KOKOPRIME – Customer Satisfaction Guarantee At KOKOPRIME,
we strive to provide high-quality products and excellent customer service.
If you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, we are here to help with a straightforward refund and return policy.
1. Analysis of the Current Policy
A. Return Period and Holiday Extensions
- Current Practice:
• A standard 30‐day return window is clearly stated.
• Holiday season purchases (Nov 15 – Dec 31) are given an extended return period until January 31. - Observations:
• The dual window is customer friendly.
• It may be beneficial to remind customers that returns received after the deadline may be declined.
B. Eligibility for Returns
- Current Practice:
• Items must be unused, undamaged, and in their original packaging with all accessories/documentation.
• Proof of purchase is required. - Observations:
• The conditions are standard but could be expanded to explicitly note that items not meeting these criteria may be refused. • Consider adding language stating that KOKOPRIME reserves the right to deny any return that does not fully comply with these requirements.
C. Non-Returnable Items
- Current Practice:
• Lists personalized, perishable, custom orders, gift cards, certain health/hygiene items, and clearance/sale items as non-returnable. - Observations:
• This list protects the business by reducing returns on items that cannot be resold. • Clarity on why certain health and hygiene items (e.g., face masks, earrings) are excluded can help manage customer expectations.
D. Refund Process
- Current Practice:
• Refunds are issued to the original payment method within 7–10 business days after inspection.
• Partial refunds may be given if items are not returned in their original condition. - Observations:
• It might be useful to specify that original shipping fees are non-refundable (unless the error is on our part). • More detail on the inspection process can preempt disputes about “original condition.”
E. Return Shipping
- Current Practice:
• UK orders benefit from free return shipping (with a prepaid label provided).
• International customers are responsible for shipping costs. - Observations:
• Consider adding that items must be returned with a valid tracking number and that KOKOPRIME isn’t liable for lost packages without tracking.
F. Exchanges
- Current Practice:
• Free exchanges are offered for defective, damaged, or incorrect items if contacted within 7 days. - Observations:
• Including a clause on product availability for exchanges helps manage expectations. • A brief note on how exchanges are handled if a replacement is unavailable could protect the company.
G. Initiating a Return
- Current Practice:
• Clear instructions are given to contact customer service with an order number, item details, and return reason. - Observations:
• This section is straightforward but could include a reminder that failure to provide complete information may delay the process.
H. Late or Missing Refunds
- Current Practice:
• Customers are advised to check with their bank or credit card company if a refund isn’t received in time. - Observations:
• This guidance is helpful; you might also add that customers should contact customer service if issues persist.
I. Overall Protection and Clarity
- Observations:
• While the current policy is customer-friendly, adding a clause that reserves the right to modify terms or deny returns that don’t meet conditions would strengthen the company’s legal protection.
• An explicit disclaimer regarding non-refundable shipping costs and details on dispute resolution can further protect KOKOPRIME.
