CaliConnected Package Protection

That’s the inspiration behind CaliConnected Package Protection.

Stop hunting for tracking numbers or digging through emails. No more dealing with 3rd party services to file a missing or damaged package claim.

Why is CaliConnected Package Protection better than the competition?

We just felt awful when customers broke their new bong after the second or third time they were using it, and even worse when it was at fault of a clumsy friend. And of course, we can’t forget about customers who didn’t notice damages until it was too late! If this happens to you and you opted-in for package protection at checkout, simply send in a picture of the broken or damaged item within 2 weeks of the delivery date and we will send you a replacement free of charge.

Package Protection Coverage Details:

Types of Claims:

  • Damaged Packages
  • Accidental Damages
  • Packages Lost in Transit
  • Stolen/Missing Packages

Damaged Packages:

This type of claim applies to items that were damaged while in transit from our warehouse before making it to your doorstep. Send us some pictures of what happened along with your order number and we will get you a replacement sent out right away! 

Please note: You must include clear pictures that show the entirety of the product and damages, including but not limited to clearly identifiable features or markings on the product. There will be no exceptions made for disposing of the product before contacting us.

If the original piece you purchased is sold out at the time of the claim we can replace your item with something in a similar price range or provide a full refund in the form of store credit with no expiration date. We can also issue a full refund to the original payment method with no restocking fee. 

If your vaporizer is dead on arrival we will send you a prepaid return label to send you item back and ship you a replacement once your return package is on the way. We require the item back so we can file a claim ourselves with the manufacturer to get the unit replaced. If your device was working initially but you’ve noticed a defect after first use, we can still ease the burden by handling all communications with the manufacturer to get you a replacement. Sending the original unit back to them in this situation will be a case by case scenario depending on the manufacturer. If the manufacturer is dragging their feet on a replacement and you purchased CaliConnected Package Protection, we will send you a replacement ourselves to expedite the process. 

Accidental Damages:

This type of claim applies to items that were damaged accidentally within the first 2 weeks of the delivery date. Send us a picture of what happened along with your order number and we will get you a replacement sent out right away!

Please note: You must include clear pictures that show the entirety of the product and damages, including but not limited to clearly identifiable features or markings on the product. There will be no exceptions made for disposing of the product before contacting us.

If the original piece you purchased is sold out at the time of the claim we can replace your item with something in a similar price range, or a full refund in the form of store credit with no expiration date. 

For this type of claim, we cannot offer a full refund to your credit card or original payment method. This is just to prevent any misuse of our generosity ie. purposefully breaking your product because you don’t like it as much as you thought you would!

Packages Lost in Transit:

A missing package can fall into 2 categories: stolen or lost in transit. Packages that are lost in transit happen when the postal carrier has failed to deliver the package within the promised delivery window and there has been no transit scans for at least 5-7 business days. No additional information needs to be provided to start a claim for this type of claim except your order number. 

Stolen/Missing Packages:

A package that is stolen, well, is nowhere to be found despite tracking information claiming it to be delivered. This type of claim will take us 48 business hours to process as we contact the postal carrier to determine first that the package wasn't scanned as delivered by accident or delivered to a nearby house by mistake. We also encourage you to safely ask around with neighbors or wave down your local USPS or UPS truck if possible to locate your package first.

Lost, stolen and/or missing package claims may be denied if the GPS scan details of your package are confirmed as being delivered to the shipping address entered at checkout. Claims will be denied if the package was signed by or handed directly to a resident at the shipping address. Lost and missing package claims are handled by management on a case by case basis. 

Lost and missing package claims, if approved, are only eligible for a replacement order with adult signature required. This type of claim is not eligible for a refund and likewise, the replacement order will not be eligible for a return. All sales are final in this situation.

What should I do if I didn’t purchase Package Protection?

If your package is Lost in Transit without CaliConnected Package Protection, you must first contact your local USPS office and open an investigation. They typically take 3-5 business days to determine if the package is lost or locate the items to get them moving again. 

We don’t cover accidental damages after your package is delivered without CaliConnected Package Protection. 

If a product is damaged upon arrival without CaliConnected Package Protection, we typically replace products that arrived damaged if timely photos are sent within 24 hours of delivery. However, we must file a claim with the delivery service first to use their insurance and cover our loss.

For stolen/missing packages without CaliConnected Package Protection, we usually can’t help further without a police report if proof of delivery is established by the carrier. USPS and UPS both provide GPS scan details upon request as proof of delivery.

Please refer to our Return Policy for more details regarding issues with package delivery if you opted-out of CaliConnected Package Protection.

Simply send in a picture of the broken or damaged items to info@caliconnected.com and we’ll do the rest!
