Important Notice:
Inventory Status: Please check the inventory status on the product page. Our system displays real-time stock for our Munich and Long Beach warehouses. If an item is out of stock in these locations, it will be marked as "Pre-order". You can still place an order for these items.
Pre-order Fulfillment: For "Pre-order" items, we arrange the most efficient logistics solution to ensure you receive your goods as quickly as possible. Your package may be shipped directly from our Shenzhen warehouse. Alternatively, as part of our standard restocking process, we may transport the goods to our Munich or Long Beach warehouse first (typically taking 5-10 business days) before dispatching them to you.
Split Shipments: If your order contains both in-stock and Pre-order items, we will prioritize shipping the in-stock items from the local warehouse immediately. The remaining Pre-order items will be sent to you in a separate shipment once they are ready.
3. International Warehouse
Our products are stored in our Munich, Long Beach, and Shenzhen warehouses to provide more flexible logistics solutions tailored to different regions and customer needs. On each product's description page, we indicate the specific warehouse location to help you better plan your purchase and delivery schedule.
3.1 German Warehouse
For products stored in our warehouse in Munich, we use either Deutsche Post or DHL for shipping, depending on the size of the package. Logistics within Germany are very efficient, with an estimated delivery time of 2-4 business days, ensuring you receive your order quickly and conveniently. For Western EU countries, the estimated delivery time is 4-6 business days. For Eastern EU countries, the estimated delivery time is 6-8 business days.
3.2 US Warehouse
For products stored in our warehouse in Long Beach, we use either USPS or UPS for shipping, depending on the size of the package. Logistics within U.S. are very efficient, with an estimated delivery time of 3-7 business days, ensuring you receive your order quickly and conveniently.
3.3 Chinese Warehouse
For Pre-order items or orders fulfilled directly from our Shenzhen warehouse, we utilize YunExpress for reliable international shipping. Given the complexities of international shipping, the estimated delivery time for these packages is around 10 business days, though this may vary slightly due to customs processes or other uncontrollable factors. Otherwise, products will be restocked to our Munich or US warehouses before final delivery, as detailed in the "Important Notice" above.
