As far as possible and to be fair, we try to calculate our prices according to the recommended retail prices of the manufacturers of our products. There are no hidden costs for any additional fees, let alone a charge for a customer hotline.
All retailers in Germany are free in their pricing as it is regulated by the German market economy. So it may well be that you find products cheaper at another store. We do not make any best price promises or promise to beat every price found on the internet, but if you want to send us a link to the product, we can tell you if we offer you the same price, an even better one, or not.
Please note, this only applies to new goods from an authorized German dealer who has the product in stock and not for clearance sales or dumping offers.
Basically, we always advise our customers to closely look at a “too cheap to be true” shop. Where is the company headquarters? What are the payment and shipping conditions? Is there a customer service? Is there a phone number at all? Does the shop actually ship its goods? Or is your package arriving from Asia? Is it the original product?
Not uncommonly, customers tell us about their experiences with competitors and then order from us again. This just proves to us, our offers cannot be so wrong!
We also offer the option to personally pick up your urn personally. When we have received your payment, we will immediately prepare your order for collection. You will receive an email as soon as your goods are ready. You can pick-up your order at our pet cremation office MO-DO between 09am-5pm, FR 09am-02pm.

This is not a typical online shop, but the presentation of our urn range mainly for our local customers.
With this website we want to make it a little easier for you to choose an urn or an ash container for the burial of your pet. This gives you the option to choose a suitable urn from your home or simply inform yourself in advance together with your family about the possibilities of ash storage.
However, anyone can buy a customized urn from us. Even if your pet was not cremated by us! There is no guarantee that all urns will be available for shipment.
The products offered are sold to consumers in customary domestic quantities only.
This table will help you with the size of the urn. These are general guidelines. We recommend choosing a larger urn for intermediate weights. You can, of course, also distribute the ashes to several vessels, such as a key chain, a small urn for the living room and an urn for burial in your garden.
