2. Situations Covered by Buyer Protection Policy

Within our Buyer Protection Policy you are protected in the following circumstances:

  • 2.1 Non-delivery and mis-delivery cases. You may be eligible for a refund if you arrange shipping with the supplier and the item doesn’t arrive within the time indicated by the supplier or by the maximum period for delivery (30 days). Please, provide valid shipping and billing addresses in order your item to be correctly delivered. However, if the item is tracked and shows that it is already delivered to your Post Office, we’ll consider the item delivered, meaning you can not request a refund for non- delivery.
  • 2.2 Item not as described. You have legal right to request a refund or exchange the item if:
    • 2.2.1 The item you received is different from that you ordered (e.g. You had ordered tobacco flavored e-liquid, but received cherry flavored);
    • 2.2.2 The item has manufacture defects;
    • 2.2.3 The item is damaged during shipping;
    • 2.2.4 The number of items received is wrong;

Our Buyer Protection Policy does not cover the following circumstances:

  • 3.1 Buyer’s mistake.
    You won’t be eligible where you mistakenly purchase an item or a different kind of item to what you intended. However, you may negotiate and agree on return or exchange. Please note, that in this case you are responsible for shipping back costs.
  • 3.2 Buyer’s change of mind.
    You will not be considered eligible, if you buy an item and then subsequently for any reason change mind and no longer need the item you have ordered.
  • 3.3 Items damaged during pick up by the buyer.
    If you or other individual acting on your behalf pick up the item, and due to the nature of the item it suffers damage while being picked up by you and not by Post Services, you won’t be eligible for Buyer Protection.
  • 3.4 Non-delivery where items are shipped to a vacant address.

If you arrange for an item to be shipped to an address where you won’t be available to pick the item up, Buyer Protection won’t apply.

4. How Does Buyer Protection Work?

The products placed on this website carry an implied, industry-standard 14-day standard warranty, and 60-day manufacturer warranty against defects due to manufacturing failure.

If you come up with problems that are covered by our Buyer Protection Policy, please follow the steps below:

  • You should first contact us directly and report the issue within 60 days from the date of receiving the item in order to settle any refund or return issues. Please note, that you should not confirm the delivery until you do not resolve the problem.
  •  You can also get our help by escalating dispute. Please visit our Open Dispute page, in order to get step-by-step guideline on how to open dispute within our website. In the likely event where we find that there is a fault on the supplier's part (e.g. non-delivery of products or items are not as described), we will reverse your payment back into your account.
  • If we decide to refund you under Buyer Protection, your money will usually be returned to the original source provided by you at the checkout procedure (either your card or bank account).
  • If this doesn’t work (e.g. because your credit card has expired or your bank account has closed), we may determine the most appropriate way to get you your money back. In this case, we may request your help to find the best solution for you. It may take up to 60 days for a full refund.
