If a supplier asks for extra money after receiving your deposit, avoid making another payment until you understand the request. Ask for an itemized explanation, how the amount was calculated, and the contract or order term that supports it. Then compare the request with your quotation, order confirmation, and agreed product and shipping details. Pay an additional charge only after both sides have confirmed any revised terms in writing.

Ask the supplier to identify the reason for the charge and explain its calculation. If the explanation refers to a change, clarify what changed, when it was approved, and whether that change appears in the order record. Keep the discussion in writing so there is a clear record of the request and response.

For crochet hair orders, compare the request with the confirmed texture, length, color, quantity, packaging, and any customization. MEIRHAIR lists customized texture, color, packaging, and private-label options for its human hair crochet extensions. The product is intended for crochet installation and protective hairstyles. These listed options do not, by themselves, establish that a particular extra charge is due; the terms agreed for your order are what matter.

Shipping can also affect the total. The company lists international express, air freight, sea freight, door-to-door shipping for selected regions, and delivery to a customer-appointed freight forwarder. Confirm which method, destination, and shipping assumptions the supplier used, then compare them with the original arrangement.
