Refund Policy
Because our products are food, we cannot accept returns for change of mind. If your order arrives damaged, wrong, incomplete or with a quality problem, tell us within [7] days of delivery and we will make it right.
1. What We Accept
We will replace or refund your item if:
- It arrived damaged: torn packaging, broken jar or seal, or contents spilled
- You received the wrong item: wrong product, size or type (for example, black pepper instead of white)
- Something is missing from your order
- There is a quality problem: the product is expired, mouldy, has an off smell, or contains foreign matter
- For bird's nest: the net weight is below what is stated on the package
2. What We Cannot Accept
- Change of mind, or ordering the wrong item by mistake
- Products that have been opened, used or stored incorrectly, unless there is a quality problem
- Natural variation in colour, size, aroma or piece count, as described on the product page
- Requests made more than [7] days after delivery
- Damage caused after delivery
3. Bird's Nest
Bird's nest is a high-value product, so we ask for extra care:
- Please record a continuous unboxing video, starting from the sealed parcel, when you open a bird's nest order.
- Do not soak or cook the nest before checking it. Once a nest has been soaked or cooked, we can only help if there is a clear quality problem.
- Weight claims must be supported by a video of the unopened box being weighed on a scale.
4. How to Request a Return or Refund
- Contact us by WhatsApp or email within [7] days of delivery.
- Send your order number, a short description of the problem, and clear photos or video of the item, packaging and shipping label.
- We will reply within [2] working days and tell you the next step.
Please keep the item and all packaging until your request is resolved.
5. What Happens Next
- Replacement: we send a new item at no extra cost, if it is in stock.
- Refund: if a replacement is not possible, or if you prefer, we refund the item.
- For small or obvious problems, we may resolve your request from photos alone, without asking you to send the item back.
6. Return Shipping
- Our mistake (damaged, wrong, missing or quality problem): we pay the return shipping, or arrange collection.
- We will not ask you to return an item without first agreeing the method with you.
7. Refunds
- Refunds are made to your original payment method within [7] working days after we approve your request.
- If the whole order is refunded because of our mistake, the shipping fee you paid is refunded too.
- Your bank or card issuer may take a few extra days to show the refund.
8. Cancelling an Order
You can cancel for a full refund before your order is shipped. Once it has been handed to the courier, it can no longer be cancelled.
