Orders & Shipping
Where is my order?
In general, it takes 5-7 business days for our warehouse to process, pack and prepare an order for shipping. Once the order has shipped, you’ll receive a shipping confirmation to the email address you provided at checkout. Please be sure to check your spam/junk folders if you have not received that email.
The time it takes for your order to reach the final destination will depend on where the order is being delivered and the shipping option chosen at checkout. You can check the shipping page for more detailed information. If you chose a shipping option that provides tracking updates, you can track your parcel using the link in your shipping confirmation email. We can issue a replacement or refund (minus shipping fees) if your tracked order has no updates in 4 weeks or if your untracked order does not arrive within 6 weeks. Please note there may be additional delays depending on the carrier or conditions along transit route.
If you think your order may have been lost in transit, contact us (kurzgesagt@dftba.com) and we’ll be happy to help!
Our replacement policy covers lost packages up to 3 months after the order date. For replacements to be sent in the case of a lost package, we will need the shipping address confirmed so we know there were no issues in the address that would cause the package to be returned or incorrectly delivered. If the address needs to be amended or changed, this will require a second shipping fee to be paid.
How do I cancel an order?
Send us an email (kurzgesagt@dftba.com) with the order confirmation number as soon as you can.
As long as the order has not shipped yet, we can cancel it for a full refund.
Ho do I change my shipping address?
Send us an email (kurzgesagt@dftba.com) including the order confirmation number and the new address to expedite the process. Please note we're not able to make any changes to your address after your order has shipped.
A part of my order was missing or damaged, what can I do?
If your order arrives and something is wrong, simply email us at kurzgesagt@dftba.com and we can get you sorted. In the email, please include the original order number, and let us know exactly which item(s) were missing or damaged.
I received the wrong item, what can I do?
Email us as soon as you notice the wrong item. To speed up the process, please include your order number which can be found in your order confirmation email or listed on the packing slip. Let us know which item(s) you expected to receive and please describe or send pictures of the wrong item(s).
We will set up a reshipment for the correct item, so you will not have to reorder.

How do Bundle deals work?
Please note: not all bundle discounts are immediately shown within the cart, but they will be applied at checkout. In this case, a coupon code will be applied – but if you remove this coupon code, it will also remove the discount!
Why am I being charged additional fees on my order?
When ordering from outside of the EU you may be charged additional taxes and handling fees when importing goods.
We are unable to ship your merchandise as a gift, as we need to fill out each customs form correctly. If we don't fill out the forms properly, we risk having the shipment returned to us or being prohibited from shipping to that country.

Why are the prices in the EU store higher than in the US store?
We’re always trying to make sure you get the best deal and fair prices in both of our shops. In our EU shop, we factor VAT into the price of each item which is part of the reason prices are lower in the US shop. Please note that if you are ordering from our US shop to Europe, you will still need to pay VAT and any other associated service fees before you will be able to collect your order.
We try to manufacture and source as many of our products from within the EU as possible. This also contributes to our costs but we’re confident you are getting a quality product!
