Unfortunately, we can confirm that the parcel was reported as lost by the carrier in the United States and, as a result, they were unable to complete the delivery. We understand how disappointing this is, especially when you have been looking forward to receiving your purchase.
We can see that we have previously been in contact with you regarding this matter and that a full refund has already been processed. While we are pleased we were able to resolve the financial aspect of the issue promptly, we appreciate that this does not make up for the disappointment and inconvenience caused by the loss of the package.
