If your order has exceeded its estimated delivery timeframe, please contact our customer care team.
For shipments believed to be lost, we may work with the applicable carrier, supplier, or fulfillment partner to investigate the shipment.
Depending on the results of the investigation and applicable carrier or supplier policies, an eligible order may qualify for a replacement or refund.

Receive multiple packages for a single order

Receive separate tracking numbers

Receive products on different delivery dates
-
Receive products through different shipping carriers
You will not be charged additional shipping solely because we choose to fulfill an eligible order in multiple shipments, unless otherwise disclosed before purchase.
