We do not offer compensation in the following situations

1. Products are damaged, but do not have any warranty.
Some sellers do not offer quality assurance for some of their product categories. In this case, we will check the working performance of the products, before we package them (i. e. turning on electronic products, such as mobile phone, to confirm they are working). More specific and effective technical tests require professional equipment, which is not at our disposal.
The following listed products do notoffer quality assurance:
Supplies for Daily and Medical Use
Electronic Products
Mobile Phones
Computer Accessories
AutoParts
This listing is not complete.Please, seriously consider the points, written above, if you want to purchase complex equipment, electronic products or supplies for daily use.
2. Product defects, caused during use of product
All quality issues refer to new products. Clothes may shrink and shoes may be worn out after use. We do not accept any claims on used items.
3. The rating of the seller is low (symbol❤)
We recommend shopping at high rated sellers (blue crown and yellow crown). If you wish to purchase items from low rated sellers, please note that these sellers may not provide real product data and descriptions. Due to this reason, WhereTao cannot accept claims on items bought from low rated sellers.
4. The actual size of the product does not match the measurement chart provided by theseller.
In case the product sized on the label of the actual item does not match the measurement chart of the seller, we do not accept the claim. This discrepancy can be attributed to either the sellers faulty advertisement or dressing habits, where ordered sized could unexpectedly be different to the sizes you normally might be used to.
For example, the seller points out that a product has the size XL with the bust measurement being 110 cm, but actually the size turns out the be 90 cm. In another example you might be used to wear size M and therefore choose to purchase an item in size M, but the product you receive may be smaller. In such cases we do not offer compensation, since we do not measure items, once we receive them. Only product labels and any accordance with the notes, you left us, are checked.
In case you leave us any specific requests in your “notes” while purchasing the item, we will personally contact the seller and then place an order based on the detailed product information provided by the seller. However, if it turns out the size you chose still does not fit you, we do not accept any claims.
5. Theactual product does not match the seller’s description.
It is not possible for us to test the exact material of the product upon arrivalin our warehouse. We cannot test whether your product is made of pure silk, natural leather, etc.
6. The parcel or box is in a bad condition and the product seems to have been damaged during the process of shipment.
We try our best to pack each item very carefully, especially fragile goods. However, please note that your parcel may have been opened more than once time(at customs inspection and post office). If your parcel appears to have dents, deformations, signs of having been exposed to wetness and dirt, please open the package right in the presence of the post man. In case the package has been damaged during transit, you shall submit any claims with the logistics company.
7. Falsely placed order (the note left with us does not match the product description)
Forexample, you place an order and your note, you leave with us during the purchasing process, does not fit the product information (blue shoes in size 38, but your note says ‘blue color and size 41’).
If you purchase any items in bulk, please make sure you clearly state your desiredcolor and size.
8. The logo or brand on the actual product does not match the logo or brand displayed in the description.
If you purchase any counterfeit product, it is not possible to verify and guarantee that design, model and material are consistent with the original brand. We are unable to check any product attributes, cannot guarantee that the products’ packaging or tags are consistent with the original brand. Additionally, selling counterfeit products conflicts with customs laws and regulations on the protection of intellectual property rights. Consequently, such items may be detained or confiscated when shipped.
9. Colortone does not match.
After receiving the product from the seller, we check the product color and match it with your order. In case the color provided by the seller and the color ordered by the buyer are not the same, WhereTao is not responsible for any compensation. For example, the product description says ‘light blue’ and you choose blue color. After youreceive the blue item, we are not responsible for any compensation based on adifference in color shade. Sometimes there is a slight color difference, due tothe difference in monitors, which could lead to different colors of the onlinepicture and the delivered item.

How do we check Products

After the products arrive in our warehouse, they are thoroughly checked according to size, color and physical condition, to make sure they are just the same as they appear in the description on our web page. Should you buy a blue dress in size M, then we will pack it according to these relevant standards: label M, blue color, no obvious defects(slit, wear, etc.). Additional quality concerns are very subjective.

Please note: The information concerning the material of our goods is provided by the supplier. Even though we receive the physical goods, our support staff is unable to answer questions regarding the material of the goods (e.g. is the shirt made of pure silk, is the bag real leather, etc.). For the same reason, please note, that if you purchase electronic components and require us to run a test, we will not be able to satisfy your needs, since this involves the usage of special equipment and technical tools.Therefore, we do not provide a guarantee for this kind of products.
