This policy applies to all purchases made at www.surprisecastle.com operated by Surprise Castle LLC, 4604 49th St N Ste 1054, St. Petersburg, FL 33709, USA (“Surprise Castle”, “we”, “us”, or “our”). It is your responsibility to familiarize yourself with this policy. By placing an order for any of our item(s), you indicate that you have read this policy and that you agree with and fully accept the terms of this policy. If you do not agree with or fully accept the terms of this policy, we ask that you do not place an order with us.
Delivery
Free standard shipping is available on eligible U.S. orders of $75 or more. Available shipping methods and charges are shown at checkout.
Most orders are processed within 2-3 business days. Your order will usually arrive within 2-7 days. As soon as we have handed over your order to our carrier, you will receive a shipping confirmation by email.
If we are experiencing a high volume of orders, shipments may be delayed by a few days. Please allow additional days in transit for delivery. If there will be a significant delay in shipment of your order, we will contact you via email or telephone. Orders placed on a Saturday, Sunday or Public Holiday will not be dispatched until the next working day.
Delays
We will try to ensure that item(s) are completed and delivered within the estimated time advised at time of purchase. However, delays do occasionally arise due to shipping issues, out of our control. If a delay occurs, we will let you know the new confirmed delivery date; however, this does not mean you have the right to cancel your order if it is beyond the estimated time frame.
Risk of Loss
All items purchased are made pursuant to a shipment contract with our couriers. This means that the risk of loss and title for such items pass to you upon our delivery of your order to our couriers. If you do not receive your order within 20 working days from the date of dispatch, please contact us. We would request that you contact us as soon as possible and within 45 days of placing your order. If you contact us outside of this time frame, we are unable to track your order or provide any reimbursement.
Import Duties and Taxes
When ordering goods from our site for delivery overseas you may be subject to additional import duties and taxes, which are levied once the order reaches the specified destination. Any additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you. We have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. If these charges are unpaid, your order may be returned to us, and we will be unable to refund shipping costs.
There may also be costs associated with the return to us, which will be deducted from any refund value. In certain situations, your order may be destroyed by customs if duties and taxes are not paid. In this instance, we cannot refund product or shipping costs for these reasons.
Please be aware that there may be limitations on what can be sent to you with regards to specific items and order value. You may also need to provide specific documentation for clearance of your order, once it arrives in your destination country. This may vary from country to country, and we ask that you contact your local customs office for additional information before placing an order. We cannot refund any shipping costs should your order be returned for any of these reasons.
