If you have questions about the availability of a product that is of your interest, you can send an email through the link "Contact" and get more detailed information about it.

Product labelling

You will get the same product you have seen by photo and description of the website, but it may be the case that the product received is not in the same language you've chosen on the web because the manufacturer does not label the product on that language.

5. SHIPMENT

Delivery Mode

GU Planet is committed to deliver the product in perfect conditions to the address indicated by the customer. In order to optimize the delivery process, it must be one in which delivery can be made during normal business hours.

Track the status of your order

You can see the status of your order through the "History and details of my orders" link on "My Account" page.

Delivery process

We will send you an e-mail confirmation of shipping (when your order will leave our company) and another one with a tracking number. In the case of courier shipments we need someone to receive the package at home. If this is not possible, please provide the address of your work, a relative or a friend, and remember to warn them.

Receipt of your order by courier

You can receive it in the direction you choose: home, work, etc., but never a PO Box or APO / FPO / BFPO military addresses.

The carrier needs a physical address for delivery, along with a phone number.

Send gifts to people in other locations or countries

It is another possibility for you.

During the purchase process, shipment data are requested, and you will have to select a delivery address. Default (same customer data) or add a new shipping address:

Simply add the new address.

In the Canary Islands, Ceuta, Melilla or countries other than Spain, follow the rules defined by customs.

You must create an account with all tax details of the addressee. The order must be filled with the recipient's name and in the currency of the country of delivery.

We also need your confirmation, as well as credit card data and a phone number.

Can you stop a shipment that has already left the GU Planet facilities?

That is not possible. Once an order has already left our factory for delivery to the customer, we have no chance to stop it.

Transport Insurance

All products have a transport insurance included in the price. When the material is received, you must make the corresponding status check, and if deficiencies are found you must make a claim within a period of 24-48 hours (working days) from the receipt thereof. Otherwise, GU Planet declines all responsibility.

Remember that any incident detected on receipt of the goods must be clearly stated, and you must complain to the courier or postal worker at the time of delivery.

If the package is opened or broken, do not admit it, or insurance will not pay the incidence.

Lead Times

All orders destined for the Iberian Peninsula effected before 12:00 pm leave the same day and are delivered within 24 hours. Orders placed after 12:00 pm will leave the next working day, and will be delivered within the next 24 hours (in working days). Orders shipped to Balearic and Canary Islands have a delivery time between 7 and 15 days.

The postal and courier companies guarantee these lead times we hire, and they also rely on our suppliers. However, they are indicative, considering that besides being a service offered by third parties, there are aspects such as inclement weather, delayed communications, traffic, major causes, etc. we can not control. Even so in GU Planet, we do our best to ensure the availability of our products to send them within the specified time period.

Should a delay occur, it does not imply the cancellation of the order or any compensation. We will notify you by email and ship the product as soon as possible. If you have ordered several products, you may have them arriving separately.

You must check the availability of the products before placing your order.

Delivery times depend on the shipment type and stock variants. When the product is in stock ( "immediate" availability) or reach the end of availability recorded in the web ( "3 or 4 days", "2 or 3 weeks," "TBC") the order will be sent immediately and you will receive it the time specified by the chosen shipment mode.

If your order, or part of it, is linked to the "To Be Confirmed" status you will receive an e-mail with the confirmation information when the product is in our hands and is about to be sent. Or another e-mail to alert if it is not possible for us to send the order.

In the latter case, if you had paid the product, the amount will be returned in the form of a voucher.

When an order contains several products with different availability may happen that you receive them in different shipments. This is not going to incur any additional expense if the shipment is destined within Spain or Portugal or the metropolitan United Kingdom.

In the case of an order to any of the other international destinations, it will be sent when all products of this order are available.

You can also choose whether to assume the costs of shipment duplicity, or cancel the product which delays forwarding by having a longer period of availability.

In any case, you will receive periodic e-mails about the state or change of status of your order.

Shipping costs

Any shipment within the Peninsula will cost 5 euros. The cost of shipments to the Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla will depend on the weight of the cart, and the customs retentions must be added to the lead times. For these cases, we recommend to write an email to shop@guplanet.com with the products you want to receive (named as they appear on the web), indicating the zip code of the place, your e-mail and your phone, and we will contact you shortly to give you a quote.

Shipping costs appear properly detailed during the purchase process in "View Order", first as an estimate and then, once you have entered your shipping address and filled the rest of the form, with the actual price. Anyway, you can always see the total order, including transport amount, before process it.

Free Shipping

Shipments to the Iberian Peninsula have no cost provided they are orders over 35 euros. For shipments to the islands, please consult customer service. In the free delivery, we reserve the right to send the orders by the most appropriate means of transport at any time in our sole discretion.

Do you have to pay something to the package delivery?

No.

6. REFUNDS

Deadline to make a return.

We accept product returns within the first 14 days from the date of receipt (provided that the conditions governing the Law 47/2002 of trade management be met).

The products can always return as they are in perfect condition and are returned in their original packaging; after 14 days we cannot accept returns.

Return costs

The customer must bear the cost of returning until the moment GU Planet has made the necessary checking. In the event that the return is justified, the transport costs of the return will be refunded, adding the amount to the coupon payment.
