10. Undeliverable Orders

If a parcel is undeliverable it will be either be returned to us but in the majority of circumstances it will be destroyed and you will be charged the full amount, there are several reasons why a parcel may be returned:

Incorrect address; If the address supplied is incorrect or outdated the parcel will typically returned to us or destroyed by the carrier or the unitendedrecipient.
Incorrect address format; If our system doesn’t recognise the way an address was entered the parcel may be assigned to a carrier that can’that actually deliver to that address
Failed Delivery Attempts; Most carriers make more than one attempt to deliver a parcel. If they cannot succesfully deliver a parcel it will be returned to us or destroyed.
Illegible Address; In rare cases address labels may become impossible to read in transit. If that happens a carrier will return the parcel to us or destroyed.
Damaged in Transit; If a parcel is damaged while it’s on its way to you the carrier may return it without attempting delivery or destroy it.
