6.5 For retail customers: Metalclay-Shop is responsible for the shipment and is liable for damages in transit (for consumers). The liability is transferred to the customer upon delivery. In order for Metalclay-Shop to take care of compensation or replacement, the customer has to check the package for obvious damages and check the content upon delivery. If the customer finds that the goods are damaged, then he must immediately report the damage to Metalclay-Shop and follow the instructions. Procrastination in recording the facts may lead to the reversal of the order. This does not limit the legal rights and obligations of the customer.

The shipping company may request personal handout to the customer.
6.7 There are no guaranteed delivery times for standard packages. The post office (and partner companies of the post office such as DHL) considers a package as lost if it is in transit for more than 30 days. After the expiration of this period, the sender can make a request for investigation. Metalclay-Shop offers the possibility of a replacement delivery after this period has expired.
6.8. Undeliverable packages/Return Shipping costs
If a shipment cannot be delivered due to incomplete or incorrect address information provided by the customer, or because the customer did not collect the package from a pickup location designated by the carrier, and the shipment is returned to us, we reserve the right to charge the customer for any return shipping costs incurred.
The customer is responsible for ensuring that the delivery information provided during checkout is accurate and complete, and that shipments can be received at the specified delivery address or collected at the designated pickup point within the carrier’s stated time frame.
