Returns & Refunds Policy
Last Updated: [Insert Date]
At Mixshop, we are committed to providing quality products and excellent customer service. Due to the nature of food and grocery products, certain restrictions apply to returns and refunds to ensure food safety, hygiene, and compliance with Dutch and European Union regulations.
Please read this policy carefully before making a purchase.
1. Introduction

9. Order Cancellation
Before Shipment

After Shipment
Once an order has been shipped, cancellation may no longer be possible.
Food Products
Because many products sold by Mixshop are food products, cancellation rights may be limited after processing and dispatch.
Customers should contact us as soon as possible if they wish to cancel an order.

However, this right does not apply to:
