Does the shipping fee cover custom fee and tax?

Please double-check your country's customs regulations. Each country has different rules regarding the customs fee and tax. If you get charged for any customs fees or taxes, we are not responsible to cover it. Please keep in mind that we do not have control over the import taxes because customs taxes are charged by your local government.

Shipping

My box is missing an item or is damaged/broken. What should I do?

We feel terrible that you’ve encountered such a situation. We’d love to see each and every box arrive in pristine condition - but, unfortunately, we cannot always supervise the entire delivery process from end-to-end.

In the case an item comes damaged or expired from the manufacturer, or is missing (the box is physically arrived in good condition but an item is not in your box), please contact our customer support team from this form and choose the option missing item or damaged item under Shipping issue.

You are required to submit pictures mentioned below in order for our support team to expedite a resolution:

Pictures of all sides of the box (applies to both missing and damaged item issue)
Pictures of all items received in the box (applies to both missing and damaged item issue)
Pictures of individual items, showing the damaged part (applies to damaged item issue)
Compensation offered will be in the form of partial refund or item replacement and every customer is eligible for the compensation offer for the cases above.

Validity of a damaged item will be at the discretion of the support agent.

Any damages to the boxes or the packaging of a product will not qualify for replacement if the content is undamaged. Broken items such as cookies, chips, or other fragile snacks and melted chocolate due to weather also may not qualify for replacement.

Minor cosmetic damages, such as small scratch may not qualify to be compensated.

Due to inventory changes, any issues must be reported within 7 days of receiving your box. Replacement items will be shipped out in the next shipment once confirmed by the support agent. If we do not have the missing item in stock, store credit may be applied to your account instead.

My box has not arrived yet!

All boxes will be shipped by a third party carrier. If your shipping method without tracking and your order gets lost during transit, we unfortunately cannot offer a refund or reshipment as the status and location of the package is out of our control.

You would be eligible for a reshipment if your order has been confirmed as returned to our warehouse by the carrier and our team. After the return confirmation, we can reship your order. Please note you will need to pay the reshipping fee.

Kindly check your tracking progress and contact the local post office regularly to avoid the box is being returned to us.

Due to the uncertainties surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on global shipping, shipment and delivery may take longer than usual.
