Thank you for shopping with unique-vintage.shop.

This Shipping Policy explains how orders placed through unique-vintage.shop are processed, shipped, delivered, tracked, and handled in the event of delays or delivery problems.

We aim to provide a clear and reliable shipping experience for our customers in Germany.

Free Shipping on All Orders

unique-vintage.shop provides free standard shipping on all orders.

There is no minimum purchase amount required to qualify for free standard shipping.

Customers will not be charged a standard shipping fee for orders placed through our website.

Unless otherwise expressly stated during checkout, the standard shipping cost is:

€0.00

Any optional delivery service that may become available in the future will be clearly disclosed before an order is submitted.


1. Estimated Delivery Time

Our estimated delivery timeframe is:

15–20 days

This estimated timeframe applies to standard orders shipped through unique-vintage.shop.

The delivery period begins after the order has been successfully received and accepted for fulfilment.

The 15–20 day timeframe is an estimated delivery period and may occasionally be affected by circumstances outside our reasonable control.

Where applicable mandatory law provides customers with rights in the event of delayed delivery, those rights remain fully unaffected.


2. Order Processing

After an order is successfully placed, we begin preparing it for fulfilment.

Order processing may include:

  • Payment verification

  • Fraud-prevention checks

  • Confirmation of customer information

  • Product allocation

  • Picking and packing

  • Shipping label preparation

  • Transfer of the parcel to the shipping carrier

Customers will normally receive an order confirmation using the email address provided during checkout.

Please review your order confirmation carefully.

If you identify incorrect information, contact us as soon as possible at:

info@unique-vintage.shop


3. Delivery Time Calculation

The stated 15–20 day delivery timeframe represents the estimated period required for standard order processing and transportation under normal operating conditions.

Delivery estimates may be affected by:

  • Order processing volume

  • Carrier schedules

  • Public holidays

  • Severe weather

  • Transportation disruptions

  • Regional delivery conditions

  • Customs or security inspections where applicable

  • Incorrect or incomplete customer information

  • Other circumstances outside our reasonable control

We will make reasonable efforts to deliver orders within the stated timeframe.


4. Free Standard Shipping

All qualifying orders placed directly through unique-vintage.shop receive free standard shipping.

Customers are not required to enter a promotional code to receive free standard delivery.

Free shipping is automatically applied where applicable.

There is no standard delivery charge added to the order total.


5. Shipping Destinations

Our German Shopify store is intended primarily to serve customers in Germany.

Availability of delivery to a particular address depends on the shipping options displayed during checkout.

If our checkout system accepts your delivery address and allows you to complete the order, we will attempt to fulfil the order to that destination.

Certain locations may be unavailable because of:

  • Carrier restrictions

  • Legal restrictions

  • Security concerns

  • Geographic limitations

  • Service availability

  • Other logistical circumstances

If we are unable to deliver an accepted order to the address supplied, we will contact you and handle any required refund in accordance with applicable law.


6. Shipping Address

Customers are responsible for providing a complete and accurate shipping address during checkout.

Please ensure that your shipping details include all information necessary for successful delivery.

This may include:

  • Full recipient name

  • Street name

  • House or building number

  • Apartment or unit information where applicable

  • Postal code

  • City

  • Country

  • Contact information where required for delivery

We strongly recommend reviewing your delivery address before submitting your order.


7. Incorrect Shipping Address

If you realise that you entered an incorrect shipping address, contact us immediately at:

info@unique-vintage.shop

Please include:

  • Your order number

  • Your full name

  • The incorrect address

  • The correct delivery address

We will make reasonable efforts to update the shipping information before fulfilment.

However, once an order has been processed, packed, or transferred to a shipping carrier, changes may no longer be possible.


8. Address Changes After Dispatch

Once a parcel has been shipped, unique-vintage.shop cannot guarantee that the destination address can be changed.

Depending on the carrier and shipment status, an address adjustment may be unavailable.

If you need assistance with an order that has already been dispatched, contact:

info@unique-vintage.shop

as soon as possible.

We will review the available options.


9. Order Confirmation

After placing an order, customers should receive an electronic order confirmation.

Please verify:

  • Product information

  • Quantity

  • Customer name

  • Delivery address

  • Email address

  • Order total

If you do not receive an order confirmation, please check your:

  • Spam folder

  • Junk folder

  • Promotions folder

  • Email filters

You may also contact us at:

info@unique-vintage.shop

for assistance.


10. Shipping Confirmation

Once your order has been prepared and dispatched, you may receive a shipping confirmation email.

Where tracking information is available, the shipping confirmation may contain a tracking number or tracking link.

Tracking availability depends on the carrier and shipping service used for the order.


11. Tracking Your Order

Where tracking is available, customers can use the provided tracking information to monitor delivery progress.

Tracking information may include events such as:

  • Shipment created

  • Parcel accepted

  • In transit

  • Arrived at regional facility

  • Out for delivery

  • Delivered

  • Delivery attempted

Please note that tracking systems are operated by shipping carriers and may not always update in real time.


12. Tracking Information Delays

It is normal for tracking information to require some time before the first carrier scan appears.

A shipping confirmation does not necessarily mean that every tracking event will appear immediately.

Tracking updates may be delayed because of:

  • Carrier processing

  • Weekend schedules

  • Public holidays

  • System delays

  • Transportation transfers

  • Regional scanning procedures

If tracking information remains unavailable for an unusually long period, contact:

info@unique-vintage.shop


13. Multiple Packages

An order containing several products may occasionally be shipped in more than one package.

Where this occurs:

  • Packages may have separate tracking numbers

  • Packages may arrive on different dates

  • Delivery notifications may be sent separately

You will not be charged additional standard shipping fees because an order is divided into multiple shipments.

Standard shipping remains free.


14. Partial Deliveries

If part of your order arrives before the remaining products, this does not necessarily mean that items are missing.

Please review any available shipping confirmation and tracking information.

If all expected parcels have been marked as delivered but products are still missing, contact:

info@unique-vintage.shop

and provide your order number.


15. Delivery Delays

Although our normal estimated delivery period is 15–20 days, delays may occasionally occur.

Possible causes include:

  • High shipping volumes

  • Carrier network disruption

  • Severe weather

  • Transportation problems

  • Public holidays

  • Customs or security checks

  • Labour disruptions

  • Local delivery conditions

  • Technical failures

  • Exceptional events

If your order has not arrived within the expected period, please contact us.

We will review available shipping and tracking information.


16. Customer Rights in the Event of Delay

Nothing in this Shipping Policy removes or restricts mandatory consumer rights relating to delayed delivery.

Where applicable German law allows a consumer to set an additional reasonable period for performance and subsequently terminate the contract if delivery still does not occur, those statutory rights remain unaffected.

Where an additional period is legally unnecessary because of the particular circumstances, statutory rights also remain unaffected.


17. Significant Delivery Delays

If a delivery is significantly delayed, please contact:

info@unique-vintage.shop

Please provide:

  • Order number

  • Customer name

  • Email address used for the order

  • Delivery address

  • Available tracking information

We will review the shipment and, where appropriate, contact the relevant logistics provider or determine the appropriate solution.


18. Lost Packages

If tracking information indicates that a parcel may have been lost in transit, contact us at:

info@unique-vintage.shop

We may investigate the shipment with the relevant shipping provider.

Depending on the circumstances and applicable law, a confirmed lost shipment may result in:

  • Replacement of the goods

  • Reshipment

  • Refund

  • Another legally appropriate remedy

Customers will not be required to surrender mandatory statutory rights because of a carrier-related loss for which the seller remains legally responsible.


19. Package Marked as Delivered but Not Received

If tracking information shows that your package has been delivered but you cannot locate it, please first:

  1. Check the delivery location.

  2. Check around entrances or designated safe delivery areas.

  3. Ask other members of your household.

  4. Check with neighbours where appropriate.

  5. Review any delivery notice left by the carrier.

If you still cannot locate the package, contact:

info@unique-vintage.shop

Please include your order number and tracking information.

We will review the matter and determine the appropriate next steps.


20. Delivery Attempts

A carrier may make one or more delivery attempts depending on its procedures.

If delivery cannot be completed, the carrier may:

  • Attempt delivery again

  • Leave the parcel at an authorised location

  • Send the parcel to a collection point

  • Request additional delivery instructions

  • Return the parcel to the sender

Customers should monitor available tracking information and carrier notices.


21. Collection Points

If a carrier directs a parcel to a collection point, customers should collect it within the carrier's applicable collection period.

Where a parcel is not collected and is subsequently returned, please contact us.

Any refund, redelivery, or additional handling will be determined according to the circumstances and applicable consumer law.


22. Refused Packages

If you wish to cancel or withdraw from an eligible purchase, we recommend contacting us directly rather than simply refusing delivery.

Refusing a package does not necessarily constitute a legally clear declaration of withdrawal.

For withdrawal or cancellation requests, contact:

info@unique-vintage.shop

Your statutory withdrawal rights remain governed by our Return and Refund Policy and applicable law.


23. Returned-to-Sender Packages

A shipment may be returned to sender because of circumstances including:

  • Incomplete delivery information

  • Invalid address

  • Unsuccessful delivery attempts

  • Failure to collect a parcel

  • Carrier restrictions

  • Other delivery problems

If your tracking information indicates that the shipment is being returned, please contact:

info@unique-vintage.shop

We will review the circumstances and inform you of the available options.


24. Damaged Packages

If your parcel arrives visibly damaged, please inspect the contents as soon as reasonably possible.

If a product is damaged, defective, or incomplete, contact us at:

info@unique-vintage.shop

Please include:

  • Your order number

  • Description of the damage

  • Photographs of the product

  • Photographs of the outer package

  • Photographs of internal packaging where relevant

These details may help us evaluate the issue and pursue a carrier investigation where appropriate.


25. Damaged Products

Damage during shipping should be reported as soon as reasonably possible after discovery.

If a product arrives damaged, your statutory rights relating to defective or non-conforming goods remain unaffected.

Depending on the circumstances, a legally appropriate remedy may include:

  • Replacement

  • Repair where appropriate

  • Refund

  • Price reduction

  • Another remedy required by law

Please refer to our Return and Refund Policy for additional information.


26. Incorrect Items

If you receive a product that differs from the product you ordered, contact:

info@unique-vintage.shop

Please provide:

  • Order number

  • Product received

  • Product ordered

  • Clear photographs

We will review the issue and provide appropriate instructions.

Customers will not be required to bear costs that we are legally responsible for when correcting an incorrectly fulfilled order.


27. Missing Items

If products are missing from your package, please first confirm whether your order was divided into multiple shipments.

If all shipments have arrived and an item is still missing, contact:

info@unique-vintage.shop

Please include your order number and information about the missing product.

We will investigate the matter and determine an appropriate resolution.


28. Shipping Risk

For consumer purchases, shipping risk is allocated in accordance with mandatory German consumer sales law.

Nothing in this Shipping Policy is intended to transfer transportation risk to a consumer where that risk legally remains with the seller.

We do not treat delivery to the carrier itself as automatically transferring risk to a consumer where applicable consumer law provides otherwise.


29. Delivery to the Customer

The legal consequences of delivery, including transfer of risk, are determined according to applicable law and the circumstances of the transaction.

Where goods are delivered to the customer or another person legally designated to receive them, the applicable statutory rules govern.


30. Carrier Selection

We may select shipping carriers and logistics providers based on factors such as:

  • Destination

  • Package characteristics

  • Carrier availability

  • Service quality

  • Delivery network

  • Operational requirements

Customers may not always be able to select a specific carrier.

The use of a particular carrier does not affect the free standard shipping policy.


31. Shipping Method

Unless otherwise stated during checkout, orders are shipped using standard delivery services.

Standard shipping is provided free of charge.

The estimated standard delivery time is:

15–20 days


32. No Hidden Standard Shipping Fees

We do not add hidden standard shipping charges after an order has been submitted.

For orders covered by this policy:

Standard Shipping Fee: €0.00

If any optional paid service is offered, its cost will be clearly disclosed before the customer becomes bound by the order.


33. Customs and Cross-Border Processing

Depending on the origin, route, carrier, and destination of a shipment, a package may pass through customs, security, or cross-border processing procedures.

Such procedures may occasionally affect delivery times.

Where charges or obligations legally arise in connection with a transaction, they will be handled in accordance with applicable law and the information presented to the customer before purchase.

Nothing in this policy allows undisclosed mandatory charges to be imposed contrary to consumer protection law.


34. Public Holidays

Shipping and delivery operations may be affected by public holidays.

Possible effects include:

  • Carrier closures

  • Reduced sorting operations

  • Reduced delivery schedules

  • Increased parcel volumes

Orders placed near major public holidays may therefore experience additional transportation time.


35. Severe Weather and Exceptional Events

Delivery networks may occasionally be disrupted by severe or extraordinary circumstances, including:

  • Flooding

  • Snowstorms

  • Extreme weather

  • Transportation closures

  • Natural disasters

  • Major public emergencies

  • Significant infrastructure failures

Where such circumstances occur, we will continue to comply with mandatory consumer rights relating to performance and reimbursement.


36. Force Majeure

Where an extraordinary event genuinely outside our reasonable control prevents or delays performance, we will not be responsible beyond what may lawfully be limited under applicable law.

However, force majeure does not automatically remove a consumer's statutory rights if an order ultimately cannot be fulfilled.

Where reimbursement is legally required, it will be provided.


37. Contact Information for Delivery Problems

For shipping-related assistance, contact:

unique-vintage.shop
Email: info@unique-vintage.shop

Please include your order number whenever possible.

This helps us locate the shipment and review the issue more efficiently.


38. Customer Responsibility

Customers should:

  • Provide accurate shipping information

  • Monitor relevant order communications

  • Review tracking information where available

  • Respond to carrier delivery notices

  • Contact us promptly when a delivery issue is identified

These reasonable responsibilities do not remove statutory rights or transfer seller obligations that cannot legally be transferred.


39. Order Modifications

If you need to modify your order, please contact:

info@unique-vintage.shop

as soon as possible.

Changes may include:

  • Address corrections

  • Product changes

  • Quantity changes

  • Cancellation requests

We cannot guarantee that modifications will be possible after fulfilment has begun.


40. Cancellation Before Shipment

If you wish to request cancellation before dispatch, contact:

info@unique-vintage.shop

as soon as possible.

If the order has not yet entered irreversible fulfilment, we will review whether cancellation can be processed.

If shipment has already occurred, applicable withdrawal and return procedures may instead apply.


41. Statutory Right of Withdrawal

Consumers may have a statutory right of withdrawal for eligible distance-selling purchases.

The withdrawal procedure and applicable deadlines are described in our Return and Refund Policy.

Shipping or delivery does not remove a statutory withdrawal right merely because an order has been dispatched.

For withdrawal requests, contact:

info@unique-vintage.shop


42. Returns After Delivery

Returns are governed by our Return and Refund Policy.

Customers should review that policy before returning an item.

Return procedures may differ depending on whether the return concerns:

  • A change of mind

  • A statutory withdrawal

  • A damaged product

  • A defective product

  • An incorrect product

  • A non-conforming product

Please do not send products to an unconfirmed return address.


43. Refunds for Undeliverable Orders

Where an accepted order cannot ultimately be delivered and the purchase contract is terminated or otherwise requires reimbursement, refunds will be processed in accordance with applicable law.

The refund will generally be issued using the original payment method unless another method is legally permitted and agreed.


44. Fraud Prevention

We may perform reasonable security and fraud-prevention checks before dispatching orders.

In limited cases, an order may be temporarily held while information is reviewed.

Such measures are intended to protect customers and prevent unauthorised transactions.

They will be conducted in accordance with applicable law.


45. Privacy

Personal information used for shipping and delivery is processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

To fulfil an order, necessary delivery information may be provided to:

  • Shipping carriers

  • Logistics providers

  • Fulfilment service providers

  • Relevant technical service providers

Only information reasonably necessary for fulfilment, delivery, security, or applicable legal obligations should be shared.


46. Delivery Communications

Customers may receive service-related messages concerning:

  • Order confirmation

  • Shipping confirmation

  • Tracking

  • Delivery attempts

  • Delivery completion

  • Shipping problems

  • Address issues

  • Return-to-sender status

These messages may be necessary to fulfil the purchase contract and are not necessarily marketing communications.


47. Email Address Accuracy

Please provide an email address that you can access.

Important order and shipping information may be sent to the email address provided during checkout.

If you believe you entered an incorrect email address, contact:

info@unique-vintage.shop


48. Delivery Estimates Are Not a Waiver of Rights

The stated 15–20 day estimated delivery period does not exclude any statutory right a customer may have where delivery is unreasonably or unlawfully delayed.

Mandatory German and European Union consumer protection rules remain unaffected.


49. Liability

Nothing in this Shipping Policy excludes or limits liability where such exclusion or limitation is prohibited by law.

In particular, nothing in this policy limits mandatory rights concerning:

  • Delivery

  • Product conformity

  • Consumer contracts

  • Damages

  • Product liability

  • Intentional misconduct

  • Gross negligence

  • Injury to life, body, or health

Any legally valid limitation of liability is subject to applicable German law.


50. Relationship With Our Terms of Service

This Shipping Policy forms part of the policies applicable to purchases made through unique-vintage.shop.

It should be read together with our Terms of Service.

If there is a conflict between a voluntary policy and mandatory consumer protection law, the mandatory law prevails.


51. Relationship With Our Return and Refund Policy

Our Return and Refund Policy contains additional information about:

  • Withdrawal rights

  • Returns

  • Refunds

  • Damaged goods

  • Defective goods

  • Incorrect items

  • Return shipping

Customers should review both policies where a delivery issue results in a return or refund request.


52. Changes to This Shipping Policy

We may update this Shipping Policy from time to time to reflect changes to:

  • Shipping procedures

  • Carrier arrangements

  • Store operations

  • Legal requirements

  • Shopify functionality

  • Customer service processes

Changes will apply to future transactions as permitted by law.

A policy update will not retrospectively remove mandatory rights attached to an existing purchase.
