How Compensation is Calculated
Sugargoo's compensation policy is designed to be fair and transparent, based on the nature of the loss and verifiable value.
| Scenario | Compensation Basis | Important Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Lost Parcel (not delivered) | Typically up to the declared value of the items plus any paid shipping costs for that parcel, subject to the terms of the chosen shipping line. | Compensation is contingent on the specific policy of the logistics provider used. |
| Partial Loss or Damage | Compensation is proportional to the verifiable loss, based on the item's purchase cost and shipping cost allocation. Depreciation may apply to used items. | The unboxing video is essential to prove the condition and quantity of items received. |
| Severe Damage (Total Loss) | Compensation similar to the lost parcel scenario, provided the damage is comprehensively documented. | Final decision rests with Sugargoo support based on the evidence provided. |
