SECTION 6 - SHIPPING

Your purchase is subject to our shipping terms located at this web address: https://www.monostarscope.com

GENERAL INFORMATION

To ensure that your order(s) are properly delivered, please make sure that your address is correctly entered and includes all relevant and/or required information. The use of correct abbreviations, street numbers, building or apartment numbers, and route information (if applicable) is critical for ensuring timely delivery. We do not take responsibility for lost, misplaced, or incorrectly delivered shipments if the address information provided is incorrect or incorrectly entered at the time of purchase.

FEES/CHARGES/TAXES

Shipping fees and associated costs (Shipping Charges), and risks are the sole responsibility of the customer and are all for your account. You may be charged USD/EUR/GBP 8.95 for Shipping Charges but actual Shipping Charges may be higher depending on your location and other factors. Shipping Charges for your order will be calculated and displayed at checkout. We also offer Free Shipping on certain promotional offers, which will be clearly and expressly indicated during the checkout process. All shipping costs are non-refundable unless otherwise provided by applicable law.

We are not responsible for any customs clearance charges, duties, or taxes applied to your order. All fees imposed during or after shipping are for your sole responsibility (e.g., tariffs, taxes, VAT, etc.). If any clearance charges, duties, or taxes remain due and collectible, you hereby authorize us to charge the amount due to the credit card that you have on file or to collect the same via the same payment method used for your order. We are not liable for any products damaged or lost during shipping and delivery. If you received your order damaged, please contact the shipment carrier to file a claim. Please save all packaging materials and damaged goods before filing a claim.

SHIPPING

We ship available items out as soon as possible, but this will not always be the same day as your order. All orders are subject to processing time that is separate and apart from the time it takes for a shipment to reach its destination once it has been picked up from our fulfillment center by the applicable carrier. Depending on a number of factors, standard domestic and international orders may take up to 3-7 business days (excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and Holidays) to process.

Generally, shipping may take three (3) business days to forty (40) business days from receipt of your properly completed order (excluding applicable processing time). Shipping of International order(s) and those for other U.S. Territories may take longer. In all cases, shipping dates may be extended, such as, when there is a surge in delivery volume especially during peak seasons or when due to unforeseen factors outside of our control (e.g., local delivery partners delays, strikes, unusual weather, pandemic-related delays, etc.). Thus, while we try to ship out your order on time, due to unforeseen circumstances, it is possible that actual delivery by our local delivery partners may take longer than expected. When your order has been shipped, you will receive an email with tracking information. We will provide tracking numbers for all purchases upon shipment.

SHIPPING DELAY NOTICE (FOR US RESIDENTS)

If we are unable to ship out your order(s) within 40 days from receipt of your properly completed order (excluding applicable processing time), we will reach out to you via a Delay Notice to inform you of the unanticipated delay and a revised shipment date of up to 30 days (“Original Extended Period”). Upon receipt of the Delay Notice, you may a) Agree to the delay, by confirming your consent or by not acting on the Notice; or b) Cancel your order, by notifying us through email, phone call, or timely written notice, before we ship your order.

FURTHER SHIPPING DELAY NOTICE (US RESIDENTS ONLY)

If we are still unable to ship out your order(s) within the aforesaid Original Extended Period, we will reach out to you via a Further Delay Notice before the end of the said Original Extended Period to inform you of the further delay and a renewed revised shipment date of up to 30 days from the expiration of the Original Extended Period (Second Extended Period). Upon receipt of the Further Delay Notice, you may agree to the delay, by notifying us through email, phone call, or timely written notice. If we do not hear from you and we have not shipped by the Original Extended Period, your order is automatically cancelled.

REFUND (US RESIDENTS ONLY)

In all cases of cancellation due to delay in shipping as stated above, you will receive a refund.

DELIVERY

Excluding products which are pre-ordered, the estimated delivery time is sixty (60) business days and delivery delays can occasionally occur. Products which are pre-ordered will clearly display the estimated delivery date on the checkout form and order confirmation page.

Pre-ordered products will be delivered to you on or around the estimated date specified in the Checkout page. Although we will make efforts to begin shipping products as soon as reasonably practicable, you understand and agree that there may be delays. An estimated time of shipment or delivery is only an estimate and is subject to change. Delivery time is only a general estimate from our local delivery partners, over which we have no control and can be delayed by unforeseen circumstances. We do not represent or warrant that we will be able to ship or our local delivery partner will be able to deliver the product by the estimated date. As a result, in the event that a delay arises and the estimated shipment or delivery date is not met, we are not responsible for any damages that may occur due to the delay, nor shall we be obligated, except as set forth in these Terms or except as provided by law, to provide any discounts, refunds or credits due to any such delays. We will provide you updates with respect to such shipment or delivery schedules.

DELIVERY CLAIMS

We reserve the right and discretion to reject claims after that time frame.

Approved returns may be refunded, exchanged or issued store credit equivalent to the purchase price. If you need to exchange your purchase for the same item or you want to request for a refund or store credit, send us an email at https://support.shopstarscope.com. Approved refund will be issued to the same payment method used for the order. For orders made by credit card, the amount to be refunded will be visible on the next bank statement of the card. The time of processing may vary depending on the issuing company of the credit card, this time generally takes up to 45 working days. Refund of orders made by bank transfer will be completed on the original bank account within 48 hours from issuance of credit note and only after receiving the bank details from customers. Refund is made on the same currency of the original order. Possible difference in the refunded amount may depend on variations of the currency exchange rate and will not be refunded. We prioritize and endeavor to refund via your original form of payment. However, if we are unable to issue a refund due to unavoidable exceptional circumstances, we will issue store credit.
