9. Product Fulfillment
SP3ND's Responsibilities:

- Source products from its suppliers or fulfillment partners using its own funds
- Provide order tracking and status information
What SP3ND Does Not Control:
- Product quality, authenticity, or suitability
- Inventory availability

SP3ND is not responsible for delays, damage, loss, or non-delivery caused by our fulfillment partners. Issues with product quality, shipping, or delivery should be addressed through SP3ND's support channels, and SP3ND will coordinate with fulfillment partners to resolve the issue.
Third-Party Fulfillment and Platform Terms:
Products made available through SP3ND may be sourced from third-party marketplaces and suppliers. Your purchase may therefore be subject to additional terms, conditions, and policies imposed by such third parties, including but not limited to those governing shipping, returns, refunds, and product warranties.
SP3ND does not control and is not responsible for the performance, policies, or actions of third-party providers. To the maximum extent permitted by law, SP3ND disclaims liability for any issues arising from third-party fulfillment, including delays, delivery failures, product defects, or return disputes.
SP3ND will use commercially reasonable efforts to assist users in coordinating resolutions with third-party providers but does not guarantee outcomes.
10. Refund Policy
All purchases made through SP3ND are subject to the fulfillment policies of the underlying third-party suppliers and marketplaces.
Due to the nature of cryptocurrency transactions, all payments are final once processed. However, SP3ND will review and assist with refund or replacement requests under certain circumstances.
Eligible Situations for Review:
- Item not received
- Item received is materially different from what was ordered
- Item arrives damaged or defective
Process for Refund Requests:
- Users must submit a request through SP3ND's official support channels with order details and a description of the issue
- SP3ND will review the request and coordinate with the relevant third-party supplier or marketplace
- Resolution outcomes (including refunds, replacements, or denials) are subject to the policies and decisions of the third-party provider
Important Refund Terms:
- SP3ND does not guarantee refunds, as outcomes depend on third-party fulfillment partners
- Refunds, if approved, may be issued in cryptocurrency equivalent or original payment method at SP3ND's discretion
- Processing times may vary depending on third-party response and resolution timelines
SP3ND will use commercially reasonable efforts to advocate on behalf of users but does not control and cannot guarantee the outcome of any refund or dispute request.
