If your item is a gift, please ensure the receiver knows about it to avoid parcel rejection. A re-delivery cost will occur if the parcel has to be resent.
The expected time delivery given by each courier is for reference only. Delivery might be quicker, or take longer than expected due to various reasons. If you do not receive your item within 15 business days, please contact our customer care team.
Pick up or arranging your own courier is not available at our warehouse to ensure our distribution centre can dispatch all goods efficiently at all times.
14. Postcodes Not Yet Covered
Due to the limited access of our carriers, there are certain postcodes that we are currently unable to deliver to. Please contact us if you believe your postcode is usually difficult to deliver to.
We try our best to include all of the undeliverable postcodes on the list, however, there are still a few postcodes that could be undeliverable for certain products. Orders with no shipment service will be cancelled and refunded automatically.
Please contact our customer support team for more information if you need the item to be delivered to a remote postcode to ensure your order can be processed successfully.
