Delivery by DHL
If no one is present to accept a DHL delivery, the parcel carrier will leave
a notification card which you can take with you to the branch listed on the
card to pick up your order within 7 business days. Please note that you will
need to show a valid personal ID to pick up the order. Another alternative is

your neighbour to accept the delivery. Finally, you can also give a new
delivery address.

Comfortable Payment Options

account for receipt of transfer will be sent with the packing slip.
For credit card payment, we accept VISA and Euro-Mastercard. When you pay

sent the account information and the invoice amount in a separate email.
If you choose cash on delivery, you pay the invoice amount to your mail

we work with charges a surcharge, which will be added to the invoice.
