What is your return policy?
You can request a return within 14 days from the day you (or your customer) receive the parcel.

Items must be unused, with original tags/packaging.
Can I cancel or modify my order?
We process orders quickly. If your order hasn’t entered processing yet, we’ll try to cancel or update it. Once it’s processing or shipped, changes aren’t guaranteed. Contact us ASAP with your order number. (Our supplier can sometimes cancel while status is “Processing,” but it isn’t assured.)

2) Products & Authenticity
Are your products authentic?
Yes, our supplier sources 100% original goods from brands, licenses, or official distributors; authenticity and provenance are verified, and original tags are attached. (Reseller documentation is maintained by the supplier.)

What size should I order?
Use the size chart page. If you’re between sizes or unsure, message us—brand sizing can vary.
Why is an item out of stock?
Inventory syncs in real time but rare sell-outs can occur. If an item is oversold, we'll provide an alternative or a full refund.
Do you offer gift wrapping?
Not currently for direct-to-customer shipments. (Personalized packaging isn’t offered by our warehouse.)

4) Shipping & Delivery
Where do you ship from?
Orders ship from supplier warehouses across the EU and USA (e.g., Sweden, Italy, Spain, Germany, USA). Your order may ship from different locations depending on stock.
Do you ship worldwide?
Yes—worldwide via UPS, DHL, or FedEx, except Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine.
How long does delivery take?
Handling time: 24–48 hours to dispatch.
Transit time: typically, ~3 business days within the EU and ~5–7 business days outside the EU (destination-dependent).
Which carrier will deliver my order? Can I choose?
We use DHL, UPS, or FedEx. You can pick Economy or Express at checkout where available; the exact carrier is selected by the warehouse and isn’t user selectable.
Will I get a tracking number?
Yes—tracking is emailed when available. Note there can be a short delay after the label is created before tracking activates.
Do you deliver to PO Boxes?
No. Major couriers (DHL/UPS/FedEx) don’t deliver to PO Boxes—please provide a physical street address.
Will my multi-item order arrive together?
Not always. If items come from different warehouses, they’ll ship separately with separate tracking numbers.
What if I miss delivery or don’t collect the parcel?
Couriers attempt delivery 2–3 times or route to a collection point and leave instructions. If a parcel is returned to warehouse due to non-collection, a handling fee (up to €45) may be deducted from the refund.
Is a signature required?
Some services allow/require signature (varies by carrier/service and destination).
5) Duties, Taxes & VAT
Will I be charged customs?
-
Within the EU: no import duties.
-
To/From non-EU countries: the recipient pays any applicable duties/taxes directly to the courier. You can estimate potential DDP charges using the official FedEx estimator.
Is VAT included?
EU orders show VAT where applicable at checkout. Non-EU customers don’t pay EU VAT but may owe local import taxes.

Can I exchange an item?
Stock moves quickly. The fastest way is to place a new order for the size/color you want and return the original.
What if my package/label says a different sender address?
We ship and receive returns via our partner warehouses. The return address provided in your return-label email is the correct one—please do not send returns to our office.
