Refund & Return
Refund & Return Policy
Last Updated: [INSERT DATE]
IMPORTANT: PRINT-ON-DEMAND PRODUCTS
Aii Market operates on a print-on-demand business model. This means:
- Products are custom-made specifically for you after you place your order
- Items are not mass-produced or kept in stock
- Each product is manufactured only after payment is confirmed
- Products cannot be resold to other customers once manufactured
Because of this custom nature, our return and refund policy differs from traditional retail stores.
