Shipping & Delivery Information
We aim to dispatch goods within 48 hours wherever possible, (with Weekends and UK Bank Holidays off). If for any reason there is a problem, we will notify you so that you can change or cancel your order if necessary.
If we have periods where we are unable to ship we will put a notification of the dates this applies to and clear notification of the date that shipping will resume on the home page of our store.
Before you finalise and submit your order please ensure the delivery address is correct including the postcode.
All deliveries to destinations outside the UK may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied by the importing country at the time the delivery arrives in your country. All applicable duties, fees and any additional charges may be outside of our control and please be aware YOU will be responsible for these payments.
PO Boxes - please be aware that sometimes we may contact you to ask for an alternative address with a street number and name because we have had some parcels go missing when shipping to PO Boxes in some countries. In addition, some couriers, like UPS refuse to ship to PO Box addresses, so if possible, always enter a street number/name when placing your order. If in doubt, a work address is always a good idea so there's someone available to receive the parcel, assuming your work doesn't mind of course!
For shipments to the EU parcels are shipped as part of the IOSS VAT scheme - please see HERE for more information.
For shipments to the USA please see HERE for more information.
If you need to return an item, please note that customs duties are not always refundable. This varies depending on your country’s individual regulations. For more information on your country’s import policy, please check with your local Customs office.
Missing Delivery
If you contact us to say that you have not received your order, we may ask you to check around your house/garden and with your neighbours as your parcel may have been left in a safe place or with a neighbour. With international shipments (outside the UK) we normally allow 45 days before we regard a parcel as lost due to delays created by local Customs import processes. If your shipment still hasn't arrived after that we will gladly send a replacement.
If a courier delivers your parcel and the status says it's 'delivered' but you didn't receive it, please check around your house/garden and with your neighbours as your parcel may have been left in a safe place or with a neighbour. We cannot proceed with any claims for parcels that the couriers say they have delivered, but you cannot find without first undertaking these checks. As soon as you confirm that the parcel cannot be located we will contact the courier and begin the investigation process. Please be aware that we will not send any replacement items until the courier investigations are completed and the parcel is confirmed as lost.
Faulty/Damaged Items
Please ensure that you check all items on receipt of your order, as faulty or damaged items must be reported within 7 working days of receiving the parcel. Please see our Returns Policy for more information
