Shipping

Shipping & delivery

  • Where do you ship?

    Worldwide. We ship from our Oregon warehouse for North America and a partner in Rotterdam for the EU and UK. Asia-Pacific orders go via Singapore.

  • How long does shipping take?

    US: 2–4 business days standard, next-day for $12 extra. EU/UK: 3–6 business days. APAC: 5–9 business days. We email tracking the moment your label prints.

  • Are duties and taxes included?

    DDP (delivered duty paid) for EU, UK, AU, NZ — what you see at checkout is the final price. DDU elsewhere; the carrier may collect the local VAT on delivery.

  • Do you ship to PO boxes / forwarders?

    PO boxes yes, on standard shipping. Freight forwarders yes, but we can't honor the extended warranty in that case — too easy to lose the chain of custody.

Returns

Returns & exchanges

  • What's the return window?

    30 days from delivery. Item should be unused or barely used — we resell open-box at a discount, so a returned item with cable rash is fine; a returned earbud with earwax is not.

  • Is return shipping free?

    Free for US and Canada. EU/UK: prepaid label, $8 deducted from refund. APAC: buyer ships back at their cost.

  • Can I return an Amazon purchase here?

    Returns of items bought on Amazon go through Amazon's flow — we can't process them on our end. But our support team can usually escalate if Amazon support is being slow.

  • How long until I see the refund?

    We refund the same day we receive the package. Your card statement usually shows it within 3–5 business days; some banks take a week.

Warranty

Warranty

  • What's covered?

    Manufacturing defects, premature wear, and — for buyers who register their purchase with us — accidental damage (one per product). Not covered: intentional damage, water damage on non-IPX products, or modifications.

  • How do I extend my warranty by a year?

    Register your purchase here (works for Amazon orders too — just have the order ID handy).

  • What if my product breaks while I'm abroad?

    Email support with photos and your registration email. We'll express ship a replacement to your local address — covered under the warranty.

Payment

Payment & pricing

  • What payment methods do you accept?

    All major cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Shop Pay, and PayPal. Crypto via a partner — let us know if you want that option.

  • Is my card data stored?

    Never on our servers. Tokenization handled by our payment partner (PCI-DSS Level 1). We only see the last 4 digits.

  • Do you price match?

    If our own Amazon listing is lower than this site's price, yes — we'll refund the difference. We don't match other retailers; their warranty isn't ours.

Product

Product care

  • How should I clean my earphones / earbuds?

    Dry microfiber cloth for the buds. Isopropyl alcohol (70%) on a cotton tip for the mesh — don't soak. Charging case: brush out lint, don't use canned air directly.

  • Battery isn't lasting as long as it used to.

    Lithium cells degrade — expect ~80% capacity at 500 cycles. If you're seeing a sharp drop within the first year, that's a defect; warranty replaces.

  • Are spare parts available?

    Yes for keyboards (switches, keycaps, USB cable), backpacks (zippers, sternum strap), and bottles (lid). Email support@ for a quote — usually $4–18 + shipping.
