How do I know if a product is in stock?

For the products listed in our shop the exact stock quantities are displayed in the productpages. If we sell a product the system will automatically adjust the stock quantity.

In case of new products which are still available at Ducati this means “available on backorder” will be shown. In case of products which are no longer available through Ducati as well as in case of used parts the advertisement will be taken from the website when it’s sold out.

Please note that our stock will always be bigger than visible, so in case you’re looking for anything specific please feel free to get in touch.

What does "Available on backorder" mean?

Popular items may sell out quickly and temporarily be on backorder. This means that the items are currently out of stock. You can still order the article, and we will then order the article at our supplier if we didn’t already.

Ordering an item that is currently on back order is a worry-free way to ensure that you will be first in line for the new inventory and that the item which you ordered will be sent out to you as soon as we receive it.

In general the delay on backordered articles is 5 – 10 business days. If the foreseen delay is more than 3 weeks, then we will contact you to see what we can do.

  • Orders containing backordered items are shipped when all articles are (back) in stock.
  • You will be notified via a shipment confirmation email (and a tracking number) once your back ordered items have shipped.
  • You will not need to contact customer support, or do anything to follow up on the back ordered item. We will take care of it for you from here on out.
  • We will do our best to estimate when back ordered items are expected to ship, and inform you the best we can, however this information is only an estimation, subject to change, and shipping dates are not guaranteed.

How do I know that my order is successfully placed?

If your order is successful, you will receive an immediate automated e-mail to confirm the order.

Where is my order?

Make sure you have received a confirmation email after placing the order. If you did, you can track and trace your order by clicking on the tracking number in the shipping confirmation / order complete email.
Other possibilities are checking the order status in our system by logging in to “my account” or the order status / tracking page: here you are.

Do I need to set up an account to place an order?

No, an account is not required to place an order. You can check-out as a Guest, but setting up an account provides easy access to your order as well as quicker check-out next time.

Can I place orders by phone?

Yes, we accept orders by phone. However for both our safety we will always sent an order confirmation / invoice and ask you to confirm the order.

Can I change / cancel my order?

Changing or cancelling an order is sometimes possible if the order isn’t processed or shipped yet and your order doesn’t include parts specifically ordered on your request including (excess) parts available on backorder). Please contact through email in case you want to change your order so we can assist and help you the best possible.

I didn't receive a confirmation email.

Unfortunately we can’t avoid our emails end up in the spam folder sometimes. Please check this folder.

Do you ship marked as a "Gift" or lower the amount on the invoice for customs reasons?

No, we are a legitimate company and (have to) comply to international accounting rules. So please don’t ask, or add a comment to lower the invoiced amount on the customs invoice / airway bill or ask us to ship / mark the parcel to be a “gift”.

If we ourselves don’t offer anything at no costs / for “free” the goods aren’t gifts in the transaction / shipment from us to you. Lowering the amount is also no option as, besides it’s illegal, we only ship insured and non existing value (the lowered amount) can’t be insured.

From a more formal / legal / fiscal point of view: Please be aware asking anything mentioned above is asking us to commit ia. tax fraud and is strictly illegal or in fact considered a crime in pretty much all countries.

We are a transparent company and any comments you add during checkout are declared on the invoices and visible for those same customs you (as the importer) need to have the goods being allowed to enter the country.

Do you ship to military addresses and PO Boxes?

How do I track my package?

You can track your order by clicking on the tracking number in the shipping confirmation / order complete email. Another possibility to check the status, in our system, is by logging in to “my account”.

How much tax will I have to pay?

Within the EU

Prices of new parts include the local / national VAT according the EU distance selling regulations.

Unless otherwise stated, all used parts are margin scheme goods according EU tax legislation. This means no VAT is deductible.

VAT in case of export outside EU (including the UK after Brexit as wel as Norway after introducing VOEC)

According to EU tax legislation we won’t charge VAT in case of export outside the EU*. In case of new parts the sales-price is  adjusted to “VAT exempt / 0% VAT” using geolocation.

We cannot assume responsibility or be held liable for any additional charges, as for example customs fees, customs clearance costs and / or local taxes. These additional costs are the responsibility of the buyer / recipient as we do not have control over these government-imposed costs and cannot estimate what these are or will be. So please contact your local customs office for information as they vary significantly.

Can I add items to an existing order?

Depends on the order status, so please contact us asap.

What is the estimated shipping time for orders within the EU?

When you live in the EU we would recommend you to use the offered standard shipping service as our experience gives very timely delivery without the high costs of express shipment. Some examples:

Country approx. transit time*/**
Austria 4 – 5 days
Belgium 2 – 3 days
Denmark 5 – 7 days
France 3 – 5 days
Germany 2 – 4 days
Hungary 4 – 6 days
Ireland 4 – 7 days
Italy 4 – 7 days
Netherlands The 1 – 2 days
Slovakia 4 – 6 days
Spain 4 – 6 days
Sweden 4 – 6 days
Tsjech 4 – 6 days
NON EU United Kingdom 4 – 6 days excl. customs clearance time
NON EU Norway 6 – 8 days excl. customs clearance time

* Time in business days from dispatch (excl. islands as for example Balearic isl. / Corsica / Sicilia) +/- 2 days extra
**Time in business days from dispatch (excl. customs clearance time in case of Norway / Russia and other non EU member states)

If you’re in a hurry, that enthusiast about our product(s) or just need the part extremely fast, please feel free to use the offered express services. By using express priority shipment, you have the choice receiving your item ASAP; literally in this case.

Note: shipment transit times or expected delivery dates are always estimates (or so called ETA’s) based on “normal” conditions and with all parts of your order in stock. We ship complete orders, so if there is any part or quantity which isn’t in stock (visible by “available on backorder” in the product-, cart- & checkoutpages) these eta’s can’t be met and do not apply. On your request we can split shipments, though be aware there will be extra shipping costs for the extra shipment.

What is the estimated shipping time on worldwide orders?

Orders outside Europe shipped per Express Economy / Expedited will be delivered within 7 business days from dispatch all over the world.

Should you prefer Express Priority / Saver shipment, which is even faster at only minor additional costs, you’re free to choose this option.

On request from our customers we again offer standard tracked (International) priority and insured shipment on worldwide orders. This shipping service is sometimes cheaper (depending on the exact delivery address), but through this service we do not have any influence on customs clearance processes. Please also note that your local customs have up to 30 business days to clear incoming international goods in addition to the normal shipping time. This varies per country and is local legislation, so please contact your local customs for details of the local / national import process(es).

If you’re in a hurry, that enthusiast about our product(s) or just need the part extremely fast, please feel free to use the offered express services. By using express priority shipment, you have the choice receiving your item ASAP; literally in this case.

Note: in case of bulky or heavy items order processing time will be 48 hours.

Do I need to sign for my order?
