Shipment

Black Center S.L. will not ship any products until the financial department in Black Center S.L. has checked that the payment has been made.

Delivery will be completed when the transport agency has delivered the products to the customer and the proof of delivery document has been signed. It is the responsibility of the customer to check the products when delivered and specify any justified claims on the delivery document.

Black Center S.L. will ship the products by the means it sees fit in order to fulfill its commitments.

Shipment Fees

Shipment fees will vary depending on the selected delivery area. However, Black Center S.L. RESERVES THE RIGHT TO ASK FOR AN ADDITIONAL AMOUNT for orders that are oversized or particularly heavy. In this case, if the customer does not agree with the shipment fee indicated, we will refund the amount paid and the purchase order will be cancelled. Black Center S.L. will be exempt or any other commitment or obligation towards the customer.

Delivery time

Generally speaking, a purchase order is shipped (leaves our offices towards destination) the following working day for orders whose proof of payment has been sent before 12:00 am. If the proof of payment is sent after this time, the order will be shipped after two working days. The delivery in destination will depend on the delivery area. In mainland Spain, the order will arrive the following working day from shipment. Shipments to Balearic Islands could take 2 or 3 more days. For the rest of Europe, delivery time is approximately 1 week. However, these times are estimated and may vary for reasons outside the company’s control. Black Center S.L. does not commit to any delivery time since the shipment process depends on third parties. For those orders to “pick up in the shop”, we advise you to wait for the message that will be sent to the mobile number registered in the customer’s file before collection.

Out of stock

On our website, we only sell products that are on stock either in our own warehouse or any other entity, manufacturer or wholesaler. This allows us to deliver the product in the timeframe indicated for delivery however web synchronization with our warehouse is not instant. Furthermore, from the time in which a customer registers a purchase order in the website, to the time in which we receive and process the proof of payment, we could run out of a product. This is why we could have isolated cases in which we can not serve a product because it is out of stock.

If a product happens to be out of stock, Black Center S.L. will inform the customer, cancel the order and return the payment immediately with a bank transfer.

In these cases, we will always refund the customer and the order will be cancelled. IT WILL NOT BE POSSIBLE TO MAINTAIN THE PRICE OF AN OUT OF STOCK PRODUCT AND THEN SHIP IT WHEN ON STOCK since the price of the product may vary depending on our purchase price.

Customers can return a product within 7 working days after delivery, if they meet the following conditions:
