Frequently Asked Questions
How do I pay?
We value safety over speed. We review your request first to make sure it's doable. Then, we send you a formal invoice. We accept Wise (TransferWise) or International Bank Transfer. It's transparent and traceable.
Can you ship batteries or liquids?
Yes. Regular couriers often reject electronics with batteries or cosmetics, but we have special logistics channels in Hong Kong. We can legally ship your laptop, phone, or perfumes to most countries.
What if you can't find my lost item?
We are fair. If we go to the hotel or airport and the item isn't there, we only charge a basic "errand runner fee" to cover our travel costs. You won't pay the full service fee if the result is negative.
