Shipping & Delivery Policies
Carrier Rules and Regulations - We ship per each carrier’s rules and regulations and are bound to their policies. Once the package has been handed to the shipping carrier that liability of the package no longer lies with Gift Basket Bounty nor are we liable for lost or stolen merchandise. Gift Basket Bounty has no control over a carrier’s actual delivery time or their decision if your location is considered "safe" to leave a package. If a delivery attempt has been made, the carrier will leave a notice which the recipient must follow. Gift Basket Bounty will not refund or reship any package that has been marked as "Delivered" by the carrier even if recipient claims non-receipt. We suggest that the recipient contact the delivering carrier to verify where parcel was placed. If a package is returned for any reason without prior return authorization, no refund will be issued.

Disclaimer
With the volume that any shipping carrier delivers on any given day throughout the world, there are some packages that simply do not reach their destination within the time-frame expected. It is very unfortunate when this happens however, we cannot provide a financial guarantee on another company’s performance. We trust you will understand.
