International orders must be paid for through PayPal and the PayPal verification process must be completed before I will ship. Please follow the instructions on the PayPal webpage.
Shipping will be via USPS Priority Mail International unless a different option is requested.

Shipping:

We ship via USPS Priority Mail and FedEx. Shipping costs are calculated by order weight and added to your order total. You will have a choice when you check out.

*****Insurance is optional. However, if you do not choose to add insurance, I cannot be responsible for any loss or damage that occurs during shipping. If you choose to ship via USPS Priority Mail but do not insure, you will not be able to file a claim for loss (even if it is their fault) or damage. Orders shipped via Fed Ex have insurance included for up to $100. If your order is over $100., you will need to purchase insurance for only that amount over $100.

Many of our items are one-of-a-kinds and are not replaceable. I will take great care in packaging your items, but we all know Murphy's Law: "If it can be broken or lost, it will be broken or lost without insurance." Please make sure your purchase is adequately covered. Please open your package and check for breakage as soon as it arives. Shipping damage must be reported within 7 days of delivery. Refunds for breakage cannot be made once this time limit has passed.

Insurance does not cover theft from the front porch once a package is delivered. Sweet Necessi-Teas is not responsible for theft or loss once it has been shipped. Please make proper arrangements with your carrier(s) if no one is available during delivery hours.

Shipping charges are for the continental (lower 48 states) US only. Alaska and Hawaii will have additional charges. These additional expenses must be paid prior to shipping. I will contact you and let you know the amount and discuss shipping and payment options.

Order Processing:

Please allow 3-5 days for your order to be processed and shipped. If you need an item for a specific date, please let me know in the comments portion of the order form. I will make every effort to accomodate your request.

Returns and Refunds:

Customer satisfaction is very important to me. All items must be returned in their original condition for a refund or store credit. Shipping fees and insurance fees are non-refundable. Returns must have prior approval within 3 days of receipt. Please contact me for a Return Authorization number. Returns must be received within 30 days of original purchase date. Return shipping is at the customer's expense and packages must be insured for the full value of the item. Lost or damaged items shipped without insurance are not subject to our refund or return policy.

All refunds will be credited back to a valid PayPal Account only. If there is not a valid PayPal account, a store credit will be issued.
