Canceling your order

  • If you refused your order due to "no longer need", the tracking number must show that it has been "RETURN TO SENDER" for a refund to be issued. We recommend receiving a note from USPS or UPS document to ensure you have refused the package for a refund, otherwise, the tracking is the only way we will know it is one the way back to us for a refund which may cause some delays. 
  • Once your order has shipped, it cannot be cancelled or refunded until it is returned to OPT7.
    • Depending on the status of your order, we may not be able to cancel it. Please contact us immediately. We will help you the best we can. If we are unable to cancel your order, we can always walk you through our easy returns process.
    • Request to cancel, but already shipped: In these cases, we are unable to stop the package once it is in transit. We will have to wait for the order to arrive to you and process a return. To walk you through the process, we will provide you with the tracking number (so you know its on the way) and provide return instructions of the item(s) to be returned for a refund in cases that you reached out to us and we were unable to cancel per request. 
  • If we are unable to cancel the order and it arrives to you - we will need to set up an RMA number for your order to be returned for a refund. Please contact our Support Team to request an RMA number or using our self-service RMA Request System 

FAQ: 

1.) My tracking says delivered, but I never got my order (DOMESTIC ORDERS):

  • If you receive this notice but the package is not in your mailbox, in your apartment office, or on the doorstep, here are some things to know: USPS delivery vans have GPS that sometimes automatically updates a shipment as "delivered" prematurely. Wait another business day because the package was most likely marked as delivered accidentally, and will arrive the following day

    • Contact your local post office. Make sure to call your LOCAL OFFICE, and NOT the USPS HOTLINE (this can take a lot of time, and they only tell you what the tracking already says). Ask them who delivered the parcel, and ask them details about that day's delivery. They are used to these types of questions, and can usually provide helpful information.
    • If the parcel does not show up (extremely rare occasion), please call the Post Office and file a claim. OPT7 cannot reimburse orders that were mis-delivered by the post office or stolen from a property, thank you for understanding! 
    • If your package was stolen and a USPS Claim was completed, please email us and we'll try our best to provide other options to assist you. 

2.) I receive an email saying it was shipped, but there wasn't a tracking number:

  • If you've received this, it means your order has been shipped by our Amazon Fulfilment Center and is currently in the tracking process in which we are waiting for Amazon to provide the tracking # to us. A tracking will be added to your order details in 1-2 business days to your order/ account after you've received the email. We recommend signing up for an OPT7 account so that you can check the tracking at your convenience; if not, we can always help check for you also. 
    • If you need an ORDER UPDATE [click here] & select Shipping Support on the drop down.

3.) Why is my order being split and sent in two shipments?

  • Due to the amount of high volume orders, some orders will ship from our Fremont, California warehouse and the others will ship from our Amazon warehouse. Shipments from Amazon warehouse generally make it to your house in 4-7 days. You will also receive two emails each with a tracking number once your order has been shipped. 

4.)  I got my package, but I received the wrong item/ size: 

  • We have systems in place to make sure you get the proper item and the correct size, but we are humans and mistakes can happen. If you received the wrong item or the wrong size, please send detailed photos of the unused items and a brief explanation to support@opt-7.com within 7 days of receiving your item(s). We will be able to look into the issue right away! If you fail to provide us with prompt notification, we will not authorize your return or exchange. 

5.) My item(s) is damaged/ defective: 

  • If you feel that the product you received is defective or damaged, send detailed photos of the unused item and a brief explanation of the defect to support@opt-7.com within 7 days of when you receive the product(s). We will be able to look into the issue right away! If you fail to provide us with prompt notification, we will not authorize your return or exchange. 

 6.) Got a tracking number via email, but I'm not sure what method was use to ship my items?
