How to read these times

  • Business days are Monday to Friday. Weekends and public holidays in the production country and your country do not count.
  • The clock starts when your order is confirmed and payment is received, not when you click "buy".
  • Times are estimates, not guaranteed delivery dates. Real delivery can be earlier or later.
  • Times are for one item. If you order several items or different product types, they can arrive separately, each on its own timeline.
  • Destination not listed? Ask us before you order. We can only ship to places available at checkout.

From order to your wall

1

Order confirmed

We email you a confirmation. Your order goes to the print partner closest to your address.

2

Made for you

Your piece is printed, framed or stretched and checked before it is packed.

3

On its way

A carrier collects it. You receive a tracking link by email.

4

Delivered

The carrier delivers to the address you gave at checkout.

Shipping policy

This policy applies to every order. By placing an order you confirm you have read it. The version on this page when you order is the one that applies to your order.

Where we ship

We ship to Europe, the United Kingdom, the United States, Australia, Japan, Singapore, China, Thailand and the Middle East. We only deliver to destinations you can select at checkout. We cannot deliver to every address in every country, for example some remote areas.

Shipping cost

The shipping cost for your order is shown at checkout before you pay. The total you see at checkout is what you pay, apart from any import charges described below.

Making your order

Every piece is made to order after you buy, by a print partner near your address. Production time is already included in the delivery times above. We do not offer rush production.

Production starts within hours of your order. Once it has started we generally cannot change or cancel the order, including the address. If you need a change, contact us straight away. We will try, but we cannot promise it is possible.

Tracking & proof of delivery

When your order ships we email you a tracking link. Tracking usually starts to update 24–48 hours after dispatch, once the carrier has scanned the parcel. Carriers include DHL, FedEx and Royal Mail, or a regional carrier, depending on the route.

When the carrier's tracking shows your parcel as delivered to the address you gave at checkout, your order counts as delivered. If tracking says delivered and you have not received it, please check with neighbours, your building reception and any safe place first. Then contact us and we will open a trace with the carrier.

Shipping address

You are responsible for giving a complete and correct address and phone number at checkout. Please check it before you confirm.

Carriers deliver framed prints and canvases to a street address where someone can receive the parcel. PO boxes are not supported for these items.

For China and Japan, carriers require the address in the local language and characters. Please enter it that way.

If a parcel comes back because the address was wrong or incomplete, or because it was refused or not collected, we will contact you. We cannot take responsibility for the cost of sending it again.

Orders sent in more than one parcel

Items in one order can be made at different sites and sent separately. Each parcel has its own tracking number and may arrive on a different day.

Customs, duties & taxes

Most orders are made in or near the country they are delivered to. In that case they normally do not cross a border and no customs charges apply.

Sometimes an order has to be made in a different country, for example to keep it in stock or to meet a delivery date. If your parcel crosses a border, your local customs authority may charge import duty, VAT or other taxes and handling fees. These are set by customs, not by us. They are not included in the price you pay us and the recipient is responsible for paying them. We cannot tell you the amount in advance.

Please do not refuse a parcel because of import charges. Contact us first.

Delays

Weather, customs checks, carrier problems, strikes, public holidays, peak seasons such as the run-up to Christmas, and other events outside our control can slow a parcel down. If we learn that your order will be late, we will tell you by email.

If your order has not arrived by the end of the estimated time, check your tracking link, then contact us. We will look into it with the print partner and the carrier.

Lost, damaged or wrong items

If your parcel is lost, or your piece arrives damaged or is not what you ordered, contact us. For damage or a wrong item, please email us within 14 days of delivery with photos of the piece and the outer packaging. The sooner you tell us, the faster we can help. This does not take away your legal rights.

What we offer for these cases is set out in our Refund Policy.

Returns & refunds

This page covers shipping only. Returns, cancellations, refunds and your right to withdraw from a purchase are in our Refund Policy.

Your personal data

To deliver your order we share your name, address, phone number and email with our print partner and the carrier. They may use them only to make and deliver your order. See our Privacy Policy for details.

Your rights by region

Nothing on this page limits the rights you have under the consumer laws of your country. Where the law gives you more than this policy, the law applies.

European Union, EEA and United Kingdom

  • By law we must deliver your order within 30 days of your order unless we agree a different time with you.
  • If your order is late, contact us. If it still cannot be delivered after we have had a reasonable extra time to do so, you can cancel it and get your money back.
  • We are responsible for your order until it is delivered into your hands or to the person you named to receive it.
  • Your right to withdraw from a purchase, and your legal guarantee for goods that are faulty or not as described, are explained in our Refund Policy.
  • If we cannot solve a problem together, you can contact your national consumer protection authority.

United States

  • If we cannot ship your order within the time we have told you, we will email you. You can then accept the delay or cancel the order for a full refund.
  • Sales tax, where it applies, is shown at checkout.

Australia

  • Our goods come with guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law that cannot be excluded. Nothing on this page limits them.

Japan, Singapore, China, Thailand and the Middle East

  • The mandatory consumer protection laws of your country continue to apply.
  • Import rules and charges in your country are set by your local customs authority.

Questions

Can I get my order faster?

Every piece is custom-made, so we do not offer rush production or an express option. The time shown for your destination is the time it takes.

Why do framed prints and canvases take longer than posters?

Framed prints and canvases have extra steps: mounting, framing or stretching, and a final check before packing. Posters are printed and packed, so they are usually the quickest.

My tracking has not moved. Is something wrong?

Not necessarily. Tracking often takes 24–48 hours to start after dispatch, and can pause while a parcel crosses a border. If it has not moved for several days after the estimated time, contact us.

Tracking says delivered, but I have not received it.

Check with neighbours, your building reception and any safe place around your address. If you still cannot find it, contact us and we will trace it with the carrier.

Can I change my address after ordering?

Contact us as soon as possible. Production starts within hours, and after that we generally cannot change the address. We cannot promise a change before you ask.

Will I pay import duties or VAT?

Only if your parcel crosses a border. Most orders are made near you and do not. If duties apply, they are charged by your customs authority and are your responsibility as the recipient. See "Customs, duties & taxes" above.

Something is wrong with my order. Who do I contact?

Contact us first. We can usually solve delivery problems faster directly than through your bank or card provider, and we reply as quickly as we can.

Still have a question?

Write to us with your order number and we will help.
