FAQ
Shipping & Delivery
Where is my package?
We will inform you about the expected delivery time of your order in the order overview and in your order confirmation via email - however, this time may vary depending on the selected items and the shipping method.
Why hasn't my order been shipped yet?
Please allow us some time to prepare your order for shipment. We usually ship orders within 48 hours, but some orders may take a little longer.
Can I change when and how my package is delivered?
Yes, that's possible! Our shipping partners DHL and DHL Express will always send you an email notification about your package. You can use this email to specify your preferred delivery location, such as a parcel shop, or to change the delivery date.
What happens if I'm not there for the first delivery attempt?
If the delivery driver can't find you at home, you can use the tracking information to see if your package was left with a neighbor or at a branch, for example. In some cases, another delivery attempt will be made.
My package should have already arrived!
Please check the tracking information to see if the package has been delivered to a neighbor. If it's not with a neighbor and the shipping status hasn't changed in 5 days, please contact us – you'll find our contact options below.
What shipping options are available?
- Standard shipping to Germany is free for customers with a customer account for orders over €25 and is climate-friendly thanks to DHL GoGreen.
Shipping costs may apply outside of Germany. We will inform you about these costs at checkout. We will also inform you about the estimated delivery time of your order in the order summary and in your order confirmation email – however, this time may vary depending on the selected items and shipping method.
Delivery is always made from Monday to Saturday via our shipping partner DHL. When you complete your order, we will show you the estimated timeframe for your package to arrive.
Where can I have my order delivered?

payment
Why can't I select my preferred payment method?
Possible reasons why a payment method is not available
- The delivery and billing addresses do not match. If you wish to have your order delivered to a DHL Packstation, this may, in rare cases, also prevent payment by invoice.
- The combination of name and address could not be found. This can happen due to typos, changes of address, marriage, or a change of municipality.
- There is still an outstanding amount for another order – which sometimes simply means that a transfer has not yet been credited to our account or a return has not yet been processed.
- Like other platforms and shops, we use independent credit agencies to assess your creditworthiness. In some cases, their data may prevent you from paying by invoice when placing your order.
- Unfortunately, due to deadlines, we cannot offer payment by invoice for pre-orders.
We reserve the right not to offer a certain payment method for some orders.
What can I do if my payment method is unavailable?
Check if there are any outstanding orders and pay them. If your shipping and billing addresses don't match, you can adjust them before completing your order.
Please understand that our customer service has no way of activating a payment option for you if it is not offered to you initially.
Similarly, our customer service representatives cannot see why you cannot order using your preferred payment method. Here too, the protection of your data is our top priority.
We check which payment methods we can offer with each order. Therefore, your preferred payment method may be available again for your next order.
If not all payment methods are offered to you, all our other services and benefits are still available to you.
When will my return be refunded?
Your refund will always be credited according to the payment method you chose when placing your order.
When will I receive confirmation of my return?
Once we receive your return, we will check what you have sent back. Please allow us up to 2 business days to confirm your return.
The purchase amount will be credited as follows, depending on the payment method:
Credit card:
The credit will be refunded to the credit card account we charged. You can see the refund on your next credit card statement. It's possible that the refund date on the statement will match the original payment date.
PayPal:
The credit will be applied to the PayPal account you used. You can decide within PayPal whether the amount is held in your PayPal account or transferred back to your bank account.
Klarna invoice or instant purchase:
Your refund will be forwarded by us to Klarna and then processed via your original payment method.
How do I get a copy of my invoice?
You will receive your invoice in your order confirmation sent by email.
