If it goes wrong
The window is 120 hours, and there is a door at the end of it
This page is the least cheerful on the site and the most useful. All of it comes from the official return policy, the return and exchange guarantee page and the disclaimers, read on 6 August 2026. The single most important sentence in any of them: whether a return or exchange request can be successfully processed depends on whether the seller agrees.

The clock starts at Stored, not at delivery
The official wording: within 5 days from the Received in Warehouse status, counting from the moment it is marked as stored, reaching 120 hours constitutes 5 days, you can apply for a return or exchange without reason from your personal page. Requests after that may not be accepted.
The guarantee page adds that the count starts at the next full hour after the status changes. So the window opens while the item is still in China, long before anything reaches you, and the inspection photos exist by then. Looking at them promptly is the whole point.
A separate, gentler rule covers the earlier stage: if the order has not been shipped yet, asking to cancel costs nothing.

Who pays, in each situation
Straight from the return policy and the return and exchange guarantee page. The service fee figure is the one published on the guarantee page.
| Situation | Who carries the shipping | What else applies |
|---|---|---|
| The item has a quality problem | The seller carries the round trip once you raise the request. | KameyMall says it verifies with the seller, agrees a solution and notifies you. |
| No quality problem, you changed your mind | You carry the leg to the seller and the leg back. | Plus a service fee. All users get the first return or exchange of each calendar month with the fee waived; the published figure after that is 5 RMB for a return. |
| Exchange rather than return | You carry the leg to the seller and two legs from the seller. | Same monthly free allowance and the same published service fee. |
| Not yet shipped | Nothing to carry. | The policy states there are no charges for products that have not been shipped. |
| The seller offered free shipping | You still pay back the first dispatch. | Stated explicitly on the guarantee page. |
| There was shipping insurance | Possibly nobody. | The official explanation is that compensation depends on the return rate of the Taobao account used, and that the purchasing account has a relatively high return rate, so the insurer may not pay. |

What KameyMall states it does not cover
The Disclaimers of Shopping Agent page is ten numbered clauses. It is not hidden and it is not vague, and reading it once is worth more than any review you will find. These are the six that change how you should pick a find.
- Sensitive goods are removed. Essential oil, care solution, lubricants, batteries and glue are taken out to protect the delivery.
- Customs risk sits with you. Imitation brands, large volumes of liquid or powder and electrical products may be restricted, and KameyMall states it is not responsible for customs clearance or the related legal responsibility.
- No professional inspection. Quality, authenticity and completeness are not checked, and defective products are not compensated.
- Limited inspection. If the real product link cannot be opened, size, model, colour and quantity cannot be checked at all, only appearance. A mismatch goes back to the seller.
- Fragile items. Ceramics, glass and irregular shapes are guaranteed complete before dispatch, but transit damage classed as fragile sits with you.
- Deposit orders. A Taobao deposit order cannot be cancelled once placed, and if the balance is not cleared in time the deposit is not returned.

The storage clock is the one people forget
Once items are Stored you decide when to consolidate and ship, and official first-use guidance gives the agent storage period as 90 days.
The order status list describes what happens at the end of it. Expired means the storage period ran out or you chose to abandon the item, the system processes it as overdue, and the official wording adds that in this case KameyMall will have the ownership of it.
That is a reasonable rule for a warehouse to have. It is also a rule that quietly converts a hesitation into a loss, so if you are waiting to add one more thing to a haul, put the date somewhere you will see it.

Most of the situations above are resolved by asking one specific party. The help page sorts the common questions by who can actually answer them, because sending a sizing question to customer service and a shipping question to a seller is how a week disappears.
