Not completely happy with your purchase? You have the right to return an item within 14 days, without giving any reason (right of withdrawal). The withdrawal period is counted from the day of the delivery of the last good(s) in your order. Within this period you may view, rate and examine the item(s) as you might do in store. From the moment you have indicated that you want to return your goods, you must send the item(s) within 14 days.

You can only return an item if:

• The article is complete.
• The article, as far as reasonably possible, is packed in its original packaging with attached price tag and/or label(s).
• The article is undamaged and unused.

It isn’t possible to place an order by phone. If you are having problems completing your online order, you can call our customer service, so one of our employees can assist you. This can be done by calling +31 85 043 0576. We can be reached by telephone on weekdays from 10 am to 5 pm.

We are probably still processing your order. This can take up to 60 minutes after you have placed your order. If you haven’t received a confirmation by then and the order confirmation isn’t in the spam filter of your inbox, please contact our customer service.

Please contact our customer service as soon as possible. If your order hasn’t been processed yet, we’ll change the address. If an order has already been processed or shipped, we will contact DPD to ask if they can return the package to us. Unfortunately, this isn’t always possible. In that case, our customer service will discuss the situation with you in order to find an appropriate solution.

Unfortunately, our stock count is not always accurate. If you read on your packing slip that an item from your order is not available, there is insufficient or no stock of the product. We will refund the purchase amount of the item that is not available as soon as possible.

As soon as you have placed your order, we work hard to prepare it for shipment as quickly as possible. During peak periods it can happen that the processing in our warehouse takes a little longer.

When your order has been given to our carrier DPD, you will receive a Track & Trace and your order will usually be delivered within 3 working days. In the table below you will find an overview of the estimated delivery times per country.

Have you ordered something big or heavy like a Christmas tree? Then it will be delivered separately from the other items of your order.

Delivery may take a little longer during peak periods, promotional periods and the Sale.

We have reduced our shipping costs to several countries, including Ireland, France, Italy and Denmark.

Please note that shipping time is an estimate. We aim to meet these shipping times but sometimes it can take a little longer than you are used to. 

You will receive an e-mail with a Track & Trace code so that you can track the shipment as soon as your order has been given to DPD. Have you not yet received Track & Trace? Then we have not yet handed your parcel over DPD.

Please note that it may take a while (12 to 36 hours) before you can trace your parcel with the Track & Trace that you have received from DPD.

Unfortunately, we cannot provide updates on orders. As soon as we receive orders, they are processed as quickly as possible. Your order will have the status ''processing'' in your account, as long as your parcel is being processed in our warehouse. For questions about current delivery times, we refer you to our frequently asked question: ''How long does it take to deliver my order?'' You will receive a Track & Trace as soon as your order has been submitted to DPD.

Unfortunately, we cannot tell when we expect to be able to ship your order, because this depends to all kinds of factors: how quickly we can pick your order and prepare it for shipment, what time the packages will be picked up by the delivery service and much more. Therefore, we cannot promise to ship your order before or on a specific date. For questions about current delivery times, please refer to our frequently asked question: "How long will it take to deliver my order?" You will receive a Track & Trace as soon as your order has been handed over to DPD.

We rely on the shipping services network of DPD.

Please check the status of your order through the Track & Trace code. You’ll receive a Track & Trace code as soon as your order is on its way. Enter your shipment number and zipcode on the website of DHL to check the current status of your package. Does your package have the status ‘delivered’, but you didn’t receive it? Then your order was probably delivered to your neighbours. 

Please contact our customer service if you can’t see the status of your order, and if more than 5 working days have passed. You can reach us by emailing customerservice@itsallaboutchristmas.com or by calling +31 85 043 0576. We are available by telephone on weekdays from 10 am to 5 pm.

We are sorry, but at the moment we are not able to send any order to remote locations or isolated islands. If you have any doubts that your home area will be part of these locations, please make contact with our customer service.

Every autumn we open pop-up stores where the real Christmas enthusiast can enjoy the atmosphere of Christmas and can get inspired. The number of pop-up stores has grown considerably since the start in 2006. In the first year, we started with just one store as an experiment, but in ten years It's all about Christmas has grown to a chain of twelve temporary stores in the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany every year. Unfortunately, we don’t have shops in the UK, but if you’re visiting the Netherlands (or Belgium or Germany) please visit us! On this page, you’ll find an overview of the locations of our Christmas shops.

It’s possible that a certain article is not in stock. Items that are sold out after October will not be replenished during the season. Please note that not every item will return to our product range. Unfortunately, it isn’t possible yet to send you an automatic notification by e-mail.

Not every item from our webshop is available in our It's all about Christmas stores. The range depends on the size of the store. Not all stores have enough space to offer all items from our wide range. And in addition to this it happens that some special offers are only available in stores.
