All shipping will include tracking numbers and insurance. Shipping to Germany is 5€ and within the EU (all 27 countries) 11-14€ depending on size, weight, etc. Due to brexit; shipping to the UK is 16 Euros up to 2kg (tracked). Ireland is still within that 11-14 euro depending on size and weight. Unfortunately, due to covid 19, Shipping to the US from germany starts at 54 euros. I will not offer SEA shipping as there is no tracking and it will take over a month. This has been going on since September; so it would likely not be beneficial to offer holds. I am unable to ship to Canada as well. I'm generally able to ship within 24 hours, the exception being when i need to ship multiple packages in the same day and i run out of boxes. Payments after 11am on Saturdays, may be dropped of first thing on Monday. I will always provide tracking number within the 24 hours of payment; usually much sooner. I DO NOT charge paypal fees as that is against Paypals TOS~! *I do have a cat. My dresses have been stored away before i got him. I will be careful to also lint roll them and any surface i take photos/pack items on or against.*
