In this case, the delivery time that applies to the item in your order with the longest delivery time applies to the consignment as a whole.

If you choose the method pickup, you will be informed by e-mail when the goods are ready for collection at our local shop.

  • Pay Later (invoice): The payment term to Klarna is 30 days from the dispatch of the goods. 
  • Pay in 3: Customers can securely and instantly pay using their VISA or Mastercard credit/debit card or via direct debit in three interest‑free instalments over three months. Buyers can spread the cost over time without interest.
  • Financing (Slice it): Financing allows customers to spread the payments for their purchase over up to 24 months. Payment in the online shop works as follows: 1. To pay with Klarna Financing, customers select Klarna Slice it or Klarna Financing at checkout. 2. Customers paying in instalments with Klarna for the first time will be asked to create a Klarna account. They must provide the following information: name, billing address, date of birth, phone number, email address. 3. Existing customers simply log in using their email address or phone number and date of birth. 4. When new customers apply for a Klarna account and “Flexible Instalments”, Klarna performs a credit check in the background. 5. After submitting the order, buyers receive an email with a payment link. The order amount is displayed in the overall balance of the Klarna account. 6.
