Customs and Duties

UK, EU, and US customers: No additional import duties or taxes will be charged

All other international destinations: You may be responsible for additional import duties and taxes, which will be collected by our courier at delivery. These charges are determined by your local customs authority and are not included in our shipping costs.
Customs Documentation
We handle all necessary export documentation. However, you're responsible for ensuring items can be legally imported to your destination country. From time to time, our courier may request additional information such as ID verification, SSN (in the US), or other documentation required by local customs authorities.
Special Circumstances
Pre-Order Items
For pre-order items, customers who make advance payments receive priority. If pre-ordered items become unavailable due to production issues, we'll notify you by email and refund your payment within 30 days.
Questions requiring management confirmation:
-
What are typical pre-order delivery timeframes?
-
How do we handle backorders when stock is temporarily unavailable?
Force Majeure Delays
If delivery is delayed by events outside our control (such as severe weather, strikes, or other extraordinary circumstances), we'll contact you promptly and work to minimize the impact. You can cancel and receive a full refund if delays become substantial.
Peak Season Considerations
Busy Periods
During peak seasons and holidays, there may be delays to our usual processing times. We work hard to dispatch all orders as quickly as possible and will keep you informed of any expected delays that may affect your delivery.
Restricted Locations
We reserve the right to refuse delivery to locations we consider unsafe or where shipping restrictions apply. Our courier partners may also refuse delivery in certain circumstances.
