Shipping Policy

Shipping times

We handle the orders in the order they are received and we deliver within 2-3 days for same-country delivery and 4-5 days for cross-border delivery.

For orders placed on the weekend, or during holidays, please expect the delivery time to be extended as our shipping partner doesn't not pickup goods outside of business hours.

PostNord Collection points

Your goods will be delivered to the PostNord collection point closest to your address and the delivery is considered done when you have receive your goods from the collection point.

Our delivery partner PostNord delivers to collection points up to 7-days a week.

If the goods are not collected from a collection point within their prescribed time frame then PostNord will automatically return them to us. If this occurs, as a buyer you will receive a refund equal to the order amount minus the shipping fees.

Custom shipping needs

If you need to ship to a location other than a Postnord collection point then please contact our support at [email protected] and they can help.
