Payment
Prepayment by bank transfer
Please transfer the total amount of your order to the following account at Stadtsparkasse Wuppertal:
IBAN: DE21 3305 0000 0000 6734 67
BIC: WUPSDE33XXX
Please state the order number from your confirmation e-mail as the reason for payment. Please note that although the amount will be debited directly from your account, it may take a few days for it to be credited to our account. For domestic transfers this is usually 2 bank working days, for transfers from abroad usually 3 days. Your order will be dispatched immediately after receipt of payment, provided the items ordered are in stock.
If your transfer takes longer, this is usually for the following reasons: Public holidays and weekends are not bank working days, no payments are processed on these days. If you submit a transfer slip over the counter, the statutory transfer deadline is one day longer than for electronic and online transfers. The cut-off time for bank transfers varies depending on the bank, but is usually between 14:00 and 18:00. If your transfer arrives after the cut-off time, the order will not be processed until the next day. If you want to make sure that your payment is booked and reaches us on the same day, opt for a quick transfer at your bank's counter or pay by 16:00 with the "Euro Express Transfer online" in the online banking area
Paypal:
At koffer-direkt.de you can pay easily and securely via PayPal. At the end of the order process you will be automatically redirected to PayPal. If you are already a PayPal customer, simply log in to make the payment. Are you not yet a PayPal customer? Then open a PayPal account and confirm the payment to us. As soon as PayPal reports your successful payment to us, your order will be released and processed immediately. If you return an item, the purchase amount will be credited to your PayPal account.
Credit Card:
We accept Master Card, Visa and American Express. The invoice amount will first be reserved on your credit card. Your credit card will not be charged until the item is shipped. In order to offer you maximum security when purchasing, a 3D Secure security request may be made. Please have your required login data ready. If you pay by credit card, your order will be dispatched immediately, provided the items ordered are in stock.
We are often asked whether we also grant a 5% discount when paying by credit card. In contrast to prepayment, however, you as the customer do not pay in advance, as your credit card is only charged when the goods are dispatched. For this reason, we are unfortunately unable to grant a prepayment discount for this payment method
Cash on delivery:
Pay cash on delivery directly upon receipt of the goods. The fee for cash on delivery is 6.50 €. All items in stock will also be shipped immediately when paying cash on delivery.
Refund of the purchase amount
Refunds will be made using the payment method used in the order, usually within 14 days. If you do not receive payment from us within this period, please contact our customer service info@koffer-direkt.de or use our contact form. If you have paid cash on delivery, please provide us with your bank details.

If you have a promotional code or discount code, you can enter this code during the order process. To do this, click on "Enter promotional code" in the shopping cart, type your code into the field and click "Apply". The discount will immediately be included in the total amount.

Repairs usually take 2 - 4 weeks. If it is a defect that you can easily repair yourself, in some cases it is possible to order suitable spare parts for self-assembly from the manufacturer. In the case of defective new goods (unused), the defective item can be returned free of charge with the enclosed returns documents. The description of the defect must be noted on the returns bill.
Transport damage
Despite all care, damage may occur during transportation. In this case, we will of course refund the damaged items free of charge.

The only exception: You must bear the costs of the return shipment if the delivered goods correspond to those ordered and if the price of the item to be returned does not exceed 40 euros or if, in the case of a higher price of the item, you have not yet provided the consideration or a contractually agreed partial payment at the time of the revocation.
