Yes, you can request multiple products at once. Your personal shopper will manage all your requests and ensure each one is handled with care.

8. How long does it take to receive my product?

The time it takes to receive your product depends on the availability and location of the item. Your personal shopper will keep you updated throughout the process and provide an estimated delivery time.

9. What kind of products can you source?

We can source almost any brand or product upon request, from luxury fashion items to rare collectibles. If there is a specific product you are looking for, just let us know.

10. How do you find the products?

Our personal shoppers use their extensive network and expertise to locate the products you request. Once found, we provide you with a quote for the item.

11. What happens after I accept the quote?

Upon accepting the quote, we will issue an invoice. Once the invoice is paid, your personal shopper will purchase the product and provide you with a confirmation and authenticity certificate. The product will then be insured and shipped to your address, with delivery updates provided via a track and trace code.

12. What if the product cannot be found or purchased?

Before sending the invoice, our personal shoppers thoroughly search for the requested product, making it very unlikely that a product cannot be found after the invoice is paid. However, in the rare event that the personal shopper is unable to secure the product after you paid the invoice, you will be notified and the full amount will be refunded.

13. What if I have issues with the product upon delivery?

If there are any issues with the product upon delivery, contact your personal shopper immediately. We will work to resolve the issue promptly, whether it involves a replacement or refund.

14. Are there any additional fees for the service?

Our fees are included in the quote provided for the product. There are no hidden charges; all costs will be communicated clearly during the process.

Because our products within Europe are often priced lower than those outside of Europe, we can offer them, including shopping fees, at prices comparable to what you would pay in your home country, and sometimes even for less.

Please note that our service only incurs a fee when an actual purchase is made. The fee will be specified upfront in the quote, and you are under no obligation to proceed if you do not agree with the fee amount. You will never have to pay any fees upfront; charges apply only after you accept the quote.

15. How can I request a new product?

You can request a new product by contacting your personal shopper directly. They will assist you with your new request and provide you with the necessary details.

If you have not yet been assigned a personal shopper, make sure you register via the get in touch form.
