You will receive a unique tracking identity number once the purchased product is handed over to the Logistics Partner, which will enable you in tracking the status of delivery of the purchased products. Given that we engage third party service providers to effectuate deliveries of the products, we do not guarantee the accuracy or correctness of the tracking status and the status may be subject to inconsistencies arising out of time-lags in updating the information and/ or other technical difficulties which are not in our control.
