1. Order Processing
-
We endeavour to process all orders within 1–3 business days after payment confirmation.
-
Once your order is processed and shipped, you will receive a tracking number via email so you can monitor your package.
-
Business days exclude weekends and US national holidays.
2. Shipping Destinations & Restrictions
-
We currently ship only to customers within the United States of America.
-
Orders sent to PO boxes, APO/FPO addresses or other non‑physical residence addresses may be subject to delivery limitations or ineligibility.
-
If you attempt to place an order from a country outside the US, the checkout will prevent completion (or the order will be cancelled).
3. Shipping Methods, Costs & Estimated Delivery Times
-
Shipping costs are calculated at checkout based on the item weight, dimensions and destination.
-
The tables below show our typical delivery estimates (after processing):
| Shipping Option | Estimated Delivery* |
|---|---|
| Standard Shipping | 5–12 business days |
| Expedited / Express Shipping | 2–5 business days |
*Estimated times apply after the order has shipped and tracking is available. Delivery times may vary due to carrier delays, product availability or peak season conditions.
-
We aim for the fastest warehouse dispatch and fulfilment possible.
-
Please note: shipping times are estimates, not guarantees. Delays may occur beyond our (or our fulfilment partner’s) control.
4. Tracking & Delivery
-
A tracking number will be provided via email once your order has shipped.
-
Please allow 24–48 hours for tracking updates to appear.
-
If your tracking shows “delivered” but you have not received the package, please contact us at info@ghipets.com with your order number and we will investigate promptly.
5. Import Duties, Taxes & Customs
-
For US shipments, customs import related charges are generally not applicable.
-
If you are shipping to a US territory, remote area or non‑standard address, there may be additional handling fees or delivery delays—please contact us in advance for clarification.
6. Shipping Delays & Lost Packages
-
In the event of a delay beyond reasonable expectation, we will work to locate your package or initiate a claim with the carrier.
-
Claims for lost packages must be submitted within 30 days from shipping date.
-
For packages returned to sender due to incorrect address or failed delivery attempts, shipping costs and return fees may be deducted from any refund or credit.
7. Order Address Changes & Cancellations
-
If you need to modify your shipping address, please contact us before the order is processed. Once the order is marked as “shipped,” no address changes can be made.
-
Orders cancelled after processing may not be eligible for full refund and may incur restocking/shipping fee deductions.
8. Product Availability
