After-Sales & Refund Policy
At AM VAPES, we take product quality and customer satisfaction seriously. Due to the personal-use nature and hygiene requirements of disposable vape products, all sales are final and we do not accept returns or exchanges for change-of-mind reasons. However, we are committed to resolving any issues you may encounter if a product arrives damaged or defective.
This policy outlines how we handle such situations and what you can expect from our after-sales support.
Products Covered
All disposable vape devices sold on our website fall under this policy. Because these are single-use, sealed products, we cannot accept returns once they have been opened or used for hygiene and safety reasons.
When You May Be Eligible for a Refund or Replacement
We will provide a full refund or free reshipment (at our discretion) in the following circumstances, provided you notify us within the timeframe and supply the required evidence:
-
Dead on Arrival (DOA) – Device Does Not Work
If your disposable vape arrives and fails to produce any vapour, does not activate, has a non-functioning battery or charging issue right out of the box, you must contact us within 7 days of delivery. We may ask for a short video demonstrating the fault. -
Severely Damaged in Transit
If the product packaging and device are physically broken or crushed during shipping to the point that the device is unusable, you must report this within 7 days of delivery and provide clear photos of the damage, including the outer packaging. -
Wrong Item Received
If you receive a completely different model, flavour, or colour to what you ordered, you must notify us within 7 days of delivery with a photo of the incorrect item and the packing slip.
In any of the above cases, once we verify the issue, we will either issue a full refund to your original payment method or arrange for a replacement to be shipped from our Sydney warehouse. We will confirm the resolution with you via email.
All refunds or replacements are at our sole discretion and are assessed on a case-by-case basis.

-
Change of mind after purchase.
