Tracking & Status
How can I track my delivery?

Once your payment has been successfully completed, you will receive an order confirmation by email. Alternatively, you can find the shipment tracking in your account overview.

Orders placed by manual bank transfer are only packed and shipped after payment has been received, which is why shipment tracking is also only available after payment has been received.

I haven't received a shipping confirmation — what should I do?

If you paid by manual bank transfer, your order will only be shipped once payment has been received. If nothing happens for an extended period, please contact our customer service.

My order is coming in multiple packages—is that normal?

Yes, that can happen — but only with orders of two or more sets.

Special cases
My package was delivered damaged – what should I do?

In this case, please take a photo immediately and contact us directly so we can handle the matter promptly.

We accept no responsibility for incidents resulting from delivery to neighbors or to a drop-off location you selected yourself.

My parcel is marked as "delivered," but I haven't received it.

Please check whether the package was left with a neighbor or placed in a safe location. If it cannot be found, please contact us and we will then start an investigation with DHL.

What happens in the event of delivery delays?

Delivery delays are rare. If the tracking does not update for several days, please contact our customer service team – we’ll take care of it.

🔁 Returns & Refunds

Returns
How do I return items?

Please do not simply return any item. Send us a formal notice of cancellation in advance by email or letter.

Do I have to pay for the return shipping myself?

The costs of a return shipment must be borne by the customer, and safe shipping must be ensured by packing the parcel well.

What conditions apply to a return?

You only have to pay for any loss in value of the goods if this loss in value is due to handling by you that is not necessary to check the condition, properties, and functionality of the goods.

Money-Back Guarantee
How does the 30-day money-back guarantee work?

You must contact us in advance. A return sent back independently without prior arrangement will not be accepted and will not be refunded. After the returned set has been inspected, a refund of the full purchase price will be issued within 7 days.

When will I receive my refund?

Within 7 days of receiving and successfully inspecting your return, we will refund you the full purchase price.

Special cases
I opened a set — can I still return it?

No, unfortunately, sets that have already been opened cannot be returned.

If you no longer have any use for the set, we would be happy to donate it to our partner school here in Niederneisen - simply contact customer service.

Can I exchange it for another set?

For exchange requests for unopened sets, please contact our customer service team – we’re flexible.

How does the refund process work?

Refunds are issued via the same payment method used for the order. The amount will be paid in full once the returned set has been received.
