Policy Restrictions
Damages must be reported within 7 days to receive a refund or exchange.
Returns after 7 days cannot be accepted.
Custom, promotion, pre-order, subscription, discount, clearance, and sale items are final sale only and cannot be returned, refunded, or exchanged, unless defective.
Refunds will be issued for the full product purchase price, excluding shipping.
All shipping charges become the sole responsibility of the customer.
Any refused or non-deliverable packages will be canceled upon receipt and will be subject to a return-shipping fee by the carrier. This fee will be deducted from the refund amount for the products.
Original shipping is non-refundable.
Bulk orders may be subject to a 25% restocking fee.
We are not able to honor requests for store credits.
Returned items must be in their original, undamaged packaging, and refunds will be issued only for the unused portion of the product returned.

Ardor Grove Botanicals only ships to final destinations located in the US and Canada. If you are using a freight forwarder to ship overseas or to Mexico, you (or the freight forwarder that you so designate) become the exporter of the goods. Ardor Grove will not be responsible for damage or loss that occurs to goods after they are received and shipped by the freight forwarder. This means that Ardor Grove will not be able to provide a replacement or refund for any goods delivered to a freight forwarder, nor will we be able to address any issues with quality concerns once the package has left the country.
Please do not return products that do not meet the return criteria listed above, as we will not be able to issue refunds for non-qualifying items and cannot return the items to you.
