At Olibaa, we want customers to shop with confidence. This Return & Refund Policy explains when products may be returned, replaced, exchanged or refunded and the conditions that apply to different product categories.
At Olibaa, our goal is to provide customers with a reliable and transparent online shopping experience. Customers should receive products that reasonably match the description, specifications, quantity, variation and condition presented at the time of purchase.
Because Olibaa offers products across multiple categories, including Smart Gadgets, Computer Accessories, Solar Power Equipment, Water Filters, Medical & Surgical Supplies, Natural Products, Innerwear & Fashion, Industrial Chemicals & Parts, Books & Stationery and other categories, return conditions may vary depending on the nature of the product.
Some products may generally be returned within the applicable return period if they remain unused and in acceptable condition. Other products may have stricter return requirements because of hygiene, health, contamination, installation, safety, perishability, customization or product-specific considerations.
Customers should review product descriptions, specifications, warranty information, size information, compatibility requirements and category-specific return conditions before completing an order.
This Return & Refund Policy should be read together with Olibaa's Terms & Conditions, Seller Policy, Privacy Policy, Shipping Policy, warranty information and any other applicable marketplace rules.
Where applicable law gives customers rights that cannot legally be restricted by this policy, those legal rights will continue to apply.
A return request may generally be considered when one or more of the following situations apply:
Return eligibility depends on the product category, condition, time elapsed since delivery and whether the product has been opened, installed, activated, altered, washed, consumed, contaminated or used.
Submitting a return request does not automatically guarantee approval. Olibaa or the relevant seller may review the order, product condition and supporting evidence before approving a return, replacement, exchange or refund.
The following return request periods generally apply to Olibaa product categories:
| Product Category | Return Request Period |
|---|---|
| Smart Gadgets | Within 7 Days |
| Computer Accessories | Within 7 Days |

The applicable period normally starts from the date on which the product is successfully delivered to the customer.
Requests submitted after the applicable return period may not qualify for a standard return. However, where a valid manufacturer warranty, seller warranty or other applicable customer right continues beyond the normal return period, the customer may still be eligible for warranty service.
For a standard return, the product should generally meet the following conditions:
A return may be rejected when a product has been materially altered, damaged after delivery, deliberately modified, repaired without authorization or returned with major advertised components missing.
If a product arrives visibly damaged, customers should contact Olibaa as soon as reasonably possible within the applicable return period.
Customers may be asked to provide:
Customers are encouraged to inspect packages promptly after delivery.
Damage caused after delivery by dropping, misuse, incorrect installation, unsuitable power supply, water exposure, negligence or unauthorized repair may not qualify for a standard return.
If the customer receives a product different from the product ordered, the issue should be reported within the applicable return period.
Examples include:
Customers should avoid unnecessary use of the incorrect product.
Where appropriate, Olibaa or the seller may arrange replacement with the correct product. If the correct product is unavailable, an eligible refund or another reasonable resolution may be offered.
Customers should report missing advertised components or accessories promptly.
Examples may include:
Depending on the circumstances, the missing item may be supplied separately, the complete product may be replaced or another appropriate solution may be offered.
A product may be considered defective when a genuine manufacturing or functional problem prevents normal use.
For electronic products, reasonable troubleshooting may sometimes be required before a return is approved.
Troubleshooting may include checking:
Where a genuine defect is confirmed within the return period, replacement, return or refund may be considered.
After the normal return period expires, warranty service may apply instead.
A change of preference alone may not always qualify for a return.
Examples include:
Olibaa may accept certain change-of-mind returns where the product remains unopened, unused, complete and suitable for resale. This option is not guaranteed for every category or product.
Smart Gadgets may generally qualify for a return request within 7 days of delivery.
This category may include:
Products should not be physically damaged, modified or misused.
Where an electronic device has been linked to an account or security lock, the customer may be required to remove that account or lock before returning the item.

Examples include:
Customers should confirm compatibility before ordering where product specifications are clearly available.
Products damaged by incorrect voltage, unsupported installation, physical damage or unauthorized modification may not qualify for a return.
Solar Power Equipment may generally qualify for a return request within 7 days of delivery.

Customers are encouraged to use qualified installers for technical solar equipment.
Water Filters and related equipment may generally qualify for return within 7 days of delivery.
Products are normally easier to return before installation.
After a filter is installed and water has passed through cartridges or filtration media, hygiene and contamination considerations may restrict return eligibility.
Used cartridges, opened filtration media or contaminated components may generally be non-returnable for change-of-mind reasons.
Wrong products, damaged products, missing components and verified defects may still be reviewed under this policy or applicable warranty conditions.
Medical & Surgical Supplies generally have a shorter return request period of 3 days from delivery.
Important: Opened, used, contaminated or unsealed hygiene-sensitive medical products may be non-returnable unless a verified defect, incorrect product, delivery damage or applicable customer right requires another resolution.
Products with broken sterile seals may not qualify for a standard return.
Customers should inspect sealed medical products carefully before opening them.

This category may include:
Products that have been opened, consumed, mixed, applied or otherwise used may be non-returnable for hygiene and safety reasons.

Returned products may be inspected after they are received.
Inspection may verify:
Where a returned product materially differs from the information provided in the return request, eligibility may be reviewed again.
Eligible refunds will normally be processed through an available and appropriate payment method.
Depending on the original payment method and Olibaa's available payment systems, refunds may be processed through:
Olibaa will not normally issue a refund to an unrelated third party.
Refund processing time can vary depending on the payment method, bank, payment processor, mobile financial service provider, return inspection and verification requirements.

Shipping fees may be handled differently depending on why the return is requested.
Where a return results from:
Olibaa or the relevant seller may cover eligible return shipping costs where appropriate.
Where a discretionary change-of-mind return is accepted, initial shipping charges may not necessarily be refundable and return shipping charges may apply.
Cash on Delivery orders may also qualify for eligible returns.
Because payment was originally made in cash, an approved refund may need to be provided through another supported refund method.
Customers must provide accurate refund information when requested.
Products purchased during Flash Deals, coupon campaigns, seasonal offers, promotional events or discount sales are generally subject to the applicable return policy unless different conditions were clearly disclosed before purchase and are permitted.
Where a refund is approved, the refund amount is generally based on the amount actually paid by the customer.
Where a product is purchased as part of a bundle, the complete bundle may need to be returned.
Free promotional gifts may also need to be returned where the primary product is returned.
Where part of a bundle is retained, any refund may be adjusted where appropriate.
A product's return period and warranty period are not the same.
For example, a product may have a 7-day return period but a 12-month manufacturer warranty.
Once the standard return period expires, eligible problems may be handled through repair, warranty service, manufacturer support or replacement instead of a standard return.
Where a product includes a manufacturer warranty, service may be provided by the manufacturer or an authorized service provider.
Warranty procedures may require:
Customers should review product-specific warranty conditions before purchase.
Certain products may include seller warranty instead of manufacturer warranty.
The product listing should clearly indicate the applicable warranty period and relevant conditions.
Sellers are expected to honor warranty commitments that were clearly communicated at the time of purchase.
Customers should verify compatibility before purchasing technical products where sufficient information is available.
This is particularly important for:
A correctly functioning product that is incompatible because the customer selected an incorrect specification may not automatically qualify as defective.
Certain products require professional installation.
Examples may include:

Where a product appears defective before installation, customers should avoid continuing installation until the matter is reviewed.
Olibaa may investigate or reject return requests involving suspected fraud or misuse.
Examples include:
Serious or repeated abuse may result in account restrictions.
Customers may be able to cancel an order before shipment depending on the order status.
If an order has already been processed or handed over to the delivery provider, cancellation may not always be possible.
Where an eligible prepaid order is cancelled before shipment, the refund will normally be processed through the applicable refund method.
Customers should avoid refusing delivery without a valid reason.
Repeated unjustified refusal may affect future ordering options.
Where a package appears seriously damaged at the time of delivery, customers should contact Olibaa support for guidance.
Customers should follow Olibaa's approved return shipping instructions.
Where return tracking is provided, customers should keep the relevant tracking information until the case has been completed.

By purchasing through Olibaa, customers acknowledge that return eligibility depends on the applicable product category, return period, product condition, warranty status and circumstances surrounding the request.
This policy does not limit any mandatory consumer rights that apply under applicable law.
