Your order will be shipped as soon as all items are available.

Orders are processed on working days of the Portuguese national calendar. Orders for delivery in Mainland Portugal processed before 15:00 GMT are usually shipped the same day. When processed after this time, they are shipped the next business day.

Delivery times can be extended in periods of high flow of objects, as is the case of holiday periods, Christmas and Black Friday.
