What if my package is lost, stolen, or damaged?

We offer shipping insurance through Package Protection for potential shipping issues. Package Protection will cover lost or damaged packages.* If you choose not to use Package Protection to insure your order, 1st Detachment Nutrition is not responsible for any lost or damaged packages. The customer assumes all responsibility for any loss, theft, or damage of these items.

If you have purchased Package Protection, please note the claim deadlines below for lost or damaged packages.

 

Ensure you report an issue within the respective deadlines:

Damaged: Within 3 days of when the package was marked delivered.*

Lost (domestic): 20 days from the last tracking update.*

Lost (international): 30 days from the last tracking update.*

*Package Protection requires these wait-to-file periods for lost orders as packages are sometimes delayed in transit or prematurely marked as delivered. 

Please be aware that stolen packages are not covered under Package Protection insurance. Hosstile is not responsible for stolen packages, where a package has been marked as delivered by the carrier.

Please contact customer service to file a claim for lost or damaged packages.

INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMS

Are all 1st Detachment Nutrition products offered available for international shipping?

1st Detachment Nutrition works to ensure that all products offered for each country are compliant with the import regulations for the countries we ship our products. However, it is ultimately your responsibility to know the import regulations for your country. Please research all supplements to ensure that they are legal for importation before ordering. Once the order has left our premises, we cannot be held responsible for any potential customs delays or items denied clearance.

Will I have to pay duties or import fees?

For international orders, additional fees may apply upon importing products into your country. These fees are determined by customs. Any additional fees upon import are the responsibility of the customer. 

In the event that the import fees are not paid by the customer and the package is returned to us, we will issue a refund only after we have received the goods back. The refund will be calculated as the Total Cost less shipping, discounts/promotions, and a 25% restocking fee for a total of an 75% refund not including shipping or Package Protection insurance. Shipping and Package Protection fees are non-refundable. Please note that we do not have a reship policy.

What do I do if my order is denied clearance into my country?

Most countries will clear shipments without issue, but in the off chance a package is denied clearance, and you wish to have a refund, then we will only do so only after we have received the goods back from customs, undamaged and in their original packaging.

 

We strongly advise that you attempt to have the items returned to us and we will review the product to determine if it qualifies for a refund. If it is approved, the refund will be calculated as the Total Cost less shipping and Package
Protection insurance, discounts/promotions, and a 25% restocking fee for a total of an 75% refund not including shipping or Package Protection insurance. Please note that we do not have a reship policy.

If customs does not return the products to us, we cannot issue the refund amount to you.

 

Please note that we do not have a reship policy. It is your responsibility to know the import regulations for your country, and therefore you are responsible for dealing with any customs issues in your country.
