Shipping Time

We do all shipments by Swiss Post Service
PRIORITY

We common do shipments Monday till Wednesday only. Incoming orders from Thursday till Sunday night, will usually shipped out on subsequent Monday. Summarized: we always ship latest 3 business days after payment is confirmed and cleared.

After shipment is made, we will send you an email with the tracking/insurance number, so the package could be tracked through Swiss Post Web Site.
(At this moment PRIORITY service is to most countries track able till Swiss border, Border of destination, and final when buyer sign for it)

From the date of dispatch we do not have any influence in time required the parcel arrives at your end.


With just a few exceptions, the most PRIORITY parcels arrives at final destination around the globe within 4 up to 20 business days. While the Post service common works excellent, most delays are caused by lazy and inefficient custom services.
The only solution would be to use services like URGENT/FEDEX/UPS, but cost wise this services would cause 2-5 times the cost of offered PRIORITY service.
