Delivery Schedule

We aim to dispatch orders placed before 1pm Monday to Friday the same day (excluding bank holidays). Orders placed after 1pm will leave on the next working day (so on Friday this will normally mean Monday). 

Special Delivery/APC Overnight does not cover Saturday delivery. Therefore, orders placed after 1pm Thursday and before 1pm Friday will be despatched on Friday and delivered on Monday. Also Special Delivery/APC Overnight do not offer next day delivery to Northern Ireland, certain parts of the Scottish Highlands and offshore islands (e.g. Channel Islands).

We DO NOT deliver to shipping houses such as Aramex House. 

If we are out of stock of any items you will be informed via email.

 

Back Orders

If your item is not in stock, we will put it on back order for you. You will always be emailed with the option to cancel your order if you would rather not wait.

 

Tax Charges

All prices are displayed in UK pounds (£ GBP), include UK VAT where appropriate and are shipped from the UK. 

For orders shipped outside of the UK, taxes will be recalculated in the checkout once you have entered your delivery location.  

EU* orders under €150** equivalent in GBP: 
Taxes will be recalculated to reflect your regional tax rate and we pay these, once your order is paid for, via the EU Import One Stop Shop (IOSS). Therefore, no additional taxes should need to be paid locally when your order arrives (countries may still reserve the right to charge duties locally if they feel necessary). 

All other countries: 
These are sent with all taxes removed so taxes and/or import duties may be charged in your delivery country for which YOU ARE LIABLE. You will usually receive an email notification (or letter) from the local delivery partner that charges are due before your order will be delivered.

* Certain EU countries/currencies are not handled by our IOSS integration so have to be treated as part of the rest of the world. These may vary from time to time but currently include: Iceland, Norway & Switzerland.

**€150 euros is the threshold set by the EU for being able to collect and pay taxes via the EU Import One Stop Shop. 

 

Credit Card Security

All payments are handled by either SagePay, SellerDeck Payments, RBS Worldpay or PayPal and we do not store your credit card details.

We have checked and monitor that all the payment service providers (PSPs) we use are compliant with Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI-DSS). Through the PSPs above, we accept payments by the following methods:
