Upon receipt of your return, we will issue a credit to your card used for the original transaction.  The amount of the credit will be the cost of the items. If the item was a gift, or a purchase receipt is not available, credit will be given as a Star Bazaar gift card. Shipping fees are non-refundable.

If your item arrives damaged, please email Customer Assistance at giftshop@bethbc.edu with a photo of the broken item.

Shipping and Delivery

All our orders are carefully packaged and delivered to an Israel Post shipping center in Jerusalem via a Bethlehem-based Logistics company.

When you place an order, after entering your address there will be some shipping options for you to choose. The time of delivery is based on the zone of your country and calculated accordingly.

Due to the limitations of the Logistics company in Bethlehem, orders are shipped on Sundays and Wednesdays only. Please contact us with a special request if you have a very urgent deadline and we’ll try to help you out! But we cannot guarantee that orders will be shipped any earlier than 2 or 3 days from time of order.

A staff member will contact you within 2 days if unforeseen circumstances might delay the shipment of your item.

Orders can be shipped to only one address. To ship to multiple addresses, you will need to place a separate order for each address.

The Star Bazaar is not responsible for replacing lost packages if Israel Post can verify the package was shipped and left the Israeli borders. We provide an email with a tracking number and approximate time of delivery once the order is processed. Therefore you will also be able to trace your package.

Our office and warehouse are closed on weekends (Saturday and Sunday) and the following holidays:

  • Jan. 1 – New Year’s Day

  • Good Friday and Easter Monday

  • The Second Week of August – College-Wide Summer Vacation

  • Dec. 25-29 – Christmas Holiday

Also expect delays if your shipment coincides with the first and last 3 days of Ramadan. As these dates differ from year to year, please check the Islamic calendar.

Last but not least, in addition expect delays if your shipment coincides with one or more of these Israeli Holidays. As these dates differ from year to year, please check the Jewish calendar.
