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.

Processing Timeline Overview

Processing Days

Monday – Friday

Cut-Off Time

5:00 PM (EST)

Handling Time

1 Business Day

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.


2. Cancellation Policy

Orders may only be canceled before they enter the processing stage. Once an order has been processed or shipped, cancellation is no longer possible.

Customers are responsible for ensuring that all shipping details are accurate at the time of checkout.

If You Made a Mistake

  • Contact us immediately before processing begins
  • We will attempt to update the information if possible

Important Considerations

Rodtanaka is not responsible for:

  • Delays caused by incorrect addresses
  • Packages delivered to incorrect locations due to customer error
  • Failed deliveries resulting from incomplete information

Additional shipping charges may apply if reshipment is required.


9. Duplicate Orders

If you accidentally place multiple orders:

  • Contact us immediately to cancel the duplicate
  • If processing has already begun, cancellation may not be possible

In such cases, duplicate items must be returned after delivery in accordance with our return policy.


10. Failed Cancellation or Change Requests

If your request cannot be fulfilled due to processing status:

  • You will be notified promptly
  • No changes will be made to the order
  • You may still return the item after delivery

We encourage early communication to avoid these situations.


11. Fraud Prevention & Order Review

To protect both customers and our business, Rodtanaka reserves the right to:

  • Review and verify orders before processing
  • Cancel orders suspected of fraud or unauthorized activity
  • Request additional verification if necessary

If an order is canceled for security reasons:

  • A full refund will be issued
  • You will be notified via email

12. Customer Responsibility

By placing an order on our website, you acknowledge that:

  • You have reviewed your order details before submission
  • You understand the limited window for changes or cancellations
  • You agree to comply with the terms outlined in this policy

Taking a moment to double-check your order at checkout can help prevent the need for changes later.
