How will I know if my order has been received and processed by XOOMEXPRESS?
XOOMEXPRESS upon receipt and processing of your order will send you a confirmation email indicating the arrival of your item and the pertinent information obtained from processing.

Items can be stored in our warehouse for FREE for up to 35 days upon receipt and processing. Once the item has been stored more than 35 days, a storage fee is assessed which is $ 1/day or $.10/chargeable weight per day or whichever is higher.
After 35 days, XOOMEXPRESS will be making 3 attempts to contact the customer regarding an item in storage, If no response has been obtained from the customer, XOOMEXPRESS has the discretion to dispose of the product accordingly.
