Shipping:

We ship all orders as requested by the customer upon completion of order. Most orders are successfully sent via US Postal Service, first class mail or Global Priority. We are not responsible for lost shipments. You must contact us about a lost shipment claim within 30 days of the order being shipped.

TomatoFest is not responsible for lost or damaged shipments. We are not responsible for lost orders shipped to an incorrect address. If you provided us with an incorrect address, you assume all risk.

International Orders. Please read before ordering!!!

We do ship seeds internationally. However, we cannot be held responsible if your order is delayed, lost or confiscated by the Customs office of your country. If you buy seed from us, have it shipped to a foreign country and it is rejected it will be at your own expense. We will not be responsible for rejected or "lost" orders. You will not receive a refund or ANY form of compensation. All foreign orders are shipped at you own risk.

Please note: We do not issue phytosanitary certificates which are some times needed to ship for foreign countries. It cost us a great deal to have a certificate issued because the Agricultural Inspector (for a fee) must come out to inspect each packet of seeds in the shipment and the process involved is not cost effective for us. TomatoFest is not responsible for orders sent to foreign countries or orders sent to FPO/APO addresses.
