Shipping policy
Please note that after the changes regarding IOSS in 2021 we stopped selling to EU countries via this website. The reason is the high cost of IOSS accounting and the complexity of the regulations.
We do however sell through eBay and Amazon so all our products can be ordered there and we will be happy to send them to you.
Today's world is full of inefficient businesses and shops that take ages to process and dispatch orders.
Have you ever been in a situation where you were left in uncertainty...?
-When will my order be dispatched?
-How long will it take before my order arrives?
-Will I really receive what I ordered? Is this shop worthy of my trust?
In Hobby Heaven the quality of packaging and speed of dispatch is a priority, and if necessary additional human resources are deployed for this purpose. This creates a flexible, customer-centric system in which we try to find the best answers and solutions to all the above questions.
