RETURN & REFUND POLICY
RETURN & REFUND POLICY
Last Updated: July 2026
Welcome to Daebak Bias.
At Daebak Bias, we are committed to providing authentic K-pop albums, official merchandise, collectibles, and exceptional customer service for K-pop fans in the United States.
Please read this Return & Refund Policy carefully before placing your order.
⚠️ IMPORTANT – UNBOXING VIDEO
We strongly recommend recording a complete, unedited unboxing video when opening your package.
An unboxing video is the fastest and most reliable way for Daebak Bias to verify and resolve claims involving damaged, incorrect, or missing items.
While we may request additional information if no video is available, providing an unboxing video significantly improves our ability to investigate and assist you.
For the best documentation, please begin recording before opening the shipping box and continue recording until every item has been fully unpacked and inspected.
Your video should clearly show:
- The unopened shipping box
- The shipping label
- The complete unboxing process
- Every item received
- Any damaged, incorrect, or missing items
Please note that claims submitted without sufficient supporting evidence, including an unboxing video when available, may require additional review and could result in delays or denial of the claim.
BEFORE OPENING YOUR PRODUCTS
Before opening or removing the factory seal, please verify that you have received:
- The correct item(s)
- The correct version(s)
- The correct quantity
- Any applicable Pre-Order Benefits (POBs)
If a product appears visibly damaged, defective, or incorrect, please do not open, unwrap, or remove the factory seal before contacting Daebak Bias.
Opening or unsealing a product before contacting us may affect your eligibility for a return or exchange.

if they are no longer available from the supplier.
LUCKY DRAW EVENTS
Lucky Draw items and event-exclusive photocards are randomly distributed.

PHOTOCARDS
Official photocards may contain minor manufacturing imperfections.
Examples include:

The following conditions are considered normal manufacturing or shipping characteristics and are not considered defects:
· Minor scratches
· Small dents
· Slight discoloration
· Minor printing imperfections
· Light corner wear

The outer box, sleeve, or protective case is intended to protect the product during shipping and is not considered part of the collectible item unless otherwise specified by the manufacturer.
SHIPPING DAMAGE
DaebakBias carefully packages every order to help minimize shipping damage.
However, packages may experience normal wear during transit.
Minor cosmetic damage to the shipping box or outer packaging alone does not automatically qualify for a return or exchange.

· Photos of the shipping box
· Photos of the damaged item
