Transit, Delivery, and Liability For shipping

Your order will be carefully packed in protective foam, polystyrene, cartons and bubble wrap. In some cases, heavier orders can be shipped on a pallet with a wooden box.

After carrier will pick it up it will start its journey to your door! For international air shipping, it typically takes about 7-15 business days. Sea shipping can take up from 30 to 60 days. For a long-distance shipping transit, times are never guaranteed. There is many factors that can influence the time of delivery. Weather or other situations can affect times as well. As soon freight arrives to your vicinity, it will be managed and delivered by the local carrier division.

If your freight is lost in transit or damaged, we will file a claim with the shipping carrier on your behalf and refund you as soon as we possibly can. Freight claims can take 6-8 weeks for processing.

When your freight arrives, most drivers deliver items to the ground level. It is your duty to verify that the cargo is not damaged in transit, as this will be the only time to check it. If anything is damaged in transit, the carrier company will not honor a claim unless you write on the delivery slip that the order was damaged. You also are kindly asked to take photos of the damage. Please remember all claims need to be written on the delivery slip in all cases.

Customs and import taxes

Buyers are responsible for any customs and import taxes that may apply.
We are not responsible for delays due to customs. We will do our best to provide you with all the necessary documents you would need to process customs procedures. Especially you need to provide filled documents as soon as possible to customs to avoid storage cost after box with items lands in your country.
