Return & Refund Policy

There are no returns, exchanges, or refunds for all grocery items and books.  Moreover, food safety policy prohibits the return of any and all grocery items.  This policy protects the health and safety of our customers.  If you have any questions about this policy, please feel free to contact us.

In the interest of your food safety, no returns, no refunds or exchanges are permitted or accepted by Seller. These return and refund policies have been established for your food safety in order to ensure the highest quality, best pricing, and that you are receiving the freshest product and not someone else’s return. As with all natural products, there may be batch to batch taste profile differences. If any items are found to be defective, those defective items must be returned directly to the manufacturer for evaluation.  Upon any finding of manufacturer defect by the manufacturer, any refund, exchange, or reimbursement for shipping costs will be at the manufacturer’s discretion.

Cancelling orders – only orders that have not left our facility by the time we receive and verify your cancellation request may be cancelled.

Refunds are only available if an item did not arrive, was defective, Buyer received an item not ordered, item was damaged during shipment, or manufacturer defect exists. It is Buyer’s responsibility to provide evidence that a refund is due and Buyer, at its own expense, must return item to Seller, or in the case of a defect, to the manufacturer within 72 hours of receipt of the item. Seller will use best efforts to investigate all claims, including interviews with third parties involved with the claim, such as the courier responsible for the shipment. Seller reserves the right to request additional information from the Buyer. If Buyer fails to provide the requested information within 72 hours, Buyer’s claim will immediately be closed and no refund provided. Seller has 30 days to complete its investigation.   If, after investigation, Seller finds that Buyer’s claim does not have merit or that Seller is not at fault, Seller will contact Buyer and close the claim with no refund due. If, after investigation, Seller finds that Buyer’s claim does have merit, Seller will contact buyer by phone or e-mail to reach a reasonable resolution that may include sending a replacement item, providing a partial refund or a full refund and reimburse the return shipping costs, if any. Seller’s decision is final and binding

Taxes:

State sales tax will be applied to orders shipped in Virginia.

 

Shipping:

Items are shipped via US Postal Service, Fed-Ex, or UPS. Unless noted otherwise in the ordering pipeline, all items ship within two days of receiving your order. You will receive notification of any delay or cancellation of your order. Virginia Gourmet will not be responsible for any product or shipment once it leaves our Williamsburg, VA facility. By placing your order, you acknowledge that Virginia Gourmet will use a third-party courier to deliver your items to you.  Virginia Gourmet will not be responsible for the shipment once it is placed in the courier’s care. All of the shipment tracking information will be provided to you.  Thank you for your patronage and we look forward to receiving your order.
