Rush Orders If you have waited to place your order until the last minute, we will do everything we can to process your shipment order as quickly as possible.  Unfortunately this may not guarantee that your order will be delivered to you on time for your event.  Orders may not be returned, cancelled or refused because they did not or will not reach their destination by a specified or un-specified date.  By placing an order with FLM, the customer agrees that FLM is not responsible for shipping delays caused by the carrier or by weather or other conditions.   We make every effort to ensure that orders are processed in a timely manner and to accommodate customers who are placing last-minute gift orders. 

Lost Package In the unlikely event that your property is lost while in transit to you, the package and its contents will be replaced by the carrier.  Sorry, but no refunds will be issued on lost packages, they will be replaced only and re-shipped at the same delivery speed as the original shipment.  All shipments are F.O.B. Shipping Point and become the property of the receiver upon being turned over to the carrier.  USPS requires 8-10 working days to search for your package if it becomes lost.  Replacement packages cannot be sent until USPS completes their search and reimburse FLM.
Miss-Directed Package  In the unlikely event that your package is miss-directed during the shipping process, the original package will be routed to the receiver as quickly as possible by the parcel carrier.  No order may be cancelled, refused or returned because it was miss-directed in shipping or miss-labeled.  Shipping terms are FOB shipping point and become the property of the receiver upon delivery to the carrier.  No replacement shipment will be made on any miss-directed or miss-labeled package unless the carrier is unable to locate it, in which case it becomes a Lost Package and will be replaced by the carrier.

Attempted Delivery All orders become the legal property of the receiver the moment we turn the package over to the carrier.  In the event that the receiver is not home, on vacation, or is un-available to sign for a package on three delivery attempts the carrier will forward the receivers property to their un-claimed goods department until such time as the receiver contacts the carrier to make delivery arrangements for their property.  This does not constitute a cancellation of an order nor does it remove the legal obligation for the buyer to pay for their order. 
Customers will be responsible for all shipping charges and all re-shipping charges on any refused package.
