Refunds Policy
In the event we are not able to provide you with a replacement, for reasons including but not limited to season-ending, not enough production, lack of service of courier, etc, we will issue you refunds for the amount you have paid us. The refunds will be issued into your wallet on our portal, and you can use that money to make further purchases. We are not in a position to issue refunds in money. Please keep this in mind while placing your order!
Exceptions
You are aware that the mangoes that we send to you are sent by third party courier companies and they are the best in their work, Fedex for instance, which we use. You are aware that when we dispatch mangoes to you, they go out of our control. You understand that they should reach you as soon as possible for them to remain their best. We send you a ‘shipped’ update to as soon as they are taken over by the courier company and it is your responsibility to ensure that you or someone will be there at the given address to receive the box. This replacement and refunds will not hold good in the case that they have reached your city, but the delivery to you is delayed because you were unavailable, did not answer the call, or requested a later date for delivery. You understand that mangoes are perishables and delaying delivery is likely to hasten their perishability. Hence, we will not be liable to give any replacement or refund in such a case when the status checks with the courier company shows that later delivery was requested. As explained above, mangoes have a very short shelf life, and should be consumed in that time frame. We are not liable for any requests for refunds and replacements, after the end of shelf life.
