Do not order if you lack the funds to pay or if still unsure about going through with the purchase.ESTIMATED TIME OF ARRIVAL:
Strictly no rushing of orders. Orders are not immediately shipped to the Philippines as they are dependent upon the sole discretion of the seller. Furthermore, it undergoes many processes and varies from NORMAL ETA of 2-3 months to SLOW ETA of 5-7 months to reach the destination country. Once it is in transit, it usually takes 30-45 days before it arrives at my PH address. There may be unforeseen circumstances such as inclement weather, delayed logistics shipment, port congestion, and etc. Do not order from the shop if you are unable to wait patiently.PRODUCT ARRIVALS:
Once the items arrive at my PH address, 45 days will be the allotted time for the items to be stored. It will start on the day notices are sent that the order/s is ready for shipment. Consolidation of items is acceptable as long as it is within the 45-days storage period of the first item that arrived. If the buyer still has not claimed or scheduled shipment of the order/s that arrived beyond the given grace period, it will be automatically up for sale. The buyer will not be informed in any way of the incoming deadline or if it is already after the set deadline. However, if the buyer notifies the seller that they want the order that arrived past the storage deadline to be shipped to them, it can be accepted under the conditions:
1. A storage fee will be charged beyond the storage deadline
| DAYS REMAINING UNSHIPPED | CHARGED FEES |
|---|---|
| Past 1-30 days | ₱350.00 |
| Past 31-60 days | ₱500.00 |

The policy on the storage period will immediately take effect after the additional 2 weeks have passed.RETURNS AND LIABILITIES:
The seller has no control over what happens during the shipping process, therefore, one will not be held liable if the product arrives damaged or becomes lost while in transit. Returns are not allowed and are strictly non-negotiable. With assurance, the utmost care is taken when the items are packed and enough protection is done to ensure that they arrive safely.Items that arrive damaged will not be refunded but a ₱40 discount can be given for the next order as consolation under the conditions, both of which must be strictly followed:
1. The complaint is filed within 3 days from arrival date at the buyer’s address
2. A very clear, unedited, uncut, and uncropped unboxing video is provided showing all sides of the package beginning from the opening of the parcel, accompanied by a detailed item inspection.FOR R-19+ PRODUCTS:

Customers below 18 years old must present a valid ID, a legal guardian's valid ID, and a signed authorization letter from the legal guardian that provided the valid ID upon submitting the form to purchase a product and send payment.FOR MINORS WHO ORDERED NON-AGE-RESTRICTED PRODUCTS:
The seller assumes that the buyer has already been permitted by one’s legal guardians upon purchasing a product and sending payment. Once again, there will be no refunds even if a parent contacts the seller about not being informed beforehand, and any other concerns that are under no circumstances may be deemed valid. They will not be entertained for any reason whatsoever. The responsibility of ordering from the seller falls upon the buyer.RUDE / FINICKY CUSTOMERS, BOGUS/GHOST BUYERS, AND JOY RESERVERS:
Said people will have their information posted online, will be automatically blocked, and will no longer be allowed to place future orders.

MODES OF DELIVERY
DELIVERY METHODS
➸ Gogo Xpress: An option to add insurance for the products is available by a payment of 1% of the total product price that serves as the item protection fee. The local shipping fee can either be COD or paid in advance through GCash. Some areas are temporarily unavailable for delivery; buyer will be contacted by DM for a change in the MOD if the system shows that their location is not covered in the list of areas being delivered to.➸ J&T Express: As requested by buyers, I have decided to add this shipping option. However, please note that there will be a convenience fee of ₱15.00 as I do not have cash on-hand most often and I will be paying the pick-up rider via GCash, which they require a fee for. The local shipping fee can only be paid in advance through GCash. Delivery for bulky items is not possible for this shipping option as riders are given the option to change the parcel size and demand higher shipping fee. Some areas are temporarily unavailable for delivery; buyer will be contacted by DM for a change in the MOD if the system shows that their location is not covered in the list of areas being delivered to.➸ Same-Day Delivery: The services available are Grab and Lalamove. Booking will be made solely by the seller which will be done in conformity with the seller’s schedule and preparation of parcels.NOTE:
· Seller's location is Paranaque. No other MOD is available except for what is stated. Kindly check on your own for the MOD most recommended to your area or most convenient for you. It is difficult to accept the request of inputting the address to every MOD just to see which one will display the cheapest delivery fee.
· On-hand items are sorted and packed first before checkout links are provided or bookings are made. It may take a few days or longer, therefore, please submit the shipping form immediately and contact the seller ahead of time if you want the shipment of the on-hand item/s to arrive at an earlier date.
