Overview

At auradrop, your satisfaction guides everything we do. We take pride in the freshness of our grocery selections and the quality of our kitchenware, and we want you to shop with complete confidence. When something falls short of your expectations, our return and refund process is designed to be straightforward, honest, and fair from start to finish.

Return Window

• Non-Perishable Grocery & Kitchenware: You may return these items within 30 days of the delivery date. To qualify, merchandise must be unused, unopened, and in its original resalable condition — with all original tags attached and the original packaging entirely intact.
• Perishable Items: For reasons of food safety, quality control, and public health regulations, perishable goods (including fresh produce, dairy, frozen items, prepared foods, and other short-shelf-life products) cannot be sent back to us. However, if a perishable item reaches you damaged, spoiled, expired, or otherwise compromised in transit, you qualify for an immediate full refund or a free replacement (a clear photo confirming the issue is required within 48 hours of delivery).

Non-Returnable Items

The items listed below cannot be returned under any circumstances:

• Merchandise marked "Final Sale" at the time of checkout;
• Goods that have been opened, used, or partially consumed (unless they arrived defective or spoiled);
• Digital download codes, e-gift cards, and physical gift cards;
• Products damaged through improper storage, mishandling, or failure to follow the care instructions on the customer's part;
• Return requests submitted after the 30-day window without prior written approval from auradrop.

How to Initiate a Return

1. Submit a Request: Send an email to our customer support team at [email protected] including your Order Number, the item(s) you would like to return, and the reason for the return. If the item arrived damaged or spoiled, please attach clear photographs of the product and its packaging.
2. Receive RMA & Instructions: Our team will review your submission and, within 1 business day, provide a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number together with step-by-step return shipping instructions.
3. Pack Securely: Place the item(s) in protective packaging. Clearly write your RMA number on the outside of the shipping box — never directly on the original product packaging.
4. Ship Back: Send the package using a trackable shipping service to the return address included in your RMA email.

Note: Packages that arrive without a valid, pre-approved RMA number may face significant processing delays or be declined upon receipt.

Refund Processing & Timelines

• Inspection & Processing: After your return reaches our facility, we will inspect it within 1–2 business days.
• Refund Credit: Once approved, your refund will be issued to your original payment method within 3–5 business days.
• Posting Time: Your bank or card issuer may require an additional 3–10 business days before the refunded amount appears on your statement.
• Shipping Cost Refunds: Original shipping charges are not refundable unless the return results from a auradrop error (for example, a damaged item or an incorrect item shipped).

Damaged, Defective, or Incorrect Items

If your order arrives damaged, incomplete, incorrect, or with spoiled perishables, please let us know right away:

• Perishable Items: Reach out within 48 hours of delivery.
• Non-Perishable Items: Reach out within 7 days of delivery.

Kindly include clear photos of the affected items and the shipping package. We will promptly issue a full refund or send a free replacement at no additional cost to you.
