Navigating Shipping Insurance: Why a Replacement, Not a Refund, Is Our Policy for Lost Packages

When you entrust us with your order, we understand the importance of it arriving safely and on time. To provide peace of mind, we offer shipping insurance. This policy is in place to protect your purchase against the unfortunate event of a package being lost in transit. Here’s a clear explanation of our policy for lost packages covered by shipping insurance: a replacement will be shipped to you, and a refund will not be issued.

Understanding Our "Replacement, Not Refund" Policy

At its core, our shipping insurance policy is designed to ensure you receive the product you ordered. If your package is officially declared "lost" by the shipping carrier, our commitment is to reship your exact order at no additional cost to you.

Why a Replacement?

The primary purpose of shipping insurance in this context is to fulfill the original transaction. You wanted our product, and we want to get it to you, even if the first attempt fails. By sending a replacement, we are upholding our end of the sale, ensuring you get the items you paid for. This approach allows us to streamline the resolution process and get your products back on their way to you as quickly as possible.

What Does "Deemed Lost" Mean?

A package isn't considered "lost" simply because it is delayed. Each shipping carrier has specific criteria and timeframes for declaring a package officially lost. This process typically involves an investigation by the carrier to trace the package's last known location. Once the carrier concludes their investigation and confirms the package cannot be located, it is "deemed lost." At this point, our replacement policy is triggered.

What Our Shipping Insurance Covers:

• Lost Packages: If a package is confirmed as lost by the shipping carrier, we will ship a replacement of the same items to you at no charge.

• Damaged Items: If your order arrives with significant damage that affects the usability of the product, please contact us within 48 hours of delivery. We will require photographic evidence of the damage to the packaging and the items. Upon review, we will arrange for a replacement of the damaged goods.

What is Not Covered:

The Claims Process: A Step-by-Step Guide

1. Notify Us Promptly: If you suspect your package is lost (i.e., the tracking has not updated in an unusual number of days) or if it has arrived damaged, please contact our customer service team immediately.

2. Carrier Investigation for Lost Packages: For packages that appear to be lost, we will initiate a formal trace with the shipping carrier. This process can take several business days as the carrier conducts a thorough search.

3. Provide Evidence for Damaged Packages: For damaged items, you will be asked to provide clear photos of the box, the shipping label, and the damaged product(s). This is necessary for our claim with the carrier.

4. Resolution:

   • For Lost Packages: Once the carrier officially deems the package lost, we will process and ship your replacement order.

   • For Damaged Packages: After reviewing your photos and confirming the damage, we will ship your replacement items.

Important Considerations:

• Refunds: Please note that our shipping insurance policy strictly provides for the replacement of lost or damaged items. Refunds will not be issued in these circumstances as the insurance is in place to guarantee you receive the product you purchased.

• Timeframes: We adhere to the timeframes set by our shipping carriers for filing claims. It is crucial to contact us in a timely manner to ensure your claim can be processed.

By offering a clear and consistent replacement policy, we aim to provide a reliable and fair solution for those unexpected and frustrating moments in the shipping process. We appreciate your understanding and are always here to help should you have any questions about your order or our policies.
