• Why I’m not able to track my order?
  

  Please note that tracking information will be displayed 8-10 business days after being updated due to Customs. If a tracking number is not searchable after this period of time, there are several possible causes:
  The shipping company has not yet updated the most recent delivery information on their website; the tracking code is wrong; the parcel has been delivered a long time ago and the shipping company has removed it from the tracking code history.
  We suggest you can contact our Customer Service in those situations and we will provide you with your tracking number. We will contact the delivery company on your behalf and you will be informed once there is further information.

   Please kindly note the international shipping takes time, for China Post it usually takes about 3-5 weeks and 1-3 weeks by ePacket. It may don't have any updates on the internet, but actually, your package is still on the move, just be patient and track your package a few days later.

  Please contact the courier. Usually, they will resent your package on the next working day, but sometimes they just ask you to pick up your package at their office.

  We do our best to reduce costs on your end so that you do not have to pay high taxes/premiums to get your items! If you ordered multiple items from us, it is highly likely that the goods will be shipped in several packages.  Please allow some time for all of your items to arrive.
