Amazon Shipping
All Amazon orders are shipped from Amazon warehouses. Amazon does occasionally make shipping errors and if they do, they are quick to make it right. If they do not make it right, and you request a refund, we will nonetheless send you at no charge a repeat of the shipment in question as a thank you for being a patient customer. This happens rarely, but it does happen, and our customers are extremely important to us even when we are not at fault.
We maintain 5-star rating with Amazon. Our stick balm received a flag marker as an Amazon's Choice product in December 2016 and the large size had it in 2017. The flags are still flying. In 2018, Amazon awarded all our products as Amazon Choice, rotating the flag between them.
