Ordering How do I order?
It must be easy to shop online. We have many years of experience with e-commerce and of course we want our customers to easily find what they are looking for. Once you find what you want, place it in the basket with one click, and then proceed to the checkout in order to safely carry out the payment and thus begin your delivery.
At the checkout point, the total cost for the goods and the shipping is clearly displayed. You always have the option of cancelling the purchase before you make the payment. Do you keep all items in stock?
Our ambition is that all the items displayed in our shop will be in stock. It is clearly shown whether the item is in stock or not; if it is not you will see when it is due to arrive.
A few items are not kept in stock but are available on demand. This means that we will order the item on your behalf from our supplier or designated distributor. Note, however, that for these extraneous orders you do not have any right of return and may not receive any refund. Payment What payment options do I have?
Payment may be done by Credit Card or PayPal. For some countries a Direct Bank Payment is also available. In Sweden we also accept Swish as a payment method.
We use Secure payments by DIBS. You are able to pay directly with the cards: VISA, MasterCard, and American Express. For some countries DIBS also enables additional local payment methods such as: a direct bank transfer or additional cards. Accepted payment methods will be listed at the checkout point when you choose your country.
