Customs, Duties & Taxes
International orders are shipped on a Delivery Duties Unpaid basis. This means import duties, taxes, customs fees, brokerage fees and any other local charges are not included at checkout and must be paid by the recipient upon arrival, as determined by the destination country's customs authorities.
The customer is responsible for checking any customs, import or tax requirements that may apply before placing an order.
If an international order is refused, returned to us, delayed, abandoned or made undeliverable due to unpaid customs charges, unpaid import taxes, refusal to accept delivery, incorrect delivery information or failure to provide information required by customs or the delivery provider, any reasonable costs incurred by Preloved Archive will be deducted from your refund, where legally permitted. This includes original shipping costs, return shipping costs, courier fees, customs charges, handling fees or other charges applied by the delivery provider or customs authorities.
Additional Delivery Notes
Delivery times are estimates and may vary depending on destination, customs processing, public holidays or circumstances outside our control.
Please ensure your delivery address is correct at checkout. We are not responsible for delays or failed delivery caused by incorrect or incomplete address details.
