Refunds after deduction for the chargeable shipping charges and taxes shall then be returned to the credit card used for the purchase.

HOW IS THE DELIVERY PROCESSED?
Most of our delivery agents make two attempts to deliver a parcel and they might require a signature upon delivery of parcel. It is generally up to the delivery agent’s discretion to determine whether a signature is required. The delivery agents will attempt to contact the recipient at the given contact number to rearrange a delivery. However, this may be unsuccessful if the contact number is unreachable. Please indicate country code and area code clearly when placing an order. If the recipient failed to receive the package after the delivery agent’s delivery attempts, the package will be returned to us.
WHAT SHOULD I TAKE NOTE OF WHEN THE ORDER IS INTENDED AS A GIFT?
If a recipient is not expecting a gift, they may refuse the package if they believe it was sent to them in error. You may wish to let the recipient know that a surprise is on the way. Undeliverable package charges will be borne by the buyer.
