Question 1

Can I return a package currently at my U.S. address?

Accepted Answer

Yes—we can help you return packages from your U.S. address to the original merchant.

Just note: comGateway is not the seller, so we can’t guarantee your return will be accepted. Please check the merchant’s return policy before starting.

If you’ve already received the package and want to return it from your home country, see this guide on international returns:

How it works:

You request the return.

We help coordinate and ship the package back to the merchant.

If the return is approved and processed, any refunds go directly to you.

If you’ve already received the package and need to return an order, see for international returns.

Charges for U.S. domestic returns:

$4.00 return processing fee for the first package

$2.50 per additional package in the same return request

You’ll also cover:
- Domestic return shipping costs (if applicable)
- Any fees charged by the merchant

If You Bought Directly from the Merchant (and the item is still at your U.S. Address)

1. Check the merchant’s return policy:

Is the item eligible for return or replacement?

Is there a returns window (e.g. 15–60 days)?

Will the refund be to your original payment or store credit?

Will the merchant provide a prepaid return label?

2. Gather required documents from the merchant:

A commercial invoice

A return label

An RMA (return authorization number) if applicable

⚠️ If no return label is provided, you’ll need to cover the U.S. domestic shipping fee.

3. Email us

Let us know what item(s) you want to return. Attach:

A copy of the return label (if available)

RMA number (if provided)

We’ll review and send you:

A shipping quote

Our return processing fee

Payment instructions

4. Make payment

Complete payment via My Account > Payment Requests.

5. Return processing & refund

We’ll process the return in 2 business days.

After return, track the refund with the merchant directly.

comGateway does not manage refunds for direct purchases.

Question 2

What is shipping weight?

Accepted Answer

Shipping weight is determined by actual weight and volumetric weight—whichever is greater.

Actual weight: The physical weight of the package (on a scale)

Volumetric weight: Based on how much space your package takes up

📦 Bulky but lightweight items (like pillows or shoes in big boxes) often get charged by volumetric weight.

Question 3

How do I ensure that I am shopping the U.S. version of the online store?

Accepted Answer

There are two things to look out for:
1. Selecting Store Location or URL to U.S.

When you are at the merchant website, ensure that the store location or URL is set to U.S./ United States

Selecting your local region site may only show limited shopping selections reflect higher international prices.

Many merchants will embed international shipping costs into their international product selection.

2. Always Select US Currency To View Prices

Choose to view shopping in your local currency and you’ll often be shown higher prices. To compensate with currency fluctuations, many merchants quote inflated exchange rates.

Tip: Make sure that what you are shopping for is not a prohibited item for international shipping. For a full listing, please visit Prohibited Items.
