You are responsible for any fees your issuing bank or card provider may charge.

To help us ship promptly, address updates should be made before we generate a shipping label; changes made after that point may not apply to the current shipment. Our shipping services do not include mail forwarding; any forwarding fees are your responsibility. Amounts paid for food items are generally final and non-refundable except where required by law or where an item is defective or incorrect (see Section 4).

 

Section 4 – One-Time Purchases

 

One-Time Purchases. Unless expressly stated otherwise, products are sold as a one-time purchase; no automatic renewal applies.

 

Order Acceptance. Your order is an offer to buy. We may accept or reject any order. We accept when we send a shipping confirmation (not when you receive an order confirmation). We may cancel any order for reasons including pricing or stock errors, suspected fraud, or inability to fulfill.

 

Pricing Errors. If a product is listed with an incorrect price or information due to typographical or supplier error, we may refuse or cancel orders placed at the incorrect price. If your card was charged, we will promptly issue a credit for the charged amount.

 

Returns & Refunds for Food. Due to the nature of food items, all sales are final except where required by law or where an item is defective or incorrect. For defective or incorrect items, contact us within 7 days of delivery with photos; remedies may include replacement or refund at our discretion. (EU/UK consumers: see the Regional Addendum regarding withdrawal rights and exceptions for perishable or unsealed goods.)

Section 5 – Shipping

Insurance. Trackable shipments include carrier insurance per the carrier’s terms. Insurance generally covers loss or physical damage in transit; delays or temperature-related quality changes are typically not covered. Where appropriate, we may add optional insurance.

If Something Goes Wrong (How to Claim). If your items is lost, arrives damaged, or items are missing, contact us within 7 days of delivery (or expected delivery for loss). We will: (1) investigate and liaise with the carrier; (2) request reasonable evidence (e.g., photos of the outer box, inner packing, items, and label; order number); and (3) if the claim is approved by the carrier or otherwise at our discretion, we will replace the items or issue a refund.

Examples (non-exhaustive). Subject to the carrier’s decision and these Terms, claims may include, for example, (i) theft acknowledged by the carrier, (ii) damage caused by natural disasters (e.g., fire, flood, hurricane), or (iii) mishandling by the carrier.

Exclusions. Shipments refused by the recipient or sent to an incorrect address provided by the customer are not eligible for replacement or refund. Customs inspections or delays are outside our control.

Risk of Loss & Title. Subject to applicable consumer law, risk of loss and title to the products pass to you when we hand the goods to the carrier; where local law requires delivery to you (e.g., certain EU/UK consumer rules), risk and title pass upon delivery to you.

Section 6 – Allergen Information

 

We do provide information regarding allergens as required under Japanese Law in the insert for the “Moncha Boxes”. However, while we do our best to provide accurate information about common allergens, the list is not comprehensive and we cannot guarantee that every item is allergen-free in all Moncha Boxes.
