2. Pre-Purchase & Product Care

Are your products eco-friendly? Yes. Our apparel is printed using modern, sustainable ink technologies that are water-based and non-toxic. We aim to reduce waste by using a Made-to-Order (Print-on-Demand) model, meaning we only produce what you buy.

What is the fabric quality of your apparel? We use premium, pre-shrunk cotton or cotton-poly blends for our T-shirts, Hoodies, and Sweatshirts to ensure comfort and durability. Detailed material compositions are available on each product page and in our Size Guide.

How should I wash my Thecerashop apparel? To preserve the print and fabric quality, we recommend:

  • Machine wash cold, inside-out, on a gentle cycle.

  • Tumble dry low or hang-dry.

  • Do not iron directly over the design.

How do I care for my dining decor (Plates, Bowls, Cutlery, Tablecloths)?

  • Ceramics (Mugs, Plates, Bowls): Most are microwave and dishwasher safe. However, items with metallic accents or delicate prints should be hand-washed.

  • Cutlery (Spoons, Chopsticks): We recommend hand-washing with mild detergent to maintain the finish.

  • Tablecloths & Napkins: Machine wash on a cold, delicate cycle and air dry to prevent shrinkage.

Do you offer gift wrapping or gift cards? Currently, we do not offer gift wrapping services. However, we do offer Digital Gift Cards which are delivered immediately via email.

3. Ordering & Payments

What payment methods are accepted? We primarily utilize PayPal for secure transactions. You can pay using your PayPal balance or major credit/debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Discover) via PayPal’s guest checkout. For details, see our Payment Policy.

Can I change my shipping address after the order is placed? Address changes are only possible within our 12-hour window after order placement. Once the order enters production, we cannot modify the shipping label. Please double-check your address at checkout as per our Shipping Policy.

4. Shipping & Post-Purchase Status

How long will it take to receive my order? Total Delivery Time = Production Time (1–3 business days) + Transit Time (4–7 business days for USA). During holidays, please allow an additional 4–7 business days for delays. See our Shipping Policy for international estimates.

I ordered multiple items, but only one arrived. Where is the rest? Since we offer a variety of products (apparel, mugs, and decor), they may be fulfilled from different specialized facilities. Your items may arrive in separate packages at slightly different times. You will receive tracking for each package.

Why is my tracking number not showing any updates? Don’t worry! It often takes 24–48 hours for carriers to update their system after the label is created. If there are no updates after 3 business days, please email us.

What should I do if I received the wrong size or design? We apologize! Please contact us at [email protected] within 7 days of delivery with a photo of the item and the shipping label. We will send the correct item to you immediately at no additional cost.

5. International Shopping (Outside the U.S.)

How long does customs clearance take? Customs processing times vary by country and are outside our control. This may add 3 – 5 days to the delivery time. Please monitor your tracking for updates.

What if I refuse to pay the customs fees? Per our Shipping Policy, import duties are the responsibility of the recipient. If a package is refused, it may be abandoned. In such cases, we cannot issue a full refund, and return costs will be deducted from your credit.

6. Returns & Refunds

What is the return window? We offer a 30-day return policy from the date marked as “Delivered.” Items must be unused and in original packaging. View the full process on our Return & Refund Policy page.

What if my dining decor or ceramics arrive damaged? Please contact us within 7 days of delivery with photos of the damaged product and the shipping label. We will send a replacement or issue a refund as per our Return & Refund Policy.

7. Security & Data Privacy

Is my personal information secure? Yes. As outlined in our Privacy Policy, we use SSL encryption to protect your data during transmission.

Do you store my credit card information? No. We do not store your credit card or financial details. All payments are processed securely through PayPal’s encrypted servers.

8. Intellectual Property & Copyright

What about Intellectual Property? We respect all copyrights and intellectual property rights. If you believe any content on our site infringes your rights, please refer to our DMCA Policy for instructions on filing a notice.

How do I report a copyright concern? Please send a detailed notice to [email protected] as outlined in our DMCA Policy. Our designated agent will review and respond to your claim promptly.
