If your shipping address is out of the aforementioned counties, you must place an order and contact us at support@gegcomfort.com for the shipping price.

Your payment card will not be charged unless you agree with proposed delivery fee and your order will be cancelled with no additional charge. Please note, that the larger your order the smaller the delivery fee will be. For some large orders the delivery fee can be simply waved.
It usually takes two (2) to ten (10) (and in rare cases, up to twenty (20)) business days for your order to be delivered. However, shipping and delivery times may vary depending on product availability, shipping method and/or delivery address.
IMPORTANT: ETA is just an estimate. Manufacturers do NOT guarantee product availability on said date. Please note that manufacturers may discontinue said item at their sole discretion and/or said item may no longer be available at all.
If your order contains both items that are in and out of stock with the manufacturer at the time of such order, we will, if applicable and/or available, provide you with ETAs for each item that is currently out-of-stock with the manufacturer(s), as well as with two (2) following options on how to proceed with your order:
- You can choose a different item(s) that is/are currently in stock with the manufacturer(s) which is recommended. We will modify your order in our system by adding the different item(s) of your choice that are currently in stock with the manufacturer(s) and removing out-of-stock items from your order subject to your request in writing via e-mail, Or;
- You must order the item(s) currently in stock with the manufacturer. We’ll modify your order in our system subject to your request in writing via e-mail and remove the item(s) currently out of stock with the manufacturer from your current order. Total order amount, including, but not limited to, tax will be modified, respectfully.
NOTE:
If you would like to wait for the non-stock item(s) (although its/their availability is not guaranteed as mentioned in paragraph IMPORTANT above), you might want to place another order for said item(s). If so, your card will be charged immediately to secure your order and ensure the payment (most card issuers revoke authorization to charge a card in 5-7 days from the date of the order). Please note that you will be charged a separate delivery fee if you choose to place another order. Please also note that our contracting delivery companies are not able to:
- pick up and store in-stock items till, and if at all, out-of-stock items become available and then deliver all items in your order to you;
- perform two (2) deliveries for the price of one (1) - i.e. they are NOT able to deliver in-stock part of your order now and the remaining portion of your order when, and if at all, it becomes available, because of extremely high fees associated with pick-up, storage and delivery services.
Please note that after the order is back in stock with manufacturer, it usually takes two (2) to ten (10) (and in rare cases, up to twenty (20)) business days for your order to be delivered.
