  • Need it faster, or shipping a high-value order? Commercial express (DHL / FedEx / UPS) is arranged on request — email [email protected] before ordering and we will quote it for your parcel.
  • Delivery times are estimates and may be affected by customs clearance, local holidays, or peak seasons.

4. Shipping Costs

Shipping is charged by the actual weight of your parcel, not by a flat worldwide rate and not baked into the product price. A 150 g multimeter and a 3 kg weather station cost us very differently to ship, so each destination carries its own weight-banded tariff — and you only pay for the parcel in front of you.

  • Chargeable weight is the greater of your parcel's actual weight and its volumetric weight (length × width × height ÷ 8000) — exactly how our carrier bills us.
  • Rate basis: the carrier's published tariff for battery-certified registered air service with door-to-door tracking, converted to USD. A small handling buffer for currency movement is included.
  • No minimum order and no free-shipping threshold: light orders no longer subsidise heavy ones, and nothing is padded into the unit price.
  • The exact amount for your basket — including multi-item combined weight — is calculated and shown at checkout before you pay.

Rates above are for one parcel. Multi-item orders are charged on the combined weight, which is usually cheaper than shipping the items separately. Heavy items (weather stations, bench instruments) can cost more to ship than their size suggests — please check the checkout total before paying, and contact us if you would like us to look for a better routing.

5. Shipment Tracking

Once your order has shipped, we will email you the tracking number. You can track your package anytime on our Track My Order page or at 17track.net.

6. Customs, Duties & Taxes

  • European Union: VAT is collected at checkout and remitted via our IOSS registration — no additional charges on delivery for orders up to €150.
  • United Kingdom: In compliance with UK customs regulations for B2C imports, the declared value of each order must be under £135 (approx. $168). Orders above this threshold cannot be shipped with our standard service — please contact us before ordering and we will arrange commercial express shipping or split your order.
  • United States: In compliance with US customs regulations, the declared value of each shipment must be under $248 (per recipient per day). Import charges are prepaid by us — no additional charges on delivery. If your order exceeds this threshold, please contact us before ordering and we will arrange commercial express shipping or split your order.
  • Other destinations: Any customs duties or import taxes imposed by the destination country are the responsibility of the customer.
Declared-value thresholds: United Kingdom < £135 · United States < $248 · European Union ≤ €150. Orders above these limits require commercial express shipping — reach out to [email protected] and we will take care of it.

  • Germany & France: P.O. Box addresses are not accepted.
  • Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Israel: Some addresses are served via local pickup points instead of home delivery; you will be notified by SMS/email when your package is ready for collection.

8. Incorrect Shipping Addresses

Customers are responsible for providing the correct shipping address. If a package is returned to us due to an incorrect or incomplete address, the customer will be responsible for any return shipping fees or additional costs to reship the item.
