We appreciate the opportunity to address the complaint filed by *********************** regarding the delivery of their package to *******.
Upon reviewing the details provided, we understand the frustration experienced due to the delay in delivery. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused by this delay.
As noted in our records and the provided tracking information, the package departed from INTERNATIONAL, *****, ***** on January 29, 2024, and is currently in transit to its destination. We acknowledge that there haven't been further tracking updates since that time, and we recognize the concern this may have raised.
International shipments are subject to various factors that can impact delivery times, including customs processing, transportation delays, and other logistical challenges beyond our control. Despite our best efforts to ensure timely delivery, we must rely on the services of international couriers once the package leaves *****************.
Furthermore, it's important to clarify that international couriers are not obligated to share tracking information with **** after the package has exited the country. This lack of detailed tracking updates beyond the departure from ***************** can contribute to perceived delays and uncertainty for customers.
We have communicated this information to the customer and emphasized that, per our shipping policies clearly stated on our website, we are not liable for delivery delays beyond our control. We understand their frustration and empathize with their situation.
However, we kindly request their patience as we continue to monitor the progress of their package and work with our shipping partners to expedite its delivery.We are committed to ensuring their package reaches its destination as soon as possible.

I am rejecting this response because:I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to request a refund for my December purchase on your online shop, order number #CC-405351, due to a failure in priority shipping.
I made the purchase on December 29, 2023 and paid an additional 116$ shipping cost for priority shipping, which was promised to be delivered within 6-14 business days. It has now been over two months since my purchase and I have yet to receive the items I ordered.
I have reached out to your customer service team several times over the past few weeks and have been assured that my order would be expedited and delivered promptly. However, despite these assurances, the situation has not been resolved and I am left feeling frustrated and disappointed 2 months later.
As a loyal customer, I have always appreciated the quality of your products and the level of service provided. However, this experience has left me with a negative impression and I believe that a refund is warranted given the significant delay in shipping.I would appreciate it if you could process a full refund amount to the original form of payment as soon as possible. I understand that delays can occur, but I believe that this situation warrants compensation.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I hope that we can resolve this issue in a timely manner and that I can continue to be a satisfied customer of your ******************** shop.
Sincerely,Sirine

I placed order 413697 on August 3rd. This is the first and only order I've placed with them. The items came in a timely manner. The sizing was off by quite a bit. I returned one of the items, per their website's instructions, and never heard back. I've emailed them twice, called, and submitted an inquiry via their online form. Now, I don't have an item or a credit. Because of this experience, I can not call them a credible business. An ideal solution for me at this point is to have my money back.Business response
