Frequently Asked Questions

USING OUR WEBSITE

I know what I want, how do I find a product quickly?

You can use our search bar by typing key words, the name of the product or even the product code (SKU). As soon as you enter more than 3 letters you will start seing a few relevant results. If you hit the enter key after you entered the search term, you will land on the search results page that shows all relevant products.

Does your website have wish-lists or shopping lists?

Yes. Once logged in you can create shopping lists by going to "My account" then click "Shopping List" to create your first list. From here you can create new lists or view/edit existing lists. Once you have created your list, you may browse for products and add them to the respective list for future reference.

Are your product reviews from real people?

Absolutelty, all reviews you can see on our website come from real people that previously bought from us or have used our products beforehand. We promise there are no fake reviews here and you can trust what other shoppers are saying.

PRODUCT AVAILABILITY AND BACKORDERS

The product I would like to buy is out of stock. Can I still buy it?

We like things to be transparent and therefore do not offer the option to buy products that we don't physically stock. This prevents disappointment and frustration. However you may sign up with your email to get a notification once a product is back in stock.

If you are currently logged in, simply go to the products detail page then click the button "Notify me when available". If you are visting as a guest or are not logged in, please provide your email address then click the button to get notified once a product is back in stock.

I am looking for a product that I can't find on your website.

We are always extending our range and are trying to source more environmentally friendly products that fit our eco-ethics.

You might know of products that we are not aware of and we encourage you to let us know about them. Simply get in touch and let us know what they are and we'll try to add them to our website.

Which payment methods to you accept?

You can pay for your order by:

  • Credit Card. Your payment is securely processed offsite by STRIPE - We don't store any of your card details on our site.

  • Afterpay. Allows you to buy now and pay in four instalments over 6 weeks. No interest. Use online and in-store. No fees when you pay on-time.
  • PayPal. Can securely process your Credit Card details or you may quickly check out if you already have an existing PayPal account (not required).

Can I change my order after it's been placed and paid for?

Sorry, in general this is not possible. However if you used Credit Card payments through STRIPE and you call us and ask very nicely, we might be able to amend your order :)
