Quick summary
Damaged, defective, or incorrect orders
We pack every order carefully, but if your shipment arrives with broken vials, a compromised seal, or the wrong item, we'll resolve it quickly. To qualify:
- Notify us within 7 calendar days of the delivery date.
- Include your order number, a description of the issue, and clear photos of the product, packaging, and any damage.
- Keep the item and packaging until the claim is resolved.
Once verified, you may choose a free replacement or a full refund of the affected item, including any shipping you paid on that item.
Unopened, unused returns
If you ordered in error, unopened and unused items in their original, sealed packaging may be returned within 30 days of delivery. To be eligible:
- The vial seal must be intact and unbroken, and the product stored as labeled.
- You request a Return Authorization first (see How to start a claim).
- Return shipping for buyer's-error returns is the customer's responsibility; we recommend a tracked, insured method.
Approved unopened returns are refunded to the original payment method, less any original outbound shipping, once we receive and inspect the item.
Non-returnable items
For the safety, integrity, and traceability of research materials, the following cannot be returned or refunded once they leave our facility, except in the damaged/defective/incorrect cases above:
- Opened, used, or unsealed vials;
- Products stored outside their labeled conditions or whose cold chain may have been broken after delivery;
- Items returned without a Return Authorization or after the 30-day window.
Refunds & timing
Approved refunds are issued to your original payment method. Please allow 5–10 business days after we approve the refund for it to appear, depending on your bank or card issuer. We'll email you when the refund is processed.
Subscription orders
You can cancel or reschedule a subscription at any time before its next renewal, and that prevents future charges. An order that has already been processed or shipped follows the standard policy above. See the Terms for full subscription details.
