What is the current delivery situation?
As a result of ongoing global supply chain issues, some products may be affected by delivery delays. Most freight and parcel delivery services continue to be confronted by a larger number of parcels than usual which may impact order dispatch and delivery. We are working with our partners on this incredibly dynamic, industry-wide situation. Delivery dates cited in the order/quote should therefore be considered as estimates only as they are subject to the correct and prompt delivery by the manufacturers/suppliers. We are in direct contact with our partners and assure you that we are doing everything we can to get your goods to you as quickly as possible.
Thank you for your understanding!
