Welcome to ReptiFiles, where better reptile care begins!

Custom Reptile Habitats Policies

Shipping policy

If the product is in stock, it usually ships within 1 business day. Many of our products like our enclosures are made to order and the approximate wait times are generally posted next to the product. 

UPS and FedEx Ground Shipping Rates - USA (excluding HI and AL)

Shipping rates are calculated at checkout.

We ship throughout the USA using UPS or FedEx and you can see the real time shipping rates as you checkout. While we offer both services, we will usually ship to your address using the best shipping rates at the time.

Also, the services displayed in your shopping cart and delivery times are when your order ships from our Ohio facilities and these times do not account for any lead times that we may have for our products.

All orders are insured and sometimes they can be delayed. In this case, please let us know so that we can help.

Please note: for larger enclosure orders, we often use a LTL carrier to deliver these larger items and in this case, you will receive a call and a delivery window for the delivery.  

 

Refund policy

We have an awesome return policy so should you not be 100% satisfied with your purchase, we will refund 100% of the purchase price within 30 days and, after receiving your returned order (Please Note: some restrictions apply such as customizations and custom build enclosures - see details below). Note: freight and *credit card costs cannot be refunded.

Note: Some of our products have a longer guarantee against faulty workmanship. Please contact us at support@reptifiles.com. 

If you received the wrong item: Sorry about the inconvenience and please contact us for return instructions so we can we fix our mistake at no cost to you.

If you ordered the wrong item: No worries, we accept returns as long as they are unused. Once we receive the package, we will credit you (either a refund or store credit) for the price you paid for the product. Sorry, we cannot cover original shipping costs or return shipping costs so please order carefully and don't hesitate to contact us if you are not sure about anything.

Order Cancellations: For order cancellations on enclosures, we allow 48 hours from the time your order was placed to notify us that you wish to cancel for a refund. After 48 hours, there is a 10% cancellation fee. 

For order cancellations on décor and other items other than enclosures, we allow 48 hours from the time your order was placed to notify us that you wish to cancel for a refund. After 48 hours, there is a 5% cancellation fee.

Please note: refunds may take up to 10 business days to process.  

Customized enclosures: We do cover all our customized enclosures with our standard 10 year warrantee but as they are one of a kind, made specifically for our customers, we do not offer returns or refunds on our customized enclosures.

*Please note: refunds do not include the merchant (PayPal, Visa, Mastercard etc.) fees that are paid to the processor at the time the order was placed and therefore a 2.5% fee will be deducted from all refunds.  

Missing Items: Please be sure to open and inspect your order as soon as it arrives to make sure there wasn't any damage and that there are not any missing parts. For missing parts, please contact us at support@reptifiles.com within 30 days so that we can replace anything that is missing from your order. Should anything be damaged, please see below. 

Damages

We pack our products really well but in the unlikely event of damage to your order, please contact us as soon as possible for instructions. Every shipment is of course fully insured but for the insurance claim we will need:

1. Photo of the shipping label.

2. Multiple photos of the outside of the box showing any tears or visible damage, and from all angles. 

3. Photo (or photos) of the damage to the order. 

4. You will need to keep all packaging, including the actual shipping box to assist us with the claim. 

Once received we will then file the claim and get your replacement part (or parts) shipped out to you as soon as possible. Please note: In the case of enclosures where you may have had a wait for your order to be made, we ship any replacement parts out as soon as possible and there is no wait time, as you have already ordered and received your order. Important: As there is a  limited window of time for us to file an insurance damage claim, it is extremely important that you report any damage as soon as your order is received and no longer than 14 days after receiving your delivery. Claims that are not reported within the insurance coverage period may not be covered. 

Returns

Should you not be 100% satisfied with your purchase, we will refund 100% of the purchase price within 30 days and, after receiving your returned order. If this is the case, please contact us for specific details on how to return your order to us so that we can provide you with the details, on how to safely return your order. PLEASE NOTE: RETURNS MUST BE APPROVED AND ASSIGNED A RETURN AUTHORIZATION NUMBER. This is so that we can receive and process your return, if a package does not have this number, it will be refused. Please note: all returns must be unused and received without damages. 
    

Chargebacks

We have easy to cancel policies should you no longer want or need your order and it's just a matter of contacting us to cancel. In the event that you were to bypass us and have your payment reversed through your credit card provider, this is a more lengthy process and attracts additional fees of $150 and may take several months to resolve. 
We are very easy to work with so please let us know if you no longer want or need your order so that we can cancel your order and issue a refund.
