Article 5 – Delivery

All Smrtboutique vendors deliver worldwide through our freight partners: UPS, DHL, FedEx, and the Postal Service. The average delivery time within Europe is 3–5 business days. For destinations outside Europe, such as North America and Asia, delivery usually takes 5–10 business days.

Please note that both transit times and the ability to deliver may be affected by events of force majeure, including but not limited to natural disasters, wars, armed conflicts, acts of terrorism, strikes, pandemics, government restrictions, or other circumstances beyond our reasonable control. In such cases, Smrtboutique reserves the right to suspend or cancel delivery until conditions allow for safe and lawful shipment.

Invoices for orders delivered by couriers are available to both download and print online from the customer’s individual account area. Once such information has been issued, no changes can be generated.

All vendors offer worldwide shipping with fees starting from $23 per individual warehouse order. Shipping costs are calculated per order and consist of a base fee (economy or express) plus an additional charge per item, which varies depending on the product category.

For stocklot orders benefiting from additional discounts, shipping costs and delivery times are subject to individual confirmation. In such cases, a Smrtboutique customer service representative will contact the customer directly to provide the applicable rates, shipping arrangements, and estimated delivery schedule.

All packages are insured against loss only.

In the event that a parcel is confirmed as lost by the carrier, Smrtboutique will initiate a claim with the shipping provider and, upon approval, will either reship the order at no additional cost or issue a refund.

Insurance does not cover damage to goods, delays in transit, or other circumstances outside our control.

Products are dispatched from Smrtboutique partners within 1-3 business days after the payment for the order has been received and are always subject to checking the regularity of the payment before carrying it out. In the case of orders with payments in advance other than bank transfer and where Smrtboutique has a report of anomalies, such as the mismatch of the name of the person registered and the holder of the credit card, the goods are delivered within 7 working days from when it has been checked for regularity of the payment, or at least from the end of the tests that will be necessary to verify the regularity of payment. In the unlikely event that a product has not been delivered after 10 working days following the order confirmation, customers should send a direct email to INFO@Smrtboutique.com with the subject line "non-delivery", while also stating the order number as well as any other additional information. Having received the email, Smrtboutique will contact the customer within 2 working days in order to resolve the problem, or in some cases offer an explanation for the non-fulfillment of orders.

In the event that a package is unclaimed and subsequently returned to the vendor, the buyer shall be responsible for all return shipping costs as well as any applicable customs charges. The buyer shall be responsible for a fixed fee of €45 / $55 for unclaimed packages. In cases where the actual return shipping or customs charges received by Smrtboutique exceed this amount, Smrtboutique reserves the right to invoice the buyer for the difference once such charges have been confirmed by the carrier. Please note that carriers may take several weeks to issue the final charges. These fees will be invoiced separately, and refunds for the original order will only be processed once such fees have been paid in full.

The same provisions shall apply in cases where a package is returned due to incorrect or incomplete shipping information provided by the buyer, including but not limited to errors in the recipient’s name or address.

Customs operations are handled by Smrtboutique in cooperation with the customs agency of the selected freight provider. For shipments outside the US, all additional customs duties, taxes, and clearance fees shall be borne by the buyer.
