Age Verification Requirement
At Fume, responsible and lawful distribution of our e-cigarette products is paramount. To ensure compliance with legal regulations and encourage responsible consumption, we've implemented an age verification requirement for all buyers.
- Verification Process: Following a purchase, an email will request a valid ID and credit card details for age verification and fraud protection within a week.
- Non-Compliance: Failure to provide necessary documents within this timeframe will result in order cancellation, accompanied by an explanation.
- Refund Timeline: Refunds for canceled orders may take several days to reflect on your bank statement.
This stringent age verification process aligns with legal regulations, emphasizing responsible product consumption, especially in preventing youth access.

Late Shipments
Considering the high volume of packages handled by USPS, tracking information may not update automatically. While USPS typically provides reliable service, occasional errors and delays might occur. Any issues caused by USPS are not within Fume's responsibility and should be resolved by contacting USPS directly.
Transit times are not guaranteed, and shipping fees are non-refundable through the company.
If delivery confirmation hasn't updated for a few days, customers should not be alarmed. USPS delivery confirmation often updates upon reaching sorting facilities, transit locations, or local post offices. Any delivery concerns should be addressed directly with the local post office.
USPS Customer Service: Call 1-800-ASK-USPS (1-800-275-8777) to file a claim. Hours of operation: Monday - Friday 9 AM - 5 PM ET.
