Cancel/ Change Order
Effective Date: April 3, 2024
At Rodtanaka, we understand that sometimes an order needs to be adjusted—whether it’s correcting a shipping address, updating product selections, or canceling an order altogether. Because we specialize in jewelry such as earrings, necklaces, and carefully curated accessories, and because we prioritize fast fulfillment, our order processing system is designed to move quickly.
This means there is a limited window of time during which cancellations or changes can be made. This Cancel / Change Order Policy outlines all conditions, timelines, and procedures to help you act quickly and effectively when needed.
1. Order Processing Framework
To maintain efficient delivery timelines, all orders are processed within a short timeframe after being placed.

Orders placed before 5:00 PM (EST) will typically begin processing the same business day. Orders placed after this time will be processed on the next business day.
Because of this rapid workflow, requests for cancellations or changes must be submitted as soon as possible after placing your order.
