*Estimated delivery time, may vary for different countries and remote areas

Delivery time shown at our website is approximate and does not guarantee parcel arrival in this estimated window of time. Please note that it could take longer than expected due to customs clearance procedures or other issues. Late delivery is not an excuse for returning the package at our expense.
In the event that package is late or stranded at customs office due to clearance, please contact the courier service which is handling the package or customs office of your country for clarification of the situation and other details. Please be aware that once the package leaves our office, we have no control over it and we are relying on the track number just like you (receiver) for updates of its whereabouts.
For Economy shipping option the tracking is limited to key events such as - Acceptance of a package > Transit > Delivered. If the package is not delivered within 4 weeks after posting, we will launch an investigation with government post (service for economy shipping) upon addressee request to do so. Investigation takes approximately 1-3 weeks and based on the official investigation report, actions will be taken accordingly. 

For Expedited shipping option the tracking is more detailed, and package can be traced fairly precise to last known location as well as Proof of Delivery. If the package is not delivered within estimated time, please contact the courier service who is handling the package. Sometimes, the courier will reach out to customers via e-mail for additional information regarding the customs clearance. The e-mail from courier can be in your "SPAM" folder, so please check it from time to time if you're expecting a package. Tracking information is sent to customer when order is fulfilled, please pay attention to this information.
In the event that the package was not delivered and the customer has been in touch with courier service about it already, next step is to contact us to launch an investigation with the courier. Depending on the country, the investigation can take between 1-7 weeks and based on the official investigation report appropriate actions will be taken.
