3. Shipping Methods & Estimated Delivery Time

We partner with reliable international couriers and logistics providers, including DHL, FedEx, UPS, USPS, EU standard postal services, and sea freight carriers for bulk orders.

3.2 Sea Freight (Wholesale & Bulk Orders)

Delivery timelines vary by destination, shipping route, and port congestion, and will be confirmed in writing with the customer before shipment.

Delivery may be delayed due to customs clearance, local postal delays, weather, port congestion, or other force majeure events. Lingdeer is not liable for delays caused by third-party carriers or local government policies.

4. Shipping Costs

• Retail orders: Shipping fees are calculated automatically at checkout based on order weight, dimensions, destination, and selected courier. All costs are clearly displayed before payment with no hidden fees.
• Wholesale & bulk orders: Shipping costs (including sea freight) are quoted separately by our sales team based on order volume, destination, and shipping method.

We may offer free shipping promotions under specific conditions, with terms clearly marked on product or checkout pages.

Original shipping fees are non-refundable for returns due to personal reasons, in line with our Warranty & Return Policy. Fees are refunded only for errors caused by Lingdeer (wrong item, defective goods, etc.).

5. Order Tracking

Once your order is shipped, we will send a confirmation email with a tracking number and link to your registered email address.

• Standard courier orders: Track real-time status via the carrier’s official website or your Lingdeer account.
• Sea freight bulk orders: We provide shipment updates and estimated arrival times upon request.

Tracking information may take 2–3 business days to update in the carrier’s system.

6. Customs Duties, Taxes & Import Fees

All import duties, VAT, customs fees, brokerage charges, and other cross-border fees are the sole responsibility of the buyer and determined by the destination country’s customs policies.

Lingdeer does not prepay, bear, or reimburse any customs-related charges. Failure to pay fees may result in package delay, return, or abandonment, for which Lingdeer is not liable.

7. Lost, Damaged or Missing Packages

• Lost packages: Contact us within 7 business days of the expected delivery date with your order number and tracking info. We will investigate with the carrier and offer a resolution including reshipment or full refund.
• Damaged or missing items: Notify us within 3 business days of delivery with clear photos/videos of the package and products. We will verify and provide a solution including replacement, partial refund, or full refund.

• Warranty claims after 30 days: Buyer pays return shipping; Lingdeer covers replacement reshipment.

All returns require a valid RMA number; unauthorized returns will be rejected.
