We will inform you about the expected delivery time of your order in checkout and in your order confirmation email - this time may vary according to the selected items and the shipping method.

*Due the conflict in Russia & Ukraine we cant ship to these places.

There are several reasons why your shipping tracking has not been updated yet:

  • Your order is already packed & ready for pickup, but it has not yet been picked up from our warehouse by the shipping carrier.

Before contacting us, we recommend checking with your neighbors or household members and reviewing your delivery location, as parcels are sometimes left there.

Once you contact us, we will review the case and initiate an investigation with the shipping carrier to locate your parcel. If necessary, we will arrange a reshipment of your order. Please note that proof of delivery provided by the shipping carrier will be reviewed as part of the investigation.

If your package arrives damaged, meaning it was damaged during transport or delivery, please report the issue immediately, and no later than 7 days after delivery, to the local branch of the shipping carrier responsible for your shipment.
