  • Delivery and Handling

Deliveries are arranged through Royal Mail. As with most mail order firms we cannot guarantee the service provided by the couriers we use for delivery. If you have any special delivery instructions please email us as soon as possible, so we can try to arrange this before despatch.  There may be instances where you will be required to enquire direct with Royal Mail in order to resolve delivery issues and/or collect from a post office/depot yourselves.

  • Deliveries to Europe

For orders outside of mainland U.K. please email us and we will email you our best quote for delivery. Your order will not be processed until we receive your confirmation to proceed.

  • Customs Charges

When ordering goods from us for delivery overseas, you may be subject to import duties and taxes which are levied once the package reaches your country. Any required contact & additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you. We have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. Customs policies/restrictions vary widely from country to country, so you should contact your local customs office for further information. You will be liable for orders held or destroyed by customs in such cases. Additionally, please note that when ordering from us, you are considered the importer of record and must comply with all laws and regulations of the country in which you are receiving the goods.

Shipping and packing charges are calculated depending on the delivery destination. These charges are visible to you when you proceed to the Checkout and before you finalise the order transaction.

As checkout is an automated process there may unfortunately be errors in the delivery cost to some areas.
