Please allow 72 Hours for handling time after purchase: Saturday and Sunday does not count as business days. We work extremely hard to get your order out as fast as possible. If you need your order by a specific date, please email us before purchasing to ensure your order will arrive on time. We do not ship orders over the weekend during the warm summer months.
Once your package has been handed over to the shipping carrier, we are no longer responsible for delivery delays caused by them.
HEAT DISCLAIMER:
Since food products cannot be returned, and we do not refund for melting, please take care when placing an order and keep in mind the following (if you have any concerns or specific requirements, please email us before you place your order): We do offer ice packs with insulation for sale. There are no refunds for melted items if ice packs were not purchased.
If it is warm in your area, stay away from heat-sensitive items as we do not refund for melting! And always make sure someone is around to receive the package. We do not ship over the weekend during warm months. We also sell ice packs and insulation during hot weather months. If tracking shows items are left in the mailbox there will be no refunds for melting.
What Can You Do:
1) Make sure someone is home to accept package or meet mail carrier to avoid package sitting in an hot mailbox.
2) Track order constantly to be notified when item has been delivered
3) Check Temperature in your area before placing order
4) Ship order to a business address.
FAILED DELIVERIES:
INCORRECT SHIPPING ADDRESS: If the customer provides the wrong address when placing an order, the following shall apply:
-If the order is returned to Sweet Mood Candy in good condition: Customer will be responsible for the full cost of re-shipping. This includes mail forwarding that is expired & packages that went unclaimed. An invoice will be emailed to the customer for the shipping costs. Package will be re-shipped after invoice has been paid.
-If the package is returned to Sweet Mood Candy but the contents are damaged, there will be no refunds.
Package Delivered to wrong Address: If your package shows delivered via the tracking but you cannot locate the package then it is the customers responsibility to contact USPS/FEDEX/UPS. Most times packages are mistakenly delivered to a neighbor.
Tracking Shows Arriving Late: In the event your tracking shows arriving late, it is the customers responsibility to contact the shipping carrier for an update. Most times, if it does show arriving late, it will update after a couple days and reroute to your location. Once packages leave our warehouse, Sweet Mood is not responsible for the transit time and what may occur during that process. If a claim has to be filed then it the customers responsibility to do so. Sweet Mood will not file a claim on the customers behalf.
REFUSAL OF PACKAGE:
If parcels are refused, original and return shipping costs will be charged to the purchaser's original form of payment.
