Equithink Shipping, Delivery & Returns FAQ

In the checkout, simply enter your address and the system will automatically show:

  • whether we ship to your location

  • the correct shipping cost

  • and the correct price for your country

By default, our webshop displays prices including Dutch VAT.
When you enter your address:

  • Within the EU: the VAT will automatically adjust to the VAT rate of your own country

  • Outside the EU: prices will automatically update to VAT-free export prices
    (please be aware that your country may charge import duties or local VAT upon arrival)

If your country is not yet available in the checkout, feel free to send us an email at mail@equithink.nl — if possible, we will gladly add it.

We ship to several countries and are continuously expanding our shipping options.
Enter your address at checkout to see whether we already ship to your location.

On the product pages you will first see prices including Dutch VAT (as required for EU customers).

When you enter your address during checkout, the system automatically:

  • calculates the correct shipping costs for your location

  • shows the correct price for your country in your basket

More specifically:

  • Within the EU: the VAT will automatically adjust to the VAT rate of your own country

  • Outside the EU: prices will automatically update to VAT-free export prices

Please be aware that your country may still charge import duties or local VAT when the parcel arrives. These fees are settled directly with the carrier and are not included in your order total.

⚠️ Note / Disclaimer

These delivery times are only estimates. We cannot guarantee them — delays may occur due to customs clearance, holiday peaks, remote destinations, or postal service conditions.

No. Return shipping costs are paid by the customer, and the original shipping costs are not refunded when you return a product because you changed your mind.

Our puzzles are large, handmade and quite heavy, so shipping them is simply expensive. As a small company with a big mission, we can’t absorb these costs the way large online retailers do. We prefer to keep our prices honest and transparent, and invest our resources into creating strong, safe puzzles and developing new enrichment options for horses.

  1. Please inform us by email that you wish to return your order (or part of it).
    Send an email to mail@equithink.nl.
  2. Send the product back to us complete, unused, undamaged and properly packed.
    Until we have received the product, it remains your responsibility, so please take this into account when choosing the shipping method.
  3. As soon as the product has arrived and has been checked, we will refund your purchase amount.

If your order has not been shipped yet, we can still change the shipping address for you.
Please email us as soon as possible at mail@equithink.nl with your order number and the correct address.
Once the parcel has been dispatched, we can no longer modify the destination.

If you’ve received the wrong item or something isn’t working as it should, please send us an email as soon as you notice the issue. We’ll help you sort it out:
📧 mail@equithink.nl

Send us an email at mail@equithink.nl within 14 days of receiving your order, let us know what you want to return, and we will guide you through the steps.

Please note that both the return shipping costs and the original shipping costs are paid by the customer when you return a product because you changed your mind.

We pack our puzzles securely using strong, protective materials to make sure they arrive safely — even over long distances.
Whenever possible, we use reused or recycled packaging materials to reduce waste.
Despite using sustainable materials, we always ensure that your puzzle is properly protected during transport.

Ja. All orders are shipped with a track & trace number, so you can follow your package from the moment it leaves our workshop until it arrives at your address.
You will receive the tracking information by email as soon as your order has been dispatched.

Delivery times may vary depending on your country and local postal services. If your package is delayed, we recommend checking the tracking information first — it usually shows the latest update.

If the tracking hasn’t moved for several days, or if something seems wrong, feel free to email us at mail@equithink.nl.
We will gladly look into it and help you contact the carrier if needed.

If you live outside the EU, your country may charge local VAT, customs duties or import fees when your parcel arrives.
These costs are not included in your order total and are paid directly to the carrier or customs office.
At checkout you will automatically see the correct VAT status for your region (no VAT for customers outside the EU).

We aim to ship all in-stock items within 2–3 working days, and international delivery times depend on the destination and local postal services.
If you need your order urgently, you can always email us — we’re happy to see what’s possible.
