PRODUCT AVAILABILITY
Products may be out-of-stock at official stores in South Korea or without prior notice by the store, but rest assured that the buyers will be refunded in this case. For on-hand items, these will only be available for a 2-day reservation. Failure to pay within 2 days upon reservation will automatically cancel the order and the product will be made available to the next potential buyer.
