Delivery and payment

Shipping, Delivery & Payment

Carefully packed, reliably shipped – so your music arrives sounding just as it should.

A record forgives no carelessness: a crushed sleeve, a warped pressing or a hairline crack in a CD case can spoil the anticipation before the needle even drops. That’s why we pack every order by hand – in high-quality record mailer boxes and with a collector’s eye.

On this page you’ll find everything about your order: what shipping costs, when it’s free, how long delivery takes and how you can pay.

Our extra service
More than just shipping – your records in the best hands

With us, every record gets something special for its journey. And if you’d like to give your collection even more care, simply add our inner sleeve exchange or professional record cleaning to your order.

Free
New PE outer sleeve

05 · Shipping & Packaging
How your order gets to you
Dispatch
Monday to Friday until approx. 12 noon
Germany
In-stock items usually reach you within one working day (Germany)
Protection
Every parcel insured & shipped in a record mailer box

We ship Monday to Friday until approx. 12 noon. Within Germany, in-stock items usually reach you within one working day – if ordered before 12 noon, possibly as early as the next day. Smaller shipments sent as Kleinpaket may in rare cases take up to 3 working days.

Every record receives a new PE outer sleeve – included in the price, of course. All parcels are insured and travel in high-quality record mailer boxes. In the interest of environmental protection and conserving resources, as a high-volume shipper we reuse incoming supplier packaging, provided it is in perfect condition.

Orders containing items not in stock are generally only shipped once all items have arrived with us. If delays become apparent, we send a partial delivery – after 4 weeks at the latest, always free of shipping charges.
