CUSTOMS

Please note that it is the responsibility of the customer to be aware of any additional customs restrictions, clearance fees, import duties and rejected delivery costs which may apply to the products you are purchasing.

We always declare correct order values. We clearly show the cost of goods and the cost of shipping for easy and accurate processing through customs.
 


The shipping fee on a returned parcel is non-refundable as this has already been paid to the courier.  If your order is returned to us due to unpaid taxes / import duties, we will only reimburse the total amount paid for the products if they return in a saleable condition.
