   Shipping and handling

   Note as from 01/09/2006 there is a slight adjustment in US Inland shipping charge to level with the recent USPS
.  and UPS increases as follows :

.  Order from  $  0.01 - $9.99       fixed $  5.00
.  Order from  $10.00 - $49.99     fixed $  8.00
.  Order from  $50.00 - $99.00     fixed $10.00
.  Order from  $100.00  up            free by normal ground shipping method.
.  Oversea order customers pay the net shipping cost of choice, no handling charges.

1. For US customers only : the fixed minimum shipping and handling charges per order is non-refundable conditional
.   (see #2 below), by regular mail.  We shall pay the shipping cost for replacements by regular mail should you receive       wrong or defective items.
2. Certain heavy articles like liquid formulas which have weight-over-value criteria, in this case customers
    are to pay for the net shipping charge of the order with no additional handling charges.
3. All merchadise will normally be shipped by regular mail. We can ship them by UPS, Federal Express
    or Priority mail, customers are responsible for only the NET additional shipping cost.
4. Overseas orders (away from US mainland) : Customers pay for the net shipping charge whichever shipping
    method is chosen by customers with no additional handling charges. We can only provide the actual charge by
    email to customers after we receive the order as we have to do our calculations per order. We process the order
    only after we receive the additional shipping charge from overseas orders. Customers can also send us an
    email of intent before actually placing an order so that we can calculate the shipping charge.
5. We keep track of oversea orders to as far as the US pickup points and we have no control of the merchandise
    once it reaches many oversea countries. Customers are hereby advised to be aware of the situations and the risks
     because this is situation beyond our control and we cannot guarantee delivery in these certain countries. Many 
   central and south American countries in particular are in this category of high risk when merchandise are sent by
     regular post office mail.  UPS and some special agencies offer secured delivery at higher cost which customers
     have to specify when order and pay for the net shipping charge. Customers can ask for insurance coverage                      if necessary.

    Terms and conditions
1.  Returns are acceptable within 14 days of  receipt with prior notification to us and authorization from us
     and merchadise have to be in original condition. Open items, with the exceptions of damages in shipping,
     are not acceptable.
2.  Customers have to provide a working phone number or email address so that we can contact you in the
     event that there is a foreseeing delay beyond our control or when there is a variation of the goods you order.
     In the event that we cannot reach you by phone/email in but not less than 24 hours, we reserve the right to
     ship similar/equivalent product of the same or higher value at no extra cost to you. In this case customers
     have the right to return the merchandise for a full refund less the shipping charge.(see 1. above)       We
     may put your order in PENDING until you contact us upto but not more than 30 days, then we accept no
     more responsibilities/obligations.
