We strive to ship all plant orders within 48 hours of order placement. USPS Priority Mail takes from 1-4 days to arrive, depending on your location. Average delivery time is 2-3 days from date of shipment to most locations in the continental U.S. However, our 48 hour shipping policy may be altered depending on availability of stock, order volume or weather conditions which may adversely affect live goods in transit. Non-perishable goods such as lighting supplies, terrarium construction supplies, or custom built terrarium components may take 7-10 days to ship.

We do our best to post messages regarding any shipping policy exception on the homepage of petflytrap.com. However, rest assured that when your order is pulled for shipping, you will receive an email from PetFlyTrap.com that the order is being shipped, followed by another email from the US Postal Service (www.usps.com) notifying you that the package has been shipped, including any tracking number based on the service selected.

What is your refund policy? (back to top)

Refunds are offered if an order has been placed and not yet shipped. If an order has shipped, the package MUST be returned unopened (refused by customer) in order to receive a refund (less shipping fees).

If a customer receives their shipment and is not satisfied, we make every effort to correct the issue. If a refund is requested, we may elect to have the order returned in full in order to process a refund.

What are your guarantees? (back to top)

We make every effort to deliver the HIGHEST quality products to our customers. We guarantee that our plants arrive alive and the products are as described. If a plant arrives dead or destroyed due to shipping, we will promptly replace the item with an exact replacement or comparable item when the exact replacement is unavailable. We must be notified WITHIN 48 HOURS OF RECEIPT for replacement.

Unfortunately, due to many variables, we cannot guarantee any live plant beyond the point it reaches the customer.

In some cases, the customer may be asked to return items they are not satisfied with

We expect our customers to KNOW their own address and make sure their order is being delivered to an address with a valid mail receptacle, and to pick up their package when it arrives.

If a package is returned, and the customer requests redelivery, the fees for shipping will be charged to the customer for the second delivery attempt.

If a customer requests a refund due to a package being returned, we will refund the amount of products less shipping fees.
