Incorrect Recipient Information
If delivery could not be done because of an incorrectly specified recipient’s address, our company will not be responsible for delivery delays or failure, therefore no refund will be allowed. Some of our orders are handled by a 3rd party shipper such as DHL, FedEx, UPS or others, so whenever the address is incorrect: updates in their systems & rerouting may potentially delay delivery by 1-3 business days OR lead to a complete delivery failure (when the product shelf life no longer allows for delivery delay).
