Returns & refunds

Last updated: June 2026

Quick Answer: The most important protection is QC, not returns. Before any item ships you receive QC photos; if it is not right, you reject it then — it never leaves the warehouse and you are not charged for shipping it. After international dispatch, returns and refunds are handled case-by-case on WhatsApp with photos.

QC is your main protection

With agent buying, the return process you are used to from local retail is replaced by something better: inspection before shipping. Once your item arrives at the warehouse you receive QC photos (see our QC guide). If the item has a defect, is the wrong size or colour, or simply is not what you expected, you reject it at that point. Because it never ships internationally, you avoid the cost and hassle of a cross-border return entirely. This is why we stress acting promptly on QC — it is the moment your money is most protected.

If something is wrong on arrival

Occasionally an issue is only visible in person. If your item arrives damaged, faulty or not matching the approved QC photos, message us on WhatsApp with clear photos as soon as possible. We take it up with the seller and agent and work toward a fair resolution — replacement, partial refund, or return — depending on the cause and the seller's policy.

Who pays for what

Faults caught at QC cost you nothing to "return," since the item simply is not shipped. For post-delivery problems, responsibility for any return shipping is discussed case-by-case: a clear seller or QC fault is treated very differently from a change of mind. We aim to be transparent and reasonable rather than hide behind fine print.

Verdict: Treat QC as your return policy — inspect carefully and reject before shipping, and the vast majority of return situations never arise.

Frequently asked questions

Can I return an item?

Yes — the key checkpoint is QC. Before anything ships you receive QC photos; if the item is not right, you reject it at that stage and it is not shipped. After international shipping, returns are case-by-case and discussed on WhatsApp.

What if my item arrives damaged or wrong?

Contact us on WhatsApp with photos. Issues caught at QC are resolved before shipping; problems found on arrival are handled individually with the seller and agent.

Who pays return shipping?

It depends on the situation — faults identified at QC cost you nothing because the item never ships. For post-delivery issues, responsibility is discussed case-by-case based on the cause.
