Delivery and Returns
Our mission
All Finnish mainland orders are delivered by courier, which is estimated to be delivered within 1-2 business days from dispatch. International orders are sent via www.posti.fi, then passed to your national postal service - your tracking number can be used on both organizations’ websites. Deliveries in Europe can be expected 2-6 business days from dispatch & deliveries for the rest of the world 5-7 working days from dispatch, but please note that this is subject to any international shipping delays, which are out of our control. You can find out more about our shipping costs here. (https://madwave.eu/site/delivery)
Please note that unfortunately we are unable to do anything to speed up processes such as customs checks. We are always happy to look in to the whereabouts of your parcel, but unfortunately have no control over delivery processes after your order has left us.
We estimate that most orders will be dispatched within 2 business days, however, during busy periods or sales, please be aware that this may take up to an estimated 5 business days. Please see the checkout page for up to date dispatch and delivery estimates.
For your information:
- Our office and warehouse are closed on weekends & public holidays
- We cannot take retail orders by phone
- We are unable to combine orders to reduce postage costs. Please ensure that you have placed all items required in your basket before completing your order
- Your delivery address is taken directly from your order, so please make sure it is correct during check out. We do not see your PayPal details at any stage of ordering, so please do not rely on this address
- If you do enter an incorrect address, please contact us ASAP, as we aim to post orders within 24 hours of receiving them and cannot amend the delivery address after dispatch. We cannot be held responsible for any incorrect addresses provided to us. Please double check that all your details have been filled out correctly before completing your order
Missing orders
If you are Finland based and have not received your order within 5 business days, or 15 business days for international customers, please email info@madwave.eu. Please include your order number, so that we can give you the tracking information for your parcel. Sometimes your order will be waiting at your local post office, with your 'while you were out' card not having reached you. Alternatively, sometimes customs checks can just take a little longer than usual.
