Sterye Shipping & Processing Policy

---

1. Processing Times

At Sterye, every box is carefully hand-packaged by our small team to ensure quality and attention to detail.

• Processing times typically take 1–3 business days from the date of purchase. However, during high-volume periods or collection releases, processing may take up to 7 days.
• During busy periods, we aim to have pre-packaged boxes ready to reduce delays. Unless otherwise noted, your order should be shipped within 7 days of purchase.

Sterye Refund Policy

1. RETURNS AND REFUNDS OVERVIEW

At Sterye, we are committed to delivering high-quality products and a seamless shopping experience. Due to the nature of our products, we have specific guidelines for returns and refunds to ensure fairness and clarity for both you and our business:

• Mystery Boxes are sold as a surprise experience, and all sales are considered final unless the item is damaged or defective upon delivery.
• Non-mystery box products may be eligible for a return or refund under certain conditions outlined below.

---

2. MYSTERY BOX POLICY

Due to the nature of mystery boxes:

• All sales are final for mystery boxes unless an item arrives damaged or defective.
• Mystery box contents can be curated and selected at random. Dissatisfaction with the contents (e.g., theme or duplicate items) does not qualify for a refund or exchange.
• Partial refunds or exchanges of individual items within the mystery box are not permitted.
• In the event that a listed product is unavailable at the time of packing, we reserve the right to substitute it with an item of equal or greater value. Substitutions will be consistent with the box's theme and value. We are not responsible for minor variations in color, style, or design.

3. RETURN ELIGIBILITY FOR NON-MYSTERY BOX PRODUCTS

We accept returns for non-mystery box products under the following conditions:
