How long will my order take?
Orders are normally sent out on the same day or next working day. We hold stock of all the items we sell, but we do occasionally run short of stock. In these circumstances there is sometimes a delay while we await our next delivery. If there is a possibility of an extended delay we will always try to inform you by email so that you can chose to wait or change/cancel your order.
What is your delivery charge for the UK?
We have a standard, flat rate delivery charge for delivery to a UK address of £3.50. This is even on heavy and bulky orders, so if you order more, you still pay the same low delivery price! This is automatically added to your order on the shopping cart when you select “Delivery to UK” so that you can see exactly what you will be paying.
Do you ship overseas?
We happily ship to most countries, although there are a number of products that we cannot post outside of the UK due to restrictions that are in place on the postal services that we use. These products are marked with “UK Only Shipping”
Delivery to Europe is charged at a flat rate of £11.95 and to the rest of the World at £18.95, except for the USA which unfortunately costs us more to ship to, so the charge for shipping here is £19.95. These prices are regardless of the size or weight of your order. The shopping cart will automatically add this delivery charge to your order when you select the appropriate delivery option.

What delivery service do you use?

All international parcels are sent on services that require a signature and offer online tracking in case your order goes astray.
What happens if I am not at home when the parcel is delivered?
Please ensure that the delivery address you have given is one where there is usually somebody available to accept the package. If the Post Office/courier is unable to deliver on the first attempt, they will leave a card so that you are able to collect the package directly from your local sorting office/depot.

We try to use as much recycled packaging as possible. We may use cartons/boxes or jiffy bags depending on what is appropriate for the order and what is currently available. However your item is packed it will always be sent with sufficient packaging to reach you safely.
