Order Cancellations
Once an order has been placed, it is considered final and cannot be cancelled.
Damaged or Defective Items
We will assist customers who receive an item that is damaged during delivery or has a confirmed manufacturing defect.
You must contact us within three calendar days of the item being marked as delivered by the shipping carrier.
Claims submitted after this period may not be accepted, except where otherwise required by applicable law.
To submit a claim, email support@3dio.world and include:
-
Your full name
-
Your order number
-
A clear description of the damage or defect
-
Clear photographs showing the affected item
-
Clear photographs of the external and internal packaging
-
A continuous unboxing video showing the unopened parcel, the opening of the packaging and the condition of the item when first removed
Please retain the item and all original packaging until the claim has been fully reviewed.
Submitting a claim does not automatically guarantee a replacement or refund. We may request additional information, photographs or videos where reasonably necessary to assess the issue.
Replacement-First Resolution
For an approved damaged or defective item claim, our first resolution will be to provide a replacement.
3DIO World will cover the reasonable shipping cost of sending the approved replacement to the original delivery address.
Where the same item is unavailable or a replacement cannot reasonably be provided, we may offer an alternative replacement, store credit or a refund, subject to the customer’s applicable legal rights.
Refunds for Damaged or Defective Items
A refund may be issued when:
-
A replacement is unavailable;
-
A replacement cannot reasonably be provided; or
-
We determine that a refund is the appropriate resolution.
An approved refund will include the amount paid for the affected item and the applicable original delivery fee charged for that item or order.
Refunds will generally be issued to the original payment method. Processing times after a refund has been approved may vary depending on the payment provider or financial institution.
Returning a Damaged or Defective Item
Do not return an item unless instructed to do so by 3DIO World.
In some cases, we may require the damaged or defective item to be returned before a replacement or refund is issued. Where we request the return, we will provide the relevant return instructions and cover the approved return shipping cost.
Items returned without prior written authorisation may not be accepted or processed.
