Shipping and Handling
When will my order be shipped?
-
Book order shipping information: orders are shipped out within 1-3 days, on business days only. Business days are Monday to Friday. Please take this into account when placing orders over the weekend.
-
Print order processing timeline: each print is crafted with precision and care, which takes time. From production to delivery, we estimate a lead time of approximately two to three weeks. This allows us to maintain the highest standards of quality while ensuring your print arrives safely and securely.
Has my order been successful?
- Within just 30 minutes of placing your order, an order confirmation email will arrive in your inbox. In case you can't find it, don't forget to check your spam or junk mail folder. Alternatively, you can log in to your account to check the order status.
How long does delivery take?
- The Netherlands and Europe enjoy 1-2 business days for delivery, while the USA, Canada, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the World experience delivery times of 3-6 business days. Keep in mind that transit times may vary depending on the delivery location, especially for remote areas.
Do I need to sign for my order?
- Absolutely! We require proof of delivery to ensure your purchase reaches you safely.
How much are the shipping costs?
-
You can find the exact shipping cost for your order in the shopping cart. Shipping costs are weight-based and calculated accordingly.
Tip: To make the most out of your shipping costs, consider adding more items to your cart. Our shipping rates are weight-based, so sometimes it's cheaper to ship a bit more without much added cost. For example, moving from 0.99kg (2.2 lbs) to 2.99kg (6.6 lbs) only increases shipping by €5.00—perfect for that extra item you've been eyeing.
What packaging is used?
- Your items are packaged with care. Books are placed in special book boxes, while prints and originals are first wrapped in plastic sleeves and then secured in sturdy cardboard envelopes or postal tubes.
