General FAQ

Can I request a specific vinyl version or a product not listed on your website? — Products & Product information:

Unfortunately, we are unable to manually add or order specific items that are not currently displayed on our website. Our catalog is directly linked to our global network of suppliers, and as soon as an item becomes available from them, it will automatically appear in our shop.

Tip: If you are looking for an item that is currently marked as 'Not available', we recommend using our 'Get Notified' feature on the product page. Simply enter your email address, and we will automatically send you an update the moment the item becomes available from our suppliers again.

Are all vinyl, CDs, merch and other items sold at iMusic brand new? — Products & Product information:

Yes, all items on our site are brand new, unused, and direct from our distributors.

How do I check if an item is currently in stock and ready to ship? — Products & Product information:

You can easily see the current availability of any product directly on its page. Look for the green label located just below the price and buy button.

'In stock' (Green label): This means the item is physically present in our warehouse in Aarhus (Denmark) and is ready for immediate dispatch.

What does the "Expected to be ready for shipping" status mean for my order? — Products & Product information:

Hvis et produkt er markeret med et specifikt datointerval (f.eks. "Forventes klar til afsendelse [Dato - Dato]"), betyder det, at varen i øjeblikket ikke ligger på vores hylde i Aarhus, men er tilgængelig hos en af vores mange globale leverandører.

Sådan fungerer det:
Når du afgiver din ordre, bestiller vi straks varen hjem fra leverandøren specifikt til dig. De angivne datoer er vores bedste estimat for, hvor lang tid det tager for varen at nå frem til vores lager, blive behandlet og blive klar til afsendelse til dig.

Vær opmærksom på:

▪ Estimeret, ikke garanteret: Disse tidsrammer er baseret på normale leveringstider fra vores partnere. Indimellem kan international transport lægge et par ekstra dage til.
▪ Samlet levering: Hvis din ordre indeholder flere varer med forskellige leveringstider, venter vi, til alt er ankommet til vores lager, før vi sender din samlede ordre i én pakke.
▪ Ændringer i tilgængelighed: I sjældne tilfælde kan en leverandør melde en vare 'udsolgt', efter vi har lagt bestillingen. Hvis det sker, giver vi dig besked via e-mail hurtigst muligt med en opdatering eller mulighed for refundering.

How can I identify the specific vinyl pressing or version before I order? — Products & Product information:

We strive to include specific details (color, weight, limited edition version) directly under the album title and artist name. All articles are listed with an EAN code, you can use to verify the version on e.g. Discogs. If there is no specific information regarding the edition, colour, or extras in the product title or description, you should always assume it is the standard black vinyl edition. We do not explicitly label standard versions as 'Black Vinyl' or 'Standard Edition' on our website.

Can I pre-order upcoming releases? — Products & Product information:

Yes, absolutely! We want to make sure you get the latest releases as quickly as possible. Items that have not yet been released will be marked with a green "Pre-order" label.

How to find the dates:

Release date: You can always find the official release date in the product information table below the product itself.
Expected dispatch: Just like our other backorder items, we provide an estimated dispatch date for new releases. The "Expected to be ready for shipping" date for these items is set to the official release date.

How it works:
When you pre-order, we immediately reserve the item with our suppliers. We aim to dispatch all pre-orders so they reach you as close to the official release date as possible. While this is achieved in most cases, it cannot be strictly guaranteed due to our reliance on external partners.

Important note on availability:
Occasionally, release dates are postponed by the record labels, or a release may be cut by the supplier if the demand exceeds the pressing plant's capacity. If your order is affected by a delay or a supplier shortage, we will notify you via email as soon as we receive the information.

Shipping tip:
If your order contains both a pre-order and in-stock items, the entire order will be shipped together once the pre-order is released. To receive your in-stock items sooner, please place two separate orders.

Are all your records sealed? — Products & Product information:

iMusic only sells brand new, unused products. However, it is a common misconception that all new records come in tight shrink-wrap. Some independent labels and European distributors use resealable poly sleeves or open plastic sleeves for environmental or practical reasons.

A record may also be unsealed if it is a signed edition or if it has been hand-inspected by an audiophile label. A missing or damaged seal is not considered a defect and is not eligible for a claim as long as the product itself is in mint condition.

How does random shipping work for K-pop albums? — Products & Product information:

K-pop albums are unique as they often come in several different versions under the same barcode. By default, these are distributed randomly by our suppliers and us. You will find information if random shipping applies for a album in our product information.

You are always welcome to request a specific version for items with random shipping by leaving a comment on Step 2 during checkout. We do our absolute best to accommodate your preferences. However, please note that we cannot guarantee availability of a specific version. To avoid delaying your shipment, we reserve the right to provide a different version if your preference is not in stock.

Can I choose a specific version of a K-pop album? — Products & Product information:

Many K-pop albums are released in several different versions under the same barcode. In many cases, you will be able to select a specific version directly on our product page.

If no specific versions are selectable on the product page, the versions are distributed randomly by default. However, you can instead leave a request in the comment field at Step 2 during checkout. We do our absolute best to fulfill your request, but we cannot guarantee the availability of a specific version. To avoid shipping delays, we reserve the right to send a different version if your preferred version is not in stock.

Are pre-order benefits like photo cards or posters included in my K-pop order? — Products & Product information:

In general, we include all pre-order benefits (POB), such as photo cards and posters, whenever they are provided by our suppliers. Please note, however, that these benefits are typically only available with the First Press (the initial production run).

We do our absolute best to secure them for you, but they are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis while supplies last. As we source items from multiple global suppliers, we cannot guarantee that all pre-order benefits will be included unless specifically stated in the product description. If these items are not mentioned in the product title or description, they are likely not included.

DVD and Blu-ray compatibility – will this disc work in my player? — Products & Product information:

Before ordering, please check the region code listed in the product specifications. To play a disc, your player must either be 'Region Free' (Region 0) or match the specific region of the disc.

Note on 4K Ultra HD: Please note that 4K UHD Blu-ray discs are almost always region-free and will work on any 4K Blu-ray player worldwide. Standard Blu-rays and DVDs included in 4K combo packs may still be region-locked.

What subtitles and languages are available on the movie (DVD/Blu-ray)? — Products & Product information:

Information regarding available subtitles and audio tracks can always be found in the product Information table on the specific product page.

As we carry a large selection of international imports as well as Danish and Scandinavian releases, please pay close attention to the language specifications. Please keep the following in mind:

Check the product specifications: We strive to list all available languages and subtitles. Always verify the audio and subtitle tracks before ordering, especially for Scandinavian titles.
Assumption if info is missing: If no specific information about subtitles or audio tracks is listed in the product information, it must be assumed that the movie is provided in its original language only and without subtitles (e.g., a Danish film will be in Danish without English subtitles).
Local vs. Import: Many of our titles are local Nordic releases. These may not include English audio or subtitles unless explicitly stated in the product data.

Are you in doubt?
If you are looking for a specific language or subtitle track and it is not listed, please contact our customer service before placing your order. so that we can help you to verify the specifications.

Why does the same product have different prices? — Prices

Many items come in slightly different versions, with for example different pressing years, track lists or manufacturing countries. As some customers prefer to be able to pick exactly what version they're buying, we're listing all these different versions available from all of our many suppliers. That's why some almost identical items can have a shorter shipping time from one supplier or a lower price from another supplier.

Can I pay in my local currency? — Prices

You can choose between several currencies on our website (such as DKK, EUR, USD, GBP and many more) and pay in the currency of your choice. Please note: If you choose a currency that is different from the base currency of your bank account or credit card, your bank may charge a currency conversion fee. We recommend paying in the currency that matches your card to avoid any unexpected bank charges.

Is VAT (Value Added Tax) included in the prices shown on iMusic? — Prices

For countries within the EU All product prices shown are excluding shipping costs and including VAT. VAT is automatically calculated and adjusted depending on the regulations of the country of destination. There are no further taxes or fees applying for orders within the EU. VAT and orders to the United Kingdom (UK) All prices shown on our UK website are including 20% UK VAT. In case your order amount incl. freight and excl. VAT exceeds £135, UK VAT will not be collected from iMusic, as payment of VAT and additional handling charges will be charged upon arrival to the UK directly from the carrier. We will notify you of any changes in the VAT calculation in your order amount when you proceed to step 3 (payment) during checkout. In the order summary on step 3, before you proceed with the payment, you can find specifications about the applicable VAT-rate for your order in advance. You will find this information in your order confirmation email as well. For countries outside the EU For customers outside the EU, the prices are displayed excluding VAT. Please be aware that your local authorities may charge VAT/GST upon the arrival of your package. Important: Delivery address determines the price The prices, taxes, and shipping costs displayed on iMusic are based on your selected delivery country. It is always the delivery address that determines the applicable VAT rate and final price. If you change the delivery address during checkout, the VAT rate and total amount will be adjusted automatically to comply with the regulations of the destination country.

How do I apply a discount code? — Prices

If you have a discount code, it must be entered early in the checkout process in Step 2 (Shipping): How: Look for the field marked 'Promo code' below the selection of shipping methods. Enter your code and proceeding to the final step. Note: Only one discount code can be used per order, and they cannot be applied after the order has been placed.

How do I place a VAT-exempt order for a EU-business? — Prices

To place an order as a European registered business with VAT exemption, please contact our customer service before finalizing your purchase. Providing your VAT/CVR number during checkout is not sufficient to apply a VAT exemption to your order, as all business details must be manually verified by our team first. Once confirmed, we will assist you in making changes to your customer account so that you can complete your order correctly without VAT.

What payment methods does iMusic accept for online orders? — Payment

We do offer the following payment methods:

▪ Credit/Debit Cards: Visa, MasterCard, Diners Club, Discover.
▪ Digital Wallets: PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay.
▪ Online Banking: Trustly (secure direct bank transfer available in many European countries)
▪ Buy Now, Pay Later / Financing: Klarna (available in selected countries).
▪ Local Methods: MobilePay (DK), iDEAL | Wero (NL), PagBrasil (BRA), Swish (SE), P24 | blik (PL), Twint (CH), Ailpay & WeChat Pay (CN) etc.

The payment methods offered may vary from country to country. Try ordering what you want, and you can see which payment methods apply for your address on Step 3 in Checkout.

Is it safe to pay at iMusic, and how is my payment data protected? — Payment

Absolutely. We use industry-standard SSL encryption to protect your data. All credit card transactions are handled through secure, PCI-certified payment gateways (like Altapay, Quickpay, or Stripe), and we never store your full card information on our servers.

When will my credit card or bank account be charged for my purchase? — Payment

For credit card payments, digital wallets, mobile payments and financing through Klarna the amount is reserved when you place the order but only captured when your items are dispatched from our warehouse. In some cases, you can see a transaction on your account from the beginning, which only is an expression for the reservation of the order amount. In case of changes to your order, the charged amount will automatically be adapted to the articles sent in your package. For payments with Trustly, Swish, iDEAL | Wero, PIX, P24 | blik, Twint , Alipay and WeChat Pay the payment is processed at the time of checkout.

Why was my credit card declined during checkout? — Payment

"Et kort kan blive afvist af flere årsager:
▪ Incorrect card details or expired card. Please check that you have entered the card number, expiry date, and CVC code correctly. ▪ Insufficient funds in the account. ▪ 3D Secure validation failed: Many banks require extra verification (e.g., via an app or SMS code). Please ensure that your card is set up for international online purchases.
If your credit card payment continues to be declined, please try a different payment method."

Why is the final amount on my bank statement lower than the checkout price? — Payment

The final amount on your statement may be lower than your checkout price if your order was modified after it was placed (e.g., if an item was out of stock or cancelled). This only applies to Credit Cards, Digital Wallets & Klarna: When you place your order, we only reserve the total amount. We do not actually capture (charge) the payment until your items are ready to be shipped from our warehouse. If your order is modified, our system automatically adjusts the final charge so you only pay for the items that are actually sent to you. This is why the final amount on your bank statement may differ from the original order confirmation.

Why is my payment for my confirmed order showing as "cancelled" or "expired" on my bank account/PayPal account? — Payment

If you are waiting for a pre-order or an item with a longer delivery time, your bank or PayPal may show the transaction status as 'Expired' or 'Cancelled'. This does NOT mean your order is cancelled. Payment authorizations have a limited lifespan and expires typically after 7 to 30 days. Your order remains fully active in our system. When we are ready to ship your package, we will either capture the original reservation or send you a secure link via email to re-authorize the payment so we can complete your order.

Why am I asked to pay again for my order? — Payment

This usually happens if your initial payment authorization has expired. This is common for pre-orders or items with a longer delivery time, as bank authorizations typically expire after 7 to 30 days. To ensure your order remains active and can be shipped, our system may send you a secure link to re-authorize the payment shortly before we are ready to ship your package. Please note: This is not a double charge. Since the original authorization expired, no money was ever actually withdrawn from your account. This new authorization simply allows us to complete the transaction so we can send your items.

Security Alert: How can I be sure a payment request is from iMusic? — Payment

Always stay alert when receiving payment requests or links via e-mail or SMS. iMusic will never ask for your credit card details or bank information via SMS.

If you receive a suspicious message, we recommend the following:

Check the sender: Ensure the e-mail address ends with @imusic.dk
Check your order history: Log in to "My account" on our official website to see the status of your open orders. If there is an issue with your payment, it will be visible there.
When in doubt, contact us: If you are unsure about a request, do not click any links. Contact our customer service directly to verify the message.

How do I pay with a Gift Card or Voucher? — Payment

An iMusic Gift Card is considered a form of payment, not a discount. Therefore, it must be entered in step 3 (payment) in the checkout process. How: Select 'Gift card or voucher' as your payment method and enter your unique gift card code. If your gift card doesn't cover the full amount of your new order, you can simply pay the remaining balance with a credit card or another available payment method in the same step. What happens to the remaining balance? If you do not use the full amount of your gift card on a single order, you will not lose the rest. Our system will automatically send you an email with the remaining balance and a code for future use. Important: This email is always sent to the same email address that was originally used to purchase the gift card.

Why is there still a reservation on my account after I cancelled my order? — Payment

When you place an order using an international debit card (such as Mastercard, Visa Management, or Visa Electron), your bank reserves the amount immediately to ensure there are sufficient funds for the purchase. If the order is cancelled, we immediately release the claim on the money. However, even though we release the reservation, the bank may continue to hold the amount on your account. Depending on your bank's specific terms and the card issuer's rules, this reservation can last anywhere from 7 to 30 days before it is automatically released. Can iMusic remove the reservation for me? Unfortunately, no. A reservation is an agreement between you and your bank/card issuer. Once we have cancelled the order in our system, we no longer have any control over the funds. Only your bank has the authority to release a reservation before it expires naturally. How can I get my money released faster? If you need the funds released immediately, you should contact your bank’s customer service. They often require documentation that the transaction has been cancelled, which our customer service can provide.

My order shows as not being paid. When do you charge for my order? — Orders, order status & changes to open orders:

We do not charge your credit card / Paypal / Apple Pay account for your order before your order is shipped. This means your order will be shown as not paid until your order is packed and ready for dispatch.

In case your payment can not be charged upon dispatch, we will hold your package and send you a new link for payment. As soon as your payment is registered, your package will be dispatched. In case your payment is not received after our third email and 10 days from packing, we will consider this as a wish from you to cancel your order. You are of course welcome to reorder.

How do I know if iMusic has received my order successfully? — Orders, order status & changes to open orders:

Once your order is placed, you will automatically receive an order confirmation via email. If you haven't received it within a few minutes, please check your spam/junk folder. You can also log in to your iMusic account to see your order history and confirm that the order has been registered.

How can I check my order status and track the expected delivery date? — Orders, order status & changes to open orders:

You can track the progress of your order by logging into your account and clicking on 'My Orders'. All your orders are listed here. You can get a quick overview of your order status by looking at the color of the order number:

▪ Yellow: We are waiting for items to arrive from our suppliers or to be allocated to your order, if on stock.
▪ Green: All items have arrived and are allocated to your order. Your order is prepared for shipping shortly.
▪ Light Blue: Your order has been shipped from our warehouse.
▪ Orange: Your order is ready for shipping but your payment could not be captured. Please place a new payment authorisation.
▪ Red: Cancelled order.

If you open your order details, you will find more specific information about each order, including the expected date for dispatch of your order. Once your order is shipped (Light Blue orders), you will also find your tracking link on the order page. Please note that the color codes used for individual order lines (the specific products) have a different meaning than the above mentioned color codes used for the overall order number.

Can I add new items to an existing open order to save on shipping? — Orders, order status & changes to open orders:

Yes! As long as your order is still waiting for items from suppliers and ready for shipment yet (yellow order status), you can add new products to it yourself. How to do it:

Log in to your account.
Add the new item(s) to your shopping cart.
Go to checkout. If you have an eligible open order, you will see the option to 'Add to open order' and follow the instructions on your screen.

After completing payment, the contents of your shopping basket will be added to the selected order and will be shipped as soon as the last item on this order has been received at our warehouse. Please note: This feature is unfortunately not available for orders shipping to the UK or Switzerland. This is due to strict customs regulations and VAT collection limits (IOSS) tied to the total order value. If you are ordering from these countries, please contact our customer service for assistence or place a seperate order.

How do I change or cancel my iMusic order before it is shipped? — Orders, order status & changes to open orders:

As long as your order has not yet entered the packing and shipping process, you can change or cancel your entire order or single products in your order free of charge. Please contact our customer service as soon as possible with your order number. Once an order is being packed and prepeared for handover to the carrier, we can no longer cancel or change it. Please note that it might take a little longer to handle written requests. Give us a call, if shipping time is close, to be sure we can reach to stop your order. If your order has already been dispatched, you still have the right to cancel your purchase under our Right of Withdrawal. In this case, you can return the items to us once you receive them. Please have a close look at our Return Policy for more details on how to return an item, the conditions for a refund and why we do not recommend returns from countries outside the EU.

My order shows as not paid. Is my order still active? — Orders, order status & changes to open orders:

Whether your order is active and what action you may need to take depends on its current payment status. You can find a detailed description, including wording and the color codes, on the order page under 'My Orders' in your customer profile.

▪ Light Yellow / Yellow (Active): Your order is fully active. If the payment authorization has expired (common for pre-orders), don't worry – we are still securing your items. We will send you a secure link to re-authorize the payment shortly before we are ready to ship.

▪ Orange (Action Required): Your items are ready and your order is prepared for shipping, but we could not capture the payment. Your order is on hold until payment is resolved. This usually happens if your payment authorization has expired or there are insufficient funds. To get your package sent, please complete the payment via the link sent to your email or through your customer profile as soon as possible. If your payment is not re-authorized after approximately 2 weeks and you have not reacted to our payment reminders, your order will be cancelled due to missing payment.

▪ Green (Active): All items have arrived and are being prepared for packing and shipping. We will process your payment as soon as your order is ready for dispatch. Should any issues arise with the payment at this stage, we will contact you immediately by e-mail. We recommend you to keep an eye on your mail box and your spam filter.

▪ Red (Inactive): Your order and any open payment authorizations have been cancelled.

Why hasn’t my order shipped yet? — Orders, order status & changes to open orders:

The most common reasons for an order not having shipped yet are:

▪ Waiting for items: Your order contains items that are 'Expected to be ready for shipping' in a certain number of days or delayed from our external suppliers.

▪ Pre-orders: Your order contains a pre-order item that hasn't been released yet.

▪ Combined shipping: We ship your order once all items have arrived.

Check your order confirmation or the order information in your customer profile to see the expected delivery time for each item. The item with the longest dispatch time determines when your order will be shipped from our warehouse. In the event of delays, you will find additional information on the order page in your customer profile, while we also endeavor to keep you updated via email.

Can I change my shipping address after placing an order? — Orders, order status & changes to open orders:

Yes, as long as your order is not yet being prepared for shipment, you can easily update your shipping address yourself.
How to do it:

Open the specific order you wish to modify.

Find the shipping address field and click on 'Edit address' in the upper right corner.

Now you can update your shipping address as needed. Once an order is being processed for shipment or has moved to the status 'Light Blue' (shipped) and left our warehouse, no further changes can be made.
Important Exceptions: Please contact our customer service for assistance, if you need to change your Delivery Method or the country of destination.

Can I split my order into multiple shipments for faster delivery? — Orders, order status & changes to open orders:

To keep shipping costs as low as possible for our customers, we generally wait until all items in your order have arrived at our warehouse before shipping your package in one go.

If your order contains both 'In stock' items, pre-orders, or items on order with a slightly longer delivery time, the entire shipment will wait for the final item to arrive before being dispatched.

If you need part of your order sooner:

▪ Before ordering: We recommend placing two separate orders—one for the items currently in stock and one for the items with a longer lead time.
▪ After an order is placed: If you have already placed an order and wish to have it split into two shipments, please contact our customer service.

Please note: An additional shipping fee will apply for the extra delivery, as we incur new freight costs from the carrier.

How are vinyl records packaged to prevent bent corners and damage during shipping? — Packing of orders

As vinyl lovers ourselves, we know how important it is that your records arrive in pristine condition. We take great pride in our packaging and use custom-made, heavy-duty cardboard mailers specifically designed for LPs. These mailers are constructed with double-walled corners and extended edges, which act as a 'buffer' to protect the sleeves from being dented or crushed during transit. For larger orders, we use bubble wrap, multiple cardboard mailers, extra padding, and specialized boxes that provide an added layer of protection on all sides, ensuring your vinyl stays secure throughout its journey. Take a look at our videos on how we package our vinyl orders in different sizes below.

How do you pack small vinyl orders (1-3 LPs)? — Packing of orders

How do you ensure protection for medium-sized vinyl orders? — Packing of orders

What packaging is used for large vinyl shipments? — Packing of orders

How are very large or bulk vinyl orders safely shipped? — Packing of orders

How do you pack CD orders? — Packing of orders

When will my order be shipped? — Delivery & shipping

If all items in your order are in stock, we typically pack and ship your order within 1-2 business days. During peak periods, stock items may take a little longer to be dispatched (e.g., during holiday seasons or major events like Black Friday and Record Store Day).

If your order contains pre-orders or items that are currently out of stock, we ship the entire order as soon as all items have arrived at our warehouse. Please note the following:

Estimated Shipping: You can find the expected shipping date for each individual item in the product description and on your order confirmation. Estimated delivery times on our website are updated on a daily basis, based on the typical lead time from the supplier. However, in some cases, an item may arrive at our warehouse earlier or later than expected.

Split Shipping: We generally do not split orders. If you need in-stock items delivered immediately, we recommend placing a separate order for them.

Order Status: You can always track the current status and view the expected shipping dates for your items under 'My Orders'.

How long does delivery to my address take? — Delivery & shipping

In addition to the expected shipping time for each item specified in the product description, you must calculate the transit time that your chosen shipping company will need to deliver your order from our warehouse in Denmark to your address.

Transit times vary depending on the destination country, the chosen shipping method, and the specific delivery address.

Estimated transit times from the date of shipping:

▪ United Kingdom & Europe: Standard (3-6 business days) | Express (1-2 business days).
▪ USA / Canada / Australia & Rest of the world: Standard Post (6-10 business days) | Express (3-5 business days).

Important: These estimates are measured from the day your package is dispatched from our warehouse, not from the moment you place your order.

How to find your total delivery time:

You can see the estimated delivery time to your address right below all available shipping methods during the checkout process under Step 2 (Delivery), after you have entered your delivery address.

When will my order be shipped if I have ordered more than one item? — Delivery & shipping

All ordered items are sent in one shipment and no sooner than upon receipt of the last item from our supplier.

If you change your mind, and the waiting time for some items of your order is too long, we can offer to split your order. We do charge you for the additional shipping costs, by sending you a payment link for payment of the remaining shipping amount by email. Contact our customer service and we will split your order for you.

Can I track my shipment and how can I see where my package is? — Delivery & shipping

Once your order has been packed and dispatched from our warehouse, you will receive an automatic shipping confirmation email.

You can track your package in two ways:

▪ In your shipping confirmation email: Click the tracking link provided in the email to go directly to the carrier's tracking page.
▪ On your Order page: Log in to your iMusic account (or use the direct link from your order confirmation) to find your order overview. Here you can find both your tracking number and a direct link to the carrier's tracking page located just above the overview of your ordered items.

Please note: It can take up to 24 hours from the time you receive your tracking number until the carrier updates the first scan in their system. If the link doesn't show any data immediately, please try again later.

Once we receive the returned package, we will notify you by email to discuss the next steps for your order. We expect a response to our inquiry within approximately 5 business days. If we do not hear from you within this timeframe, the order will be cancelled and the amount refunded (minus any applicable return shipping fees).

Upon the return of your order, you have the following options:

Reshipment: We can ship the package again. Please note that a new shipping fee will be charged to cover the cost of the second delivery attempt, unless the delivery failure was due to an error on our part or the carrier's. In the event of a mistake by us or the carrier, we will of course resend the package at our expense.

Cancellation: We can cancel the order and refund the payment. Please note that you cannot exercise your Right of Withdrawal simply by refusing to receive the package or by failing to pick it up from a parcel shop without giving us clear notice. If you withdraw from your purchase in this manner, the return shipping costs will automatically be deducted from the amount to be refunded. Therefore, please always remember to notify us of your withdrawal by email in advance.

Please note for returns from outside the EU (including the UK, USA, etc.): Due to high costs, we unfortunately cannot offer reshipment for orders outside the EU. In these cases, returns will automatically be cancelled by us, and we reserve the right to deduct a handling fee equivalent to twice the shipping fee before refunding the purchase amount to cover our return costs. If the return is due to a mistake on our part or by the carrier, we will of course refund the full purchase amount.

To avoid unnecessary returns, we recommend keeping a close eye on your tracking link while your package is on its way to you. You can find the tracking link in our shipping confirmation email as well as on the order page in your customer account. If the expected delivery date has passed and you haven't received your package or an email from us, please check your spam folder.

Can I delay my shipment (e.g., due to vacation)? — Delivery & shipping

Yes, you can – as long as your order is still open (yellow)! If you are going on vacation or are otherwise unable to receive your package for a period of time, we can put your order on hold and ship it at a later date.

How to request a delay:
Please contact our customer service as soon as possible after placing your order. Make sure to include your order number and the specific date you would like us to ship your package.

Please note: We can only delay orders that have not yet entered the 'Green' (Prepared) or 'Light Blue' (Shipped) status. We recommend contacting us immediately to ensure we can catch the order in time. Please be aware that it might take a little longer to handle written requests. If the shipping date is close, we recommend giving us a call to ensure we can stop your order in time.

What is the iMusic return policy for vinyl, CDs, merchandise and other items? — Right of withdrawal and return

We offer a 14-day right of withdrawal on all products. The period begins on the day you receive the item or a third party designated by you takes physical possession of it.

Important: Returns from outside the EU are strongly discouraged. Due to high postage costs, import duties, and extended customs handling time, returning items from non-EU countries is often not financially viable for the customer. Please always contact our customer service before returning any items. We reserve the right to deduct a minimum of 30 EUR from your refund to cover the import duties and handling fees charged by customs.

If you decide to return an item, please have the following in mind to be eligible for a refund:

▪ All items must be returned in their original condition and packaging and preferably in our shipping box.
▪ Vinyl, CDs, and K-pop albums: The factory seal must be unbroken. If the seal is broken, the item is considered used and cannot be returned. (Exception: If you suspect damage or received the wrong item, you may break the seal for inspection).
▪ Merchandise, clothing, books, and accessories: Must be unused and in original packaging.

Please note: You cannot withdraw from a purchase by simply refusing delivery or failing to collect the package without notifying us. You must send a clear notification before the 14-day period expires.
We reserve the right to refuse returns that do not meet these conditions.

How do I return a product and get a return label? — Right of withdrawal and return

If you wish to return an item, please always contact our customer service first. You can do this by sending an email to info@imusic.dk or by calling us at +45 86 13 73 43 during our office opening hours.

Once you have notified us, the return process depends on your location:

Customers within the EU: You should purchase your return shipping label directly through our Returns Page. The cost of the label will automatically be deducted from your final refund.

Customers outside the EU: Returns from outside the EU are strongly discouraged. Due to high postage costs, import duties, and extended customs handling time, returning items from non-EU countries is often not financially viable for the customer. Please always contact our customer service before returning any items.

If you want to return a product, you must arrange and pay for your own return shipping. Please note that you must ship the package with direct delivery to our warehouse address. We do not accept returns sent to postal agents, parcel shops, pickup locations, or cash on delivery (COD). We strongly recommend using a shipping service with a tracking number.

Please send the package directly to:
iMusic A/S
Sindalsvej 36B
DK-8240 Risskov
Denmark

Important Requirements for All Returns

▪ Delivery: You have received your order within the last 14 days.
▪ Condition: The goods must be returned unused, undamaged, and in their original wrapping.
▪ Packing: Please pack the items securely (preferably in the original shipping box) to avoid damage during transit. iMusic will not refund items that are damaged during the return shipment.
▪ Identification: To ensure smooth handling at our warehouse, please include a short message inside the package stating your name and order number.

Please send or deliver the return goods without undue delay and in any event no later than 14 days from the date on which we received notice of your decision to cancel the purchase.

Who pays for return shipping if I change my mind? — Right of withdrawal and return

If you wish to return an item because you changed your mind, you are responsible for all return costs.

Customers within the EU: To make the return as easy and cost-effective as possible, we recommend purchasing your return shipping label directly through our Returns Page. The price will be clearly stated during the process and deducted from your refund.

Customers outside the EU (e.g., USA, UK, Canada, Australia): Unfortunately, customers outside the EU must arrange and pay for their own return shipping. Please note that returns can take a long time to arrive and iMusic does not cover import taxes, customs duties, or other charges connected to the return. However, if a customer outside the EU neglects to pay for possible import taxes, customs duties or other fees applying upon arrival to the final country, the customer refuses to receive the shipment, the customs authorities are returning an order due to a mistake made by the customer, or if the order is returned to iMusic for any reason that is not the fault of iMusic, iMusic will deduct shipping costs and shipping costs for the return to Denmark before refunding the remaining amount paid. Any unpaid charges related to the return will be deducted before refunding the order amount. Therefore, please always contact our customer service before making a return!

Did you receive a damaged item or a wrong delivery?
If the return is due to a mistake on our part or a defect, please always contact our customer service before sending anything back, so we can send you a prepaid return label (only orders within the EU) or find an alternative solution for you.

How long does it take to receive my refund after a return? — Right of withdrawal and return

Once we have received and inspected your return at our warehouse, our return department will confirm the arrival and process your refund. The return fright costs will be charged before the remaining amount will be credited back to the same payment method you used for the original purchase. Please note that it can take up to 10 business days for the amount to appear in your account, depending on your bank or credit card provider.

Can I exchange an item for a different version or another item instead of a refund? — Right of withdrawal and return

To ensure the fastest possible service, we do not offer direct exchanges. If you want a different item, please follow the return process for the original item and place a new order for the product you want instead.

By placing a new order immediately, you ensure that the item you want is reserved for you right away. This way, you don't risk the item selling out while your return is being processed, and you will receive your new article much faster.

For customers outside the EU: Please be aware of the above outlined recommendation regarding returns. As you are responsible for all return shipping fees, customs duties, and import taxes, returning an item from outside the EU can be very costly. We highly recommend checking the total return costs before placing a new order, as these expenses cannot be refunded or covered by iMusic.

Random Shipping: Can I return a K-pop album if I received a different version than I wanted? — Right of withdrawal and return

K-pop albums often come in multiple versions and are typically distributed at random. If random shipping applies to a product, it will be stated in the product description. You are welcome to indicate a preferred version in the comment field (step 2 of checkout), and we will do our best to accommodate it. However, we cannot guarantee preferred versions for products with random shipping.

Random Shipping:
Receiving a version other than the preferred one for K-pop albums with random shipping is not considered a defect or an error on our part.

Right of Withdrawal:
If you receive a version other than the one you hoped for, you are still covered by your 14-day right of withdrawal.

IMPORTANT – Seal:
To be eligible for a refund in this case, the item's seal/packaging must be unbroken. If the plastic wrap has been removed – for example, to check for specific photocards or content – the item can no longer be returned.

Return Costs:
Since receiving a non-preferred version is not an error, the buyer is responsible for all return shipping costs. Please note that customers outside the EU are also responsible for any customs duties, taxes, and import fees related to the return shipment, and these costs will not be refunded or covered by iMusic - see questions above.

What should I do if the item has a manufacturing defect or does not match the description? — Complaints & Damaged Items

If you receive a product with material or manufacturing defects, or if the content does not match the description at the time of purchase, consumer protection laws apply. You always have a 24-month right to claim from the date of delivery.

Note on sealing: We only sell new products. Occasionally, items arrive from our suppliers without shrink-wrap or with minor seal damage. This does not constitute a valid reason for a claim, as long as the item itself is intact and defect-free.

How to make a claim

To help us assess your case as quickly as possible, please send an email to info@imusic.dk with the following:

▪ a detailed description of the issue.
▪ photos or a short video showing the defect.

What happens after approval?

Once your claim is approved, our customer service will determine if a return is necessary. Within the EU, we will cover the costs and provide you with a prepaid return label. Outside the EU, due to high freight and customs fees, we generally do not require a return; instead, we may ask for proof of destruction.

Depending on the case, we will offer one of the following solutions:

▪ a replacement product or a full refund (including original shipping if the order only contained the defective item). Please note that replacements are shipped, and refunds are issued, as soon as the claimed item has been received back at our warehouse (for EU orders) or once proof of destruction has been provided and approved (for non-EU orders).
▪ a discount if the damage is assessed as minor.

If the claim is found to be unjustified (e.g., damage caused by misuse or wear and tear), all shipping costs associated with the case will be charged to the customer.

What should I do if my order arrives damaged or defective? — Complaints & Damaged Items

If your item is damaged upon arrival or is defective, please contact our customer service. If you suspect that your item may be damaged, you are welcome to break the seal/shrink wrap to inspect it further.

To process your claim, we need clear photos or a short video of:

▪ the damage itself on the item(s).
▪ the external shipping packaging (even if it does not look damaged).
▪ the item's EAN barcode.
▪ the item's cover/sleeve.

For vinyl collectors, please note that minor cosmetic issues may occur, such as seam splits (where the vinyl record pierces the inner and/or outer sleeve during transit). If this happens, please contact us so we can find a fair solution.

Similarly, the outer box of a K-pop album is designed solely to protect the internal contents. According to the manufacturers, minor cosmetic wear and tear on the outer box is not considered a defect.

For further information, please read our terms and conditions.

Do I need to return a defective item to receive a replacement or refund? — Complaints & Damaged Items

This depends on where you are located:

Within the EU: We always ask you to return the defective item so our team can inspect it and make a claim with our supplier. In case of claims we will provide you with a prepaid return label. If your album only has minor damages, we may choose to provide a price reduction instead of a return. If you prefer a replacement item, it will be shipped as soon as your return has been handled at our warehouse.

Outside the EU: Due to high return shipping costs and long transit times, we generally do not require the return of defective items from outside the EU for complaints. Instead, the claim process consists of two steps:

According to our terms and conditions, we require the following photos in order to evaluate the damage and process the claim:

▪ Only one photo per item.
▪ The photo must show both the damage and the cover, so we can easily identify the album.
▪ The iMusic label must be visible in the photo.

After reviewing these photos, our customer service will contact you with further instructions. As a consequence of the claim and before we can issue a refund or ship a replacement, you will generally be required to destroy the item and provide a photo as proof of destruction. If a replacement item is approved, it will be shipped as soon as we have received and validated this documentation of destruction.

Important: Please never return a defective item at our expense until you have been in contact with our customer service and received explicit instructions. A return of a defective item at our expense must always be approved by us in advance.

Return shipping - Who pays for the return in case of complaints? — Complaints & Damaged Items

If your claim is approved due to a manufacturing defect, an error on our part, or shipping damage, and a return is deemed necessary by our customer service, we will cover the return costs. Within the EU, we will provide a prepaid return label.

For customers outside the EU, please note that returning goods involves high freight and customs fees (as mentioned above). Therefore, we generally do not require items to be returned from outside the EU; instead, we may ask for a proof of destruction for a refund or a replacement order.

Why is my record unsealed or in a plastic sleeve? — Complaints & Damaged Items

iMusic only sells brand new, unused products. While the vast majority of vinyl records and CDs arrive factory-sealed in shrink-wrap, there are rare cases where the outer seal may be missing, damaged, or replaced with an open plastic sleeve.

When is it eligible for a claim? A claim is only justified if the actual product (the vinyl, CD, or cover) has a physical defect or damage. If the record and its cover are in mint condition, a missing factory seal or a different type of plastic sleeve is not considered a defect and does not qualify for a claim.

K-pop Outboxes: Similarly, the outer box (outbox) of a K-pop album is designed solely to protect the internal contents during transit. Minor cosmetic wear, dents, or scratches to the outbox do not constitute a product defect.

Can I save vinyls, CDs, merch or other items for later? — Wish lists & saving your items:

Yes, you have two options: you can either create a wish list for long-term saving or park your shopping cart for a short period. Please note that neither option reserves the stock. Additionally, prices and stock status may change or be updated while items are saved in your wish list or cart. We recommend using the wish list for items you aren't ready to buy yet.

Can I save my shopping cart if I am not ready to check out? — Wish lists & saving your items:

If you have accepted cookies and enabled the “remember me” function, your shopping cart can typically be parked for up to 48 hours, depending on your browser settings. However, we do not recommend this for popular items. Items in a parked cart are NOT reserved and can sell out or change in price before you complete your order. For safer long-term storage, please use our wish list function.

How do I create a wish list? — Wish lists & saving your items:

You can easily create and manage multiple wish lists (you need to be logged in). On any product page, you will find the wish list section directly below the price, the buy-button, and the rating box. To add an item to a wishlist, simply select your desired list from the dropdown menu in the "Add to your iMusic wish list" box and click "Add". If you haven't created a list yet, you can choose "New wish list...", and one will be created automatically. You can find all your saved items under "My account > Wishlist".

How do I find my wish list? — Wish lists & saving your items:

You can access your wish lists at any time by logging into your account. Go to "My account" in the top menu and select "Wishlist". From here, you can manage your different lists, move items to your shopping cart, or share them with others.

How long can I keep items on my wish list, and are they automatically removed if they become unavailable? — Wish lists & saving your items:

Items will stay on your wish list for as long as you like – there is no time limit. They are not automatically removed, even if they are no longer available on the website. However, please note that an item may sell out or become unavailable from our suppliers in the meantime. Having an item on your wish list does not guarantee that it will remain in stock or that the price will stay the same.

Can I share my wish list with friends and family for gifts? — Wish lists & saving your items:

Yes. Wish lists can easily be sent to friends and family! Log in, click "Wishlist", and open the wish list you want to send. Fill out the section “Send wishlist to a friend” with the requested information and click on send.

Can I change my email address if I entered it incorrectly during registration? — Login & Customer Account

Yes, you can. As mentioned above, if you can still log into your account, you can simply go to "My account" and select "Edit Profile" to update your email address. If you have made a typo and are unable to log in, or if you have already placed an order with the incorrect email, please contact our customer service as soon as possible. We will then help you correct the email on your account and ensure that your order confirmation and shipping updates are sent to the right place.

"What should I do if I’m not receiving emails or order confirmations from iMusic? " — Login & Customer Account

The most common reason for iMusic emails not reaching the recipient is a misspelled email address. Please check that you have entered the correct email address in your account by clicking on "My Account" in the upper right corner. If you need to change your email address, you can do so under "Edit Profile". It may also be due to your mail provider's spam filter. Please check your spam folder or other categories your provider might use (e.g., "Promotions"). We recommend adding our email (info@imusic.dk) as a contact in your address book to ensure our messages get through. Another common reason is that your mailbox is full. Some providers (like Hotmail/Outlook) have strict storage limits. If your storage is 100% full, new emails will be rejected by your provider. You should regularly delete unimportant emails to ensure there is room for new ones. We also recommend adding info@imusic.dk to your safe senders list to ensure our order updates don't end up in your spam folder. Still haven't found your email? If none of the above solves the problem, please contact our customer service, and we will help you verify your information.

Where can I see my previous order history and download invoices? — Login & Customer Account

Once logged in, you can find a overview of your recent order history under "My account > Order history". Here you can see your previous purchases, download invoices, and check the status of your current orders. Once your order has been shipped, you will also be able to find tracking information here, allowing you to follow your package's journey.

Is it possible to merge two separate iMusic accounts into one? — Login & Customer Account

If you have accidentally created more than one account and would like to have your information or order history merged, please contact our customer service. We will be happy to assist you in consolidating your accounts so you have everything gathered in one place.

How do I permanently delete my iMusic account and personal data? — Login & Customer Account

If you wish to delete your account and all associated data, please send an e-mail to our customer service from the e-mail address registered to the account. We will then process your request and confirm once your account and personal information have been removed from our system.

Please note: When your account is deleted, you will lose access to your order history, invoices and tracking information. We recommend downloading any invoices you may need before requesting to have your account removed. Please be aware that due to legal requirements (e.g., accounting and tax laws), we are obligated to retain certain transaction data for a specific period, even if your user profile is deleted.

Packing of orders

How are vinyl records packaged to prevent bent corners and damage during shipping?

# As vinyl lovers ourselves, we know how important it is that your records arrive in pristine condition. We take great pride in our packaging and use custom-made, heavy-duty cardboard mailers specifically designed for LPs. These mailers are constructed with double-walled corners and extended edges, which act as a 'buffer' to protect the sleeves from being dented or crushed during transit. For larger orders, we use bubble wrap, multiple cardboard mailers, extra padding, and specialized boxes that provide an added layer of protection on all sides, ensuring your vinyl stays secure throughout its journey. Take a look at our videos on how we package our vinyl orders in different sizes below.
