What you need to know ...

Below you will find a number of facts, useful information. For some it will be about obvious things, for others it will shed some light on the whole set-up.
Thank you very much for your interest!

What is the sales of this product like?
You are interested in these vintage magazines, newspapers and photos and would like to purchase them. At the top of the menu, click on ‘price list’ and you will be taken to the price list and order page. You can order the magazines or newspapers either by title or as global packages. The large global packages are on a USB stick and are sent by regular mail; if you want to order the magazines per title or in small global packages, the delivery will be carried out via data transfer.

If you order via a usb stick.
You choose one of the two types of usb sticks with magazines; the content is the same, it is just a different type of usb stick; one is a regular usb stick, the other is one with two outputs (in addition to the regular output, it also has an output for smartphones, mini-laptops, tablets and e-readers).
A few days after entering your order, you will receive your ordered usb stick via regular mail. You connect it to your computer, laptop, phone or tablet and you can quietly read and view the magazines (together accounting for some sloppy 85GB).

If you order via data transfer.
You follow the order procedure and the same day or the next day you will receive an e-mail with a link. You click on the link and you will be taken to a data transfer website, where you can download your order. You need not fear viruses; this is a reputable data transfer website, namely transfernow.

What else you need to know.
All magazines listed on the order page are available immediately. On the pages where the magazines are presented, you will often find issues of that magazine that are planned. The range is constantly being expanded; however, this is done title by title, with many new issues being added at regular intervals. If you would like more issues of a certain magazine, you may always send us an e-mail. However, please note that scanning and processing a magazine takes a lot of time

Can I create an account.
No. We have no intention of tracking your purchasing behaviour. You will receive an occasional newsletter from us; otherwise, we will leave you alone. If you want more information contact us.

What can I expect as content?
We offer the magazines as they were originally published. No censorship is applied. Even if there is a meaningless one-off advertising insert, it is also digitised. So you receive the magazine exactly as it was published at the time.
Thus, we are never liable for the content, nor does it reflect our opinion, as you may find articles in some magazines that could get you into trouble today.
On the usb stick, the magazines are arranged first by title and second by date.

What about language partitioning?
If we consider the entire 650 magazines, the French and Dutch-language magazines form the main part, each accounting for approximately 43%; the remaining part is taken up by German and English with a slight predominance of German-language magazines. This proportional trend will continue in the coming years.

In what condition are the magazines?
All magazines have been very thoroughly digitally restored. Some are more than 100 years old and yet we present them to you in a very pleasantly readable and enjoyable form.
In some rare cases, it was impossible to remove the traces of restoration. Mind you 95% of our offerings are in digitally immaculate condition. There are also some magazines in which some pages are missing; information on these can be found in the journals themselves.
The journals were digitised at 500 dpi which is very high and guarantees flawless quality.

What about privacy?
Because we only have one article, it is not useful for us to analyse your browsing behaviour or interests via cookies or related further. You determine the extent to which you want to stay in touch with this website; by participating in ‘blog discussions’, displaying your opinion, indicating which magazines you prefer, …
So we do not need information about who you are or where you are from.

Are payments made securely?
All payments are made via Mollie. They process the payment via your bank or another payment organism. Mollie is virtually the largest internet payment platform in Europe. They work with the major online retailers. So your payments are always made in a secure environment.

What is the delivery time?
The delivery time can vary greatly; it depends on the number of orders we receive. In normal circumstances, if the order is dispatched the day after, it takes about one week, and this is due to bpost’s service. If we are unexpectedly overwhelmed, delivery time may extend, in which case we will keep you informed. If you have any concerns, please feel free to send us an email at info@losha.org. We will answer your mail as soon as possible.

What if a usb doesn’t work?
You send us an e-mail with the necessary information about the problem, and we will provide a solution.
