Return Policy

What is the return policy of Caribbean Liquors & Tobacco for businesses?
Customers may return a product that is in saleable condition to the Caribbean Liquors & Tobacco provided it is accompanied by the original invoice receipt within thirty (30) days of purchase. A restocking fee of 20% for returned items will be applied. The customer can be refunded by way of a credit to their account, exchange of product, or a cancellation of credit card transaction. No Cash will be refunded.

The exception is wines and champagnes which must be returned within 24 hours, and items bought on a special promotion are non-returnable unless otherwise agreed upon in writing.

In the case of a defected product, the product will be exchanged within three (3) days of purchase.

What does saleable condition mean?
Saleable condition means the items are suitable for selling or capable of being sold. The product must be in good condition. It must be clean, unopened, label intact and no water or any other types of damage visible.

Can I return champagne or wine?
Proper storage is integral to the quality of wines and champagnes. After a sale we are not in control of where an item has been stored, and as such we cannot issue a refund for wines or champagnes after 24 hours has passed.

Can I return delisted or promotional sale products?
No. When CLT decides to stop carrying a product or carryout a sale its price is decreased to enable us to clear remaining inventories of the product. The sale of all delisted and on sale product is final, unless otherwise agreed upon in writing by a company representative.

Is there a limit to the number of products I can return?
There is no limit to the number or value of products which may be returned at any given time as long as items are accompanied by the original invoice receipt within three (3) days of purchase.

How do I return a defective product?
CLT is committed to providing the highest quality beverage, alcohol and tobacco products available. If you feel you have purchased a defective product from our inventory, you may return the product to us for inspection. Return of a faulty product must indicate immediate discovery. Defective returns will not be accepted when a large fraction of product is absent from the packaging.

Extraordinary circumstances: Returning product after 30 days.
Under extraordinary circumstances a product may be returned after 30 days. This will be handled on a case-by-case basis and must be approved by management. The products must be in saleable condition, there will be a 20% restocking fee, and the products are subject to a 30% depreciation value.

CLT is dedicated and strives to maintain a prompt delivery schedule to all customers. Our general order processing policy typically allows up to a 48-hour delay from the time of order confirmation to receipt of order.
