2ndLife Ventures does not sell products directly. All products on our website are from third-party sellers or vendors on the platform.

Third-party sellers choose whether or not they offer a return policy, and if they offer one, they choose how long it lasts before it expires. Therefore, the return policy for Third-party items can vary: some Third-party sellers choose 3, 7 or even 14day return policies, while other sellers choose to offer no return policy.

If something goes wrong with an eligible product sold by a Third-party store and you notify us before the return policy set by the seller expires, we will help you to reach a satisfactory resolution such as a return for replacement, exchange, or refund. However, if the return policy set by a seller has expired, 2ndLife Ventures ability to help you may be limited. (In this scenario, you may have to negotiate a resolution directly with the seller, but NH mall will try to help if we can.)

For change requests on items that are not defective but approved for return by the seller, you will be entitled to a replacement, exchange or voucher refund.

TIP: Before buying an item, check the return policy offered.
