  • High-volume holiday periods

Novelball is not liable for carrier-related delays once packages have been transferred to USPS, UPS, or FedEx.

If your shipment appears significantly delayed, please contact our support team for assistance.


11. Lost or Missing Packages

If your tracking information indicates that your package was delivered but you have not received it, we recommend the following steps:

  • Description of the issue

Damage claims should be submitted within a reasonable timeframe after delivery.

Novelball will review each case individually and work toward an appropriate resolution.


13. Partial Shipments

In some situations, orders containing multiple items may ship separately.

This may occur because of:

  • Inventory availability

Carriers may make multiple delivery attempts depending on the shipping service selected.

If delivery attempts fail:

  • A notice may be left by the carrier
  • The shipment may eventually be returned to sender

Customers are encouraged to monitor tracking information closely to avoid missed deliveries.


17. Risk of Loss

Ownership and risk of loss for purchased items transfer to the customer upon carrier acceptance and shipment dispatch.

Novelball is not responsible for delays, theft, or losses occurring after delivery confirmation from the shipping carrier.
