You can withdraw your order within 14 days of delivery without stating reasons.

If the contract is cancelled, we are obliged to return all received payments, including shipping costs (with the exception of additional costs due to choosing other types of shipping than low-cost standard shipping suggested by us), immediately and not later than 14 days upon receipt of the withdrawal. For reimbursement, we will use the same form of payment applied to the original transaction unless explicitly agreed otherwise. On no account will additional costs arise. We are entitled to refuse reimbursement before receipt of the articles or evidence of reshipment is presented, whichever may happen first.

The articles have to be returned immediately, in any case not later than 14 days after noticing us of your withdrawal.

This deadline is met if the articles are shipped before the expiry of 14 days. Insofar you are executing your right of withdrawal, you have to bear the expenses of reshipment.
