successful resolution requires your cooperation, including providing accurate and complete information, responding promptly to requests for additional information or documentation, checking thoroughly with neighbors and household members, providing photos of damage or defects, and allowing reasonable time for carrier investigations to complete.

(c) Our Role: We act as an intermediary between you and the carrier during investigations. We cannot control carrier investigation timelines or outcomes, but we will advocate on your behalf and keep you informed of progress.

(d) Resolution Timing: We will process refunds or replacements once the carrier investigation is complete, the carrier provides their findings, and we receive confirmation of the claim outcome. This process may take 14-45 business days from the date you first report the issue, depending on the complexity of the case and carrier response times.

(e) Patience Appreciated: We appreciate your patience and understanding during shipping issue investigations. We are committed to resolving issues fairly and in accordance with carrier policies and our Return and Refund Policy.

13.5 Undeliverable Packages and Return to Sender:

(a) Reasons for Return: Packages may be returned to the warehouse as undeliverable due to an incorrect or incomplete address provided by the customer, the customer refusing delivery, the customer failing to collect from a carrier depot, multiple failed delivery attempts, customs refusal or rejection, or the carrier being unable to deliver to the location.

(b) Notification: We will notify you if your package is being returned to sender.

(c) Refund Process: Once the package arrives back at the warehouse, we will process a refund strictly minus the original shipping costs (non-refundable), the return shipping costs charged by the carrier, any import duties, taxes or carrier fees incurred by the return, and a handling fee of $50 USD. Any refund of pre-paid import duties, taxes or carrier fees will be processed strictly in accordance with our Return and Refund Policy, which determines refundability by destination.

(d) Processing Time: Refunds for returned packages will be processed within 14 business days of the package arriving back at the warehouse.

(e) Customer Responsibility: You are responsible for providing accurate delivery information and being available to receive shipments or collect from carrier depots.

14. PRICING ERRORS AND ORDER CANCELLATION

14.1 Pricing Errors: Whilst every effort is made to ensure details on our Website are accurate, there may from time to time be cases where errors occur in pricing, product descriptions, or availability.

14.2 Error Discovery: If we discover an error in the price of any products that you have ordered, we will inform you via email as soon as reasonably possible and provide you with the option to re-confirm your Order at the correct price or cancel it without penalty.

14.3 Right to Decline: In the event of such an error, we reserve the right to decline to sell the product to you at the original incorrect listed price, even if you have completed the checkout process and payment has been processed.

14.4 Unable to Contact: If we are unable to contact you using the contact information provided, or if you do not respond within a reasonable time, your Order will be treated as cancelled.

14.5 Refund: If you cancel or we cancel due to a pricing error and you have already paid for the goods, we shall refund the full amount to your original payment method as soon as reasonably possible.

15. LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY

15.1 Carrier Responsibility: We cannot accept responsibility for loss or damage of any shipment at the delivery location where a shipment has not been collected and signed directly by the purchaser or authorized recipient.

15.2 Transit Cover and Claims: Loss or damage incurred in transit while the shipment is in the carrier's possession is subject to a carrier claim. We will manage any valid claim as part of our Return and Refund Policy. However, carrier claim investigations require cooperation from both the customer and the carrier, and may take 14-30 business days or longer to resolve depending on the complexity of the claim and carrier response times. We appreciate your patience and cooperation during this process.

15.3 Customs Issues: We cannot accept responsibility for additional charges, delays, confiscation, seizure, or destruction of items by customs or border protection authorities.

15.4 Carrier Notices: We cannot take any responsibility for a lost carrier notice to collect a shipment from the carrier depot, or where the customer failed to follow the carrier's delivery instructions, options, or requirements.

15.5 Incorrect Information: We cannot accept responsibility for incorrect, incomplete, inaccurate, or outdated delivery details provided by the customer, or for any shipment lost, delayed, returned, or undeliverable due to incorrect information.

15.6 Delivered Packages: We cannot accept responsibility for packages that show as delivered by the carrier according to tracking information, but we will assist in the investigation process to the best of our abilities.

15.7 Delivery Timeframes: We cannot be held liable for any losses, damages, inconvenience, or consequences as a result of delivery occurring outside of our expected time frame. You are not released from your obligations as a customer should your Order be delivered in a time frame other than our expected delivery time.

16. SECURITY VALIDATION AND FRAUD PREVENTION

16.1 Security Checks: If your Account or Order needs to undergo security validation, verification, or fraud prevention checks, this will impact the processing and delivery time.

16.2 Processing Delays: Security validation may add several business days to processing time.

16.3 Our Protection: We are not responsible for any delays caused by security validation procedures, which are implemented to protect both our business and our customers.
