Refund and Returns Policy

By placing an order on kimerachems.io, the customer explicitly agrees to all terms outlined below. These terms constitute the official fulfillment, delivery, and dispute policy governing all transactions.

Order Processing & Shipment Transfer

Orders are processed and transferred to the carrier within 1–2 business days (Monday–Friday, excluding holidays). Delivery timelines are calculated in business days only. Once the carrier scans the shipment, a tracking confirmation email is automatically issued. Delays in tracking activation do not indicate shipment failure. Carrier scan confirmation constitutes proof of shipment and merchant fulfillment.

Shipping Carriers & Responsibility Transfer

We ship exclusively via:

  • USPS
  • UPS
  • FedEx

Once a shipment is scanned and accepted by the carrier:

  • Liability transfers from Kimera Chems to the carrier
  • Kimera Chems has no control over delivery speed, routing, or final delivery outcome
  • Carrier records supersede customer statements regarding delivery status

Delivery Confirmation & Proof

  1. Carrier tracking data, scan records, and delivery confirmation are treated as primary evidence in any delivery-related dispute.
  2. For high-value orders, signature confirmation is used as proof of successful delivery.
  3. Waiving signature confirmation constitutes acceptance of delivery risk by the customer.

Lost or Delayed Shipments

  1. A package is not considered lost until 20 calendar days after carrier pickup.
  2. Customers must contact the carrier directly for delivery investigations.
  3. Insurance claims will not be initiated before the 20-day threshold.

Shipping Insurance Coverage

Shipping insurance is included on all orders. Coverage applies only to:

  • Loss in transit
  • Carrier-verified damage

Theft, misdelivery, or unauthorized receipt are not covered. Packages are reshipped only after insurance claim approval.

Damage Claims (Documentation Required)

To qualify for a damage claim, customers must provide:

  • Photos of:
  • Damaged item
  • Internal packaging
  • External packaging and shipping label

Failure to provide complete documentation will result in claim denial.

Signature Requirement (High-Value Orders)

  1. Orders exceeding $450 require signature confirmation by default.
  2. Customers who request to waive signature confirmation:
  3. Accept full delivery liability
  4. Forfeit eligibility for insurance claims
  5. Waive the right to dispute delivery outcome

Missing Item Claims

Must be reported within 3 days of confirmed delivery. Claims are verified against:

  1. Packing records
  2. Shipment photography
  3. Weight validation

Claims submitted after 3 days are automatically denied.

Product Condition Upon Arrival

Claims regarding product condition must be submitted immediately upon receipt with photo documentation. Kimera Chems may, at its sole discretion:

  • Replace the item
  • Issue store credit
  • Issue a refund

Product return may be required prior to resolution.

Returns, Exchanges & Refunds

All sales are final. Returns and exchanges are not accepted due to contamination and tampering risk. Refunds are issued only in cases of verified fulfillment error or validated quality failure.

Chargebacks & Dispute Policy

Filing a chargeback without first contacting support constitutes bad-faith dispute initiation. Customers who initiate chargebacks:

  • Are permanently banned from future purchases

  • May be reported to payment processors and fraud monitoring services

Kimera Chems reserves the right to submit:

  • Tracking confirmation

Order information may be shared with partner vendors and fraud prevention networks.

Third-Party Testing Policy

  • Performed by an accredited lab
  • Independently verifiable

Yield-based variance disclosed for certain compounds is excluded from refund eligibility.

Evidence Retention & Audit Rights

Kimera Chems retains fulfillment and transaction records including:

  • Packing photos
  • Shipment scans
  • Delivery confirmations
  • Payment metadata

These records are retained for compliance, dispute resolution, and audit purposes.
