Shop facts

Who runs this site?

Trust seals on this page

A genuine trust seal is clickable and leads to the provider's certificate – a test the seal providers name themselves. We run it automatically on every check.

• Trusted Shops – leads to the provider

We check the embedding, not the content of the certificate: a linked seal may be expired or issued for a different domain.

Warning signals

• Social media presence No social media profiles are linked, or the linked profiles are unreachable - there is therefore no independently verifiable trace of the provider online.

In the shop's favour

• PayPal support PayPal is named as a payment method - a payment route with buyer protection is therefore available, through which money can be reclaimed if goods are not delivered.
• Trusted Shops The domain is listed as a certified shop in the Trusted Shops member directory - the provider has passed an external audit and is listed there by name.
• DNS configuration The domain has a complete email configuration with MX and SPF records - the shop can therefore actually send and receive email under its own address.
• VAT ID (VIES) The VAT identification number given in the legal notice is valid according to the EU VIES system and matches the company details.
• External reputation feeds The external security databases queried hold no warning about this domain - neither for malware nor for phishing.
• Trust seal check The embedded trust seal is officially linked or confirmed by the provider - it can therefore be traced back to the issuing body.

Further checks

• Imprint The shop has a legal notice with reachable contact details (email or phone) - in a dispute there is a named contact to address a complaint to.
• Server location The site's server is located in Frankfurt am Main, DE and therefore within the EU/US area - a legal area in which claims against the operator can be enforced if necessary.
• SSL certificate The connection is encrypted; the current certificate was issued on 30 June 2026. Encryption says nothing about the operator's trustworthiness, though: a fake shop gets it free of charge too.
• Fake shop lists The domain does not appear on any of the fake shop warning lists checked - warning lists lag behind newly created shops, however, so this is no clean bill of health.
• Security headers The server sets most of the common protections. Present: enforced encryption (HSTS), protection against embedding in other sites (X-Frame-Options) and protection against file type confusion (X-Content-Type-Options). Not set: a content security policy (CSP). On its own this says nothing about the provider's trustworthiness.
• Legal pages Terms and conditions, right of withdrawal and privacy policy are linked on the site - the mandatory distance selling information is therefore present.
• Payment methods The shop names PayPal, credit card, Sofort and purchase on invoice as payment options - so you do not have to pay in advance to order here.
• Redirects The address does not redirect to a third-party domain - the shop is actually operated under the address you opened.
• Contact data plausibility The contact details given are plausible: the email address belongs to the shop domain and the phone number is correctly formatted - fake shops mostly use free webmail addresses here.
• IP neighborhood No known fake shops are recorded in the domain's IP neighbourhood - no fraud network known to us runs on the same server.

What we could not verify

These checks returned no result – for example because the site blocked our request or a registry was unreachable. This is explicitly NOT a suspicion: it only means we lack the basis for a statement here.
