Delivery Information
To protect our customers, we carry out manual fraud checks on each payment we receive. This can sometimes cause delays when we're experiencing higher order volume.
Opening Hours
We operate only on weekdays, Mondays to Fridays, between 10am and 4pm GMT. We are closed on bank and public holidays. Orders are only processed and dispatched during our opening times. We will dispatch any standard delivery orders in 1-3 working days.
We can deliver to your home, work address or to a house of multiple occupancy. We cannot deliver orders to a PO Box, airports, and certain similar non-residential addresses without a delivery point.
Royal Mail couriers deliver to the location written on the parcel and not the named recipient.
Due to logistical issues, we are currently not shipping to the Channel Islands, including Jersey and Guernsey. We are sorry for the inconvinence.

Royal Mail now uses geographical tracking to record the exact delivery location. This gives Royal Mail precise proof of where and when the item was delivered. They use this information to help with tracking inquiries and to make fair, informed decisions when reviewing claims for lost items. Their information confirms that the item was delivered correctly. It provides clear proof that the recipient accepted the item.
