This time can increase due to big number of orders in line before yours. For each order we send notification with expected shipping date, but this date can be changed, because we can find, that moulds worn out and we need to make new.

When your order will be shipped, there will be notification with tracking number of the package and link on tracking.

Shipping cost depends on destination and weight of package. Shipping cost is calculated automatically during checkout procedure.

Important! If your package not arrived to you after 2 weeks for Europe or 3-4 weeks for U.S. (in November, December and first half of January transit time increases), you should call to your local post office and try to find parcel using e-mailed tracking number.
