-
In-stock orders: processed within 1 business day.

Launch pre-orders / made-to-order (first 2,000 pcs / Size Demand Tracker items): processing up to 3 business days; customers on the pre-sell landing page receive priority dispatch updates.

4. Shipping rates (recommended for premium positioning)
- National flat rate: BDT 100 per order.

Free shipping for orders over BDT 1,000.
(These numbers are margins-friendly — tweak if needed.)
5. Premium handling & packaging

COD handling fee: BDT 40 per order.
7. Tracking & notifications
-
You’ll receive SMS + email at dispatch with a tracking link and ETA. Tracking updates are pushed until delivery.
8. Delivery attempts & failed deliveries
-
Courier will attempt delivery once (first attempt). If undelivered due to incorrect address/no one available, parcel returns to our warehouse.
-
Reshipment fees apply for returns caused by customer error (wrong address, refusal, repeated unavailability).
9. Signature & age-sensitive delivery
-
For high-value orders (above BDT 8,000) we require a signature on delivery for fraud protection.
-
If customer requests, we can mark “leave at doorstep” but Shonababu is not liable for theft/damage after delivery confirmation.
10. Local pickup
-
Local pickup from our Dhaka warehouse by appointment. Select “Local Pickup” at checkout and bring your order confirmation.
11. Returns & exchanges (baby clothing specifics)
-
Exchanges accepted within 7 days of delivery for size or defect — item must be unused, with original tags and packaging.
-
If the return/exchange is our fault (defect/wrong item), we cover return shipping and reship at no cost.
-
Change of mind / wrong size by customer: customer pays return shipping (unless a promotional return policy states otherwise).
-
We recommend customers use the Size Demand Tracker / pre-sell sizing guidance before ordering to reduce exchanges.
12. Delays & force majeure
-
Delivery windows are estimates. [YourBrand] is not liable for courier strikes, severe weather, or events outside our control. We’ll notify customers of major delays.

Not available during launch. Will be announced once ready.
