Shipping Delays

While we make every effort to deliver your order within the estimated timeframe, occasionally delays may occur due to:

• Incorrect or incomplete shipping information
• Customs clearance procedures (for international orders, if applicable)
• Unexpected carrier delays
• Natural disasters or severe weather conditions
• High volume periods such as major sales events or holidays

We will make reasonable efforts to inform you of any significant delays and provide updated delivery estimates.

Package Handling and Delivery

Delivery Attempts

Our shipping partners will typically attempt delivery during regular business hours. If no one is available to receive the package:

• For standard deliveries, the carrier may leave the package at your doorstep or a secure location at their discretion, unless a signature is required.
• For deliveries requiring a signature, the carrier will attempt delivery up to three times before returning the package to us.
• In some cases, the package may be left with a neighbor or at a local pickup point, and a delivery notification will be provided.

Inspection at Delivery

We recommend that you inspect your package upon delivery for any visible damage before accepting it. If the package appears damaged:

1. Note the damage on the carrier's delivery record
2. Take photos of the damaged packaging
3. Contact our customer support team immediately

Lost or Damaged Packages

If your package is lost or damaged during transit:

1. Contact our customer support team within 48 hours of the expected delivery date
2. Provide your order number and any relevant details
3. We will work with the shipping carrier to locate your package or process a replacement/refund

Address Changes

If you need to change your shipping address after placing an order:

• Contact our customer support team as soon as possible
• Address changes can only be accommodated if the order has not yet been processed for shipping
• Once an order has been shipped, we cannot change the delivery address

Special Promotions

From time to time, we may offer special shipping promotions such as free shipping or expedited shipping at reduced rates. The specific terms of these promotions will be clearly communicated at the time they are offered.
