How Cecotec started

This article is independent and not affiliated with Cecotec. Trademarks belong to their respective owners. We are not an authorized dealer.

This is a short, independent history of Cecotec. It is not a catalog, and Spain Buying Agent does not speak for the brand.

César Orts and his brother José founded Cecotec in Valencia in 1995. The firm spent years on small appliances, then became widely known in Spain for the Conga robot vacuum and the Mambo kitchen machine. Those machines are built for 230 volt homes and a European plug. A lower price in EUR does not make a 110 volt kitchen work. We buy the model on the Spain listing after you approve USD lines. This page is background.

How an order moves

Send one link per item when you can. Add EU size, color, and plug type in order comments. Reference prices go on the form in EUR. We answer on the order page in USD, including the service fee. First payment covers the goods and that fee. Second payment is international shipping after we weigh the packed parcel. You can ask us to hold a box at the warehouse while you add another Spanish seller.

Prices you type, prices we write

Spanish listings show EUR. Your order page shows USD. That split is deliberate. You keep the shelf number you saw, usually with Spanish tax included for a domestic shopper. We keep invoices, the service fee, and later the shipping bill in one currency you can approve. Read pricing for the fee rules. Use the shipping calculator only as a planning aid. Sale prices can vanish at checkout. We rewrite the live total before you pay.

Shipping after we have the goods

Domestic Spanish delivery brings the purchase to our warehouse. International shipping starts only when you approve the second stage. Weight, box size, and the destination country change the carrier price. We do not promise a fixed worldwide rate here. The shipping calculator is a guide. Duties and taxes at your border are yours to expect. We do not call a shipment duty-free. If you are buying from several Spanish sellers, say so in order comments and we can combine eligible goods into one outbound box. Fee rules stay on pricing. You typed EUR. Shipping is written in USD.

What we will not pretend

Spain Buying Agent is an independent buying service. We are not the seller, and we do not rent you an address for parcels you bought yourself. If Cecotec is out of stock, restricted, or priced far above the shelf figure you typed, we say so on the order page before any charge. Public holidays in Spain slow couriers. We pass along the delay the retailer gives us. You can decline the order if the new timing does not work. We do not buy alcohol on any of these requests.

From the workshop story to a real purchase

History explains why shoppers look for Cecotec in Spain. It does not reserve stock. When you want a current piece, send the Spanish product link or a boutique note. We check domestic availability, write USD item lines and the service fee, and ship after you approve both payment stages. See pricing and the shipping calculator. The form still takes the shelf figure in EUR.

If you'd like us to buy something from a French store for you, send us the product links or details through the order form. We'll reply with the item cost in USD and our international shipping rate per kilo or pound to your country. If you like what you see, pay for the order and we'll start working on it. Not happy with the total? Just ignore it. You only pay if you want to go ahead. How to order explains the order process.
