We offer varying lengths of warranties on products, and each product page will clearly mark the length of warranty for that item. All postage costs for returning items to us are the responsibility of the customer. Items found to be faulty within the declared warranty period will be replaced once we have been notified of the problem via email. Items sent back to us without prior notification will result in a delay of processing or no processing.
All parts covered under a warranty period may be repaired/replaced once they have been shipped back to us at the purchasers expense. This warranty starts at the time the order is placed, and is to cover items from early failure. All items found to be damaged from misuse will not be covered under the warranty, and may be returned to the customer at their own expense.

We do not process orders on Saturdays, Sundays, or any major/postal holidays.
Shipping Policy
We ship worldwide via USPS priority mail, first class mail, international mail, or express mail. All first class and priority packages inside the US ship with delivery confirmation. This is not a tracking number. USPS may update the location at times, but is not required to do so. Express Mail is the only shipping option that carries a real tracking number, and is available upon request for certain countries. First class and priority international are not trackable and do not have delivery confirmation. Express mail international is the only trackable shipping method for outside the US. (Please allow enough time for the items to get to your country, and clear customs before contacting us about a missing package.) International first class shipping can take longer than a month, and International priority mail may take 2-3 weeks.
We have no control over packages once they are turned over to USPS, and we are not responsible for lost, held, or damaged packages. We can not guaranty delivery on any package, and we are not responsible for mis-delivery errors via carrier, or incorrect shipping info. Shipping is a service you purchase with your order from USPS, so any shipping issues must be handled by USPS. Insurance & Signature Confirmation is available to add to any order, and is recommended for all orders.
Duties, Taxes, Vat, or any other fees for international orders are solely the responsibility of the customer.
Insurance – Insurance claims are typically paid out within 7-10 business days from Stamps.com. If you do not add insurance to your order we cannot help you recover the cost of the package, or reship the order. If you added insurance to your order, a claim will be filed, and if approved will be paid by Stamps.com for the amount of the declared value of the items less postage & insurance fees. Once the refund is received the customer may choose to have the funds returned, or the original order replaced & re-shipped. In any event, Sweet-Vapes is not responsible for losses, or damages during shipment. All claims must be handled by USPS or Stamps.com.
Insurance claims for lost packages may only be submitted 30 days after the shipment date, while claims for damaged packages may be submitted within 180 days of the shipment date.
Warning: Any fraudulent claims will make the package recipient liable for prosecution for mail fraud under the Federal Criminal Code.
