Delivery and return

1.Availability and delivery

Information on this website regarding availability is subject to change without prior notice. We cannot guarantee the constant availability of the products on this site. All orders are subject to current availability at all times.

We will make reasonable efforts to deliver the goods on the agreed date. If no date is specified, we will ship the goods within few days of the day on which your order is placed and accepted by us, unless the product is marked as “Presale” or “Backorder”.

A presale is selling a product or service in advance of when it will be released. This means we are potentially selling products that have not even been made yet. We are collecting orders for an optimum production. Be aware, that products marked “Presale” may have long delivery time.

Backorder is order for a product that is temporary out of stock.

We deliver worldwide. We deliver the goods that you have ordered to the address that you provide us with when you place your order on this site.

In the event of unforeseen circumstances (for example, adverse weather conditions, unpredictable delays due to traffic jams, roadworks, diversions or mechanical malfunctions), we may not be able to deliver your order within these periods and we are not liable for any delay or lack of the articles if the delay is wholly or partly caused by such circumstances. In the event that a delivery does not take place, we will agree an alternative delivery date with you.

We are not responsible for any delay in delivery caused by not being at home when delivery. It is your own responsibility to contact delivery company regarding your order that could not be delivered because you were not at home.
