Last Updated: 19/06/2026

Welcome to PChronicles (“Company”, “we”, “our”, or “us”). We are committed to providing quality products and excellent customer service. This Return, Refund & Exchange Policy explains the conditions under which products purchased through PChronicles may be returned, exchanged, or refunded.

By placing an order on our website, you agree to the terms of this Policy.


  1. RETURN WINDOW

    Customers are encouraged to inspect their orders immediately upon delivery.

    Any visible damage, missing items, or incorrect products should preferably be reported to Pchronicles within 48 hours of delivery to facilitate timely investigation.

    Customers reporting an issue should provide their order number, a description of the problem, and relevant photographs or supporting evidence where reasonably available.

    Reports received after 48 hours will be assessed based on the nature of the complaint, available evidence, and applicable consumer protection laws.

    Pchronicles reserves the right to verify complaints, examine relevant order and delivery records, and request reasonable supporting information before approving a remedy.

    Claims found to be fraudulent or deliberately misleading may be rejected, subject to applicable law.

    Nothing in this policy limits a customer’s statutory rights regarding defective, misdescribed, or incorrectly supplied products.

A return request may be approved if:

  • The wrong product was delivered.
  • The product arrived damaged.
  • The product has a manufacturing defect.

  1. INSPECTION PROCESS

Returned products will be inspected to confirm their condition and assess the reason for the return.

Pchronicles may review the order details, product condition, photographs and other relevant information before making a decision.

Customers will be informed of the outcome of their return request and the reasons for any refusal.

Where a claim is approved, Pchronicles will communicate the available remedy, which may include a replacement, exchange, repair or refund, depending on the nature of the issue and applicable law.

Return requests will be assessed fairly and consistently. Nothing in this section limits a customer’s statutory rights.


  1. REFUNDS

A refund may be approved where an order is cancelled, a product is confirmed to be defective or incorrect, a product cannot be supplied or delivered, or another eligible return or refund condition is met.

Where a refund is approved, Pchronicles will normally initiate the refund through the original payment method, where supported by the payment provider.

Where the original payment method cannot reasonably be used, Pchronicles will contact the customer to agree on an appropriate alternative, subject to applicable law.

Refunds will be based on the amount properly refundable for the affected order. Any deductions must be explained to the customer and must be lawful and justified.

Store credit or wallet credit will not be imposed as the only refund option where a monetary refund is required by applicable law.


  1. REFUND PROCESSING TIME

Once a refund has been approved, Pchronicles will initiate the refund within 7–14 business days, where practicable.

The time taken for the funds to appear in the customer’s account may depend on the payment provider, bank or card issuer.

If additional time is required, Pchronicles will notify the customer where reasonably possible and provide an update on the status of the refund.

Customers who have not received an expected refund should contact us with their order number and payment details sufficient to identify the transaction. Customers should not send passwords, PINs or one-time verification codes.


  1. EXCHANGES

Where stock is available, PChronicles may offer an exchange instead of a refund.

Exchanges may be granted for:

  • Wrong item delivered.
  • Defective product.
  • Damaged product.
  • Approved size-related issues.

If the replacement item costs more, the customer shall pay the difference.

If the replacement item costs less, the balance may be issued as store credit.


  1. SHIPPING COSTS

Where PChronicles Is Responsible

PChronicles shall bear return shipping costs where:

  • The wrong product was delivered.
  • The product was damaged before delivery.
  • The product is confirmed defective.

Where the Customer Is Responsible

The customer shall bear return shipping costs where:

  • The customer changed their mind.
  • The customer ordered the wrong product.
  • The product is not defective.
  • The return is based on personal preference.

Shipping fees paid at checkout are non-refundable.


  1. INTERNATIONAL ORDERS

Customers outside Nigeria may return eligible products under the same conditions outlined in this Policy.

However:

  • International return shipping costs remain the responsibility of the customer unless PChronicles made an error.
  • Customs duties, import taxes, brokerage fees, and governmental charges are non-refundable.


  1. FRAUD PREVENTION

To protect the integrity of our platform, PChronicles reserves the right to:

  • Reject suspicious claims.
  • Request identity verification.
  • Request additional evidence.
  • Limit future returns.
  • Suspend customer accounts.
  • Cancel pending orders.
  • Refuse service.

Any attempt to return counterfeit, stolen, substituted, altered, or tampered products may be reported to relevant authorities.

  15.PAYMENTSDISPUTES AND CHARGEBACKS

Pchronicles is committed to resolving payment-related complaints fairly, promptly, and transparently.

Customers are encouraged to contact Pchronicles Customer Support before initiating a chargeback or payment dispute so that we have an opportunity to investigate and resolve the issue.

Where a payment dispute or chargeback is initiated, Pchronicles reserves the right to review relevant transaction records, order confirmations, delivery information, and communications, and to submit appropriate evidence to the payment provider.

Pchronicles may take proportionate action against accounts where there is credible evidence of deliberate fraud, payment abuse, or repeated misuse of the platform, subject to applicable law.

Customers will not be penalised solely for raising a genuine complaint or exercising their lawful right to dispute a transaction.

Pchronicles reserves the right to pursue lawful remedies where deliberate fraud or financial misconduct is established.


  1. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

PChronicles’ liability under this Policy shall be limited solely to:

  • Replacement of the product;
  • Exchange of the product; or
  • Refund of the purchase price paid.

PChronicles shall not be liable for:

  • Indirect losses;
  • Consequential damages;
  • Loss of profit;
  • Loss of business opportunities;
  • Emotional distress;
  • Delays caused by third parties.


  1. RIGHT TO REFUSE RETURNS

Pchronicles may refuse a return request where the product does not meet the applicable return conditions, the claim cannot reasonably be verified, or the product has been damaged through misuse or unauthorised modification.

Any refusal will be based on the circumstances of the case and communicated to the customer with an explanation.

This policy does not exclude returns, refunds, repairs, replacements or other remedies required by applicable law. Where a product is defective, incorrect or otherwise fails to meet applicable legal requirements, the customer’s rights will be assessed accordingly.


  1. GOVERNING LAW

This Policy shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Any dispute arising from this Policy shall first be addressed through good-faith negotiation. Where resolution cannot be reached, the matter shall be submitted to the competent courts of Nigeria.

19. FRAUDULENT CLAIMS AND MISUSE OF RETURN PRIVILEGES 

Pchronicles maintains a fair and transparent return and refund process.

We reserve the right to investigate suspected fraudulent claims, including deliberately false reports of non-delivery, product damage, missing items, or unauthorised transactions.

Where credible evidence establishes deliberate misuse of our policies, Pchronicles may reject claims that are not legally valid and take reasonable, proportionate action to protect the business.

Any such action will comply with applicable laws and will not restrict legitimate customer complaints or statutory consumer rights.
