First in line. Locked-in stock. Less chaos. Slightly fewer stress symptoms for Kotsios.

Why Are Pre-Orders Awesome?

You secure the item before it lands. We prepare for battle with suppliers, shipping dates, customs, delays, and the universe’s poor management skills.

🤔 Why do I have to pre-purchase an item?

Pre-order with us and you’re first in line when stock lands.

Unless the universe decides to get creative (manufacturing issues, shortages, Godzilla attacking Tokyo, Aliens invading New York, etc.), your item is locked in. We ship it the same day it arrives—unless the publisher or manufacturer sets a strict release date.

💳 Do you require a prepayment for a pre-purchase item?

Yes. Pre-orders are charged upfront (unless stated otherwise) to secure your item.

For selected products, we may only require up to a 30% deposit.

Why? Because once we commit stock to you, it’s locked in—and cancellations don’t magically undo that on our end.

We do offer flexibility though:

  • 📆 Monthly installments are available for the majority of the items
  • 🧠 We try to make things easier, not harder for you (and for us)

And yes… Kotsios sleeps better at night when orders don’t randomly disappear. Everyone wins.

📉 What if the price changes?

Our pre-order promise is simple:

  • ⬇️ If the price drops → you get the difference refunded
  • ⬆️ If the price goes up → you pay nothing extra

No funny business.

📦 What if I order multiple items, both in stock and pre-purchase?

We split them into separate shipments.

Each item ships as soon as it’s ready.

Shipping fees (if any) are applied per shipment.

Want everything ASAP? → Place separate orders.

📅 Can I group pre-orders by release date?

Yes-but! Keep this in mind:

Release dates are estimates, not promises.

Everything depends on the publisher/manufacturer, and delays do happen.

📊 Are the availability dates accurate?

They’re the best estimates provided by publishers/manufacturers.

But reality check:

  • 🏭 Production delays happen
  • 🚚 Shipping delays happen
  • 🛃 Customs loves chaos

If you want an update, just reach out-our team will give you the real situation or an estimation based on the information they currently have.

⏳ What if I placed a combined order and one of the items is delayed?

If something is delayed over a month, contact us and we’ll work out a solution with you.

📉 What if you are short-shipped and do not receive all of your products from the publisher/manufacturer?

Sometimes manufacturers allocate stock globally and we receive less than expected.

If that happens:

  • 📩 We’ll contact you immediately
  • 🛠️ We’ll sort out the best possible solution

❌ What if I want to cancel a pre-order from your site?

Unfortunately, we cannot cancel a pre-order. A pre-order locks you in and guarantees your shipment. Please do not proceed with any orders unless you are 100% sure that you want the item.

⚠️ What if I still want to cancel my pre-order?

We get it-things change.

  • 🕒 If you placed the order within 14 days → contact us ASAP and we’ll see what can be done
  • 💸 If the order is older than 14 days old → 30% cancellation fee applies on the order’s price.

Please note: Additional fees may apply depending on the manufacturer.

This isn’t us being difficult-it covers handling, allocation, and supplier commitments.

🚀 How fast do you ship pre-orders?

Fast. Like… same-day fast.

Most pre-orders are dispatched the day they arrive.

We know you’re waiting-we don’t sit on your stuff.

🇨🇾 From our warehouse in Cyprus, we dispatch most orders the very same day. Yes, we move fast.

🇪🇺 From our European warehouses, orders ship within 1–2 weeks (sometimes 3, depending on shipment load and general chaos).

⚠️ Please Note: By placing an order (or a pre-order) with GB you are agreeing to all of the above terms and conditions stated in the above policies.

Read them. Respect them. Let Kotsios sleep!
