We aim to deliver U.K. order within 2-3 days of receipt of your order and International within 5-10 days. Unfortunately we cannot guarantee that every item is in stock permanently, although we do try our best. If an item is out of stock we will advise you of an anticipated delivery date.
Duties and Local Taxes
Purchasers are responsible for any duties and/or taxes levied at the point of entry into the destination country.
Damage and Loss in Transit
Occasionally, unfortunately, things do get lost or damaged in transit. If this happens with your shipment, please advise us and we will supply replacement goods as quickly as we can. However, since we never knowingly ship damaged goods we need your help to try to recover our costs from the carrier wherever possible.
If you do receive damaged goods, please retain all relevant documentation so that an insurance claim can be made against the carrier's insurers. If you receive a battered parcel, note the fact on the delivery note, even before you open the package to examine the contents. if you are unable to open the damaged package in the presence of the carrier, make sure that you sign for it as 'damaged package; goods not yet inspected' or similar to warn the carrier that a claim may be forthcoming.
Whatever the circumstances, please contact us by email or telephone with as much detail of the damage or loss as you can provide, as soon after delivery as possible, so that we can arrange replacement goods and start following up the carriers.
Please do not return damaged goods, unless and until requested to do so as this may incur additional costs unnecessarily.
