Damages and problems
Please inspect your order upon receipt and contact us immediately if the item is defective, damaged, or if you have received the wrong item, so that we can assess the problem and resolve it.

Exceptions or non-returnable items
Some types of items cannot be returned, such as perishable products like food. Coffee purchased on our website can only be exchanged if there is a valid reason (e.g., receipt of a perishable product that is expired, damage to the product threatening its integrity, or receipt of the wrong product), within 30 days after purchase.

Unfortunately, we do not accept returns of promotional items or gift cards.

Exchanges
The fastest way to ensure you get what you want is to return the item you have and, once the return is accepted, make a separate purchase for a new item.

Refunds
We will inform you as soon as we have received and inspected your return, and we will let you know whether the refund has been approved or not. If the refund is approved, you will be automatically refunded to your original payment method within 10 business days. Please note that the processing and posting of the refund by your bank or credit card company may take some time.
If more than 15 business days have passed since the approval of your return, please contact us at info@cafenapoleon.com.
