After you place your order through AbsntMinded.com, you will receive a confirmation notice on the website and/or through a confirmation email. The onscreen confirmation notice and/or confirmation email that we send to you does not constitute acceptance of your order.

(c) Refunds. Any return for a refund will be subject to a 10-18% restocking fee. This fee may be waived for defective and carrier damaged products. If your return is approved, we will initiate a refund to your credit card (or original method of payment). You will receive the credit within a certain amount of days, depending on your card issuer's policies. If you receive a refund, the cost of return shipping will be deducted from your refund.
