A: We recommend visiting our store to purchase urgently needed items. Alternatively, you can place an online order for pickup and send someone to collect it.
Q: Can I get my order through Pick Me Flash delivery?
A: Yes and No. We cannot arrange Pick Me Flash service directly due to reliability issues, limited available times, and the requirement to hand over orders roadside, which is challenging given our shop's location on the 3rd floor and staff availability during busy times.
However, if you arrange the order and make the payment in advance, you can notify us to prepare the order for Pick Me Flash. Once the order is ready, we will notify you to arrange the pickup. Since we cannot hand over the package roadside, you must ask the Pick Me driver to collect the package from our 3rd-floor shop.
Important Notes:
- We cannot hand over packages after 4 PM due to the storeroom being closed, which means some products may not be available after this time. Additionally, this is a busy period as courier pickups are scheduled after 4 PM.
- Do not arrange for pickup before we confirm that the order is ready. Any premature pickups will be canceled. If the driver refuses to collect the package from the shop, we will cancel the order and provide a refund.
Q: Can I get my order through Uber?
A: No, we cannot comply with Uber terms of service.
Q: I placed an online order but haven't received it yet. When can I expect delivery?
A: Please allow 2 working days for delivery, excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays.
Q: How can I track my order?
A: We use multiple courier services. For island-wide deliveries, we dispatch through PromptXP. Send us your order number, and we will provide the tracking code. For some parts of Colombo and Kaluthara districts, we use Speedline courier service, which does not provide a tracking code, but you can contact the delivery person for delivery details.
