APPLETREES may vary the prices of products listed on the website at any time and without any notice but such changes will not apply to products in respect of which you have been sent a shipping confirmation.
Please bear in mind that everything ordered from our web shop is shipped from Sweden. This means that if you live outside the European Union, you can and probably will be charged for tax, duty, import and brokerage fees when receiving the package. This is why we deduct the Swedish VAT from your order in the checkout as we don’t want our customers to pay two different taxes from two different governments. The tax deduction will be shown in the subtotal in the checkout section.
As a customer, you are responsible for payment of any such import taxes and/or duties. We are unable to calculate the exact amount of duties and/or taxes of your package since these charges are imposed directly by your local customs. Please note that APPLETREES don’t take any part of these charges and are out of our control. It might be a good idea to contact your local customs office before placing your order for current charges, so you are not surprised by charges you are not expecting. UPS will invoice you for these charges upon delivery through cash, check or invoice and needs to be paid in order to collect the parcel.
If you refuse to pay the fee for your order, or if we can’t deliver the package due to wrong or faulty information, we will deduct the shipping fee and any other fees, such as added import tax and duty, from your refund since invoices then will be turned to us.

If we are unable to contact you, your order will be automatically cancelled. We are under no obligation to provide goods to you at an incorrect lower price, even once we have sent a shipping confirmation to you, if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could have been recognized by you as an error.
