OUR REFUND/RETURN POLICIES
— Customers are allowed to return books they have ordered from us. If the book(s) are returned in perfect shape of re-sale within 30 days of the date on the receipt, the customer is entitled to store credit for the items returned. All books need to be returned to our store address: H.E.S., 812 Camelia St., Berkeley, CA. 94710. “Special order” books are non-refundable because we order these books at the specific request of our customers.
— Homeopathic medicines are legally recognized by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration as “unapproved drugs,” the vast majority of which do not need a doctor’s prescription to purchase. Because our customers deserve the highest standards for care of their homeopathic medicines, our customers will never receive medicines that were previously sent to another customer. To maintain this high level of confidence in the medicines that we sell and ship, we do not accept returns on any medicine. We do not and cannot guarantee specific benefits from homeopathic medicines.
— Our company will accept returns of audiotapes and CD-audios but only if these items are faulty. If a customer returns these items as faulty, we will re-send working copy of the same item to the customer at no expense to them, unless they returned an item that was not faulty.
— Our company sells software from different companies. Some companies provide a 30-day grace period in which to return the software. Customers are encouraged to ask us what the return policy is for the specific software they wish to purchase.
