Shipping Options & Charges

We aim to dispatch your order as quickly as possible; many orders will be dispatched the same day, while some items may take up to 72 hours to be dispatched. In general, if your order is £20 or more and you have opted for the Free Shipping, you should expect to receive your order within 1 - 5 working days of placing your order.
Shipping upgrades are available on most shopping carts for additional charge. How quickly you will receive your order depends on two things: 1) How quickly we can dispatch your order to you; and 2) Whether Royal Mail or a courier service is used to actually convey your order to you.

Where a shipping upgrade has been purchased delivery may be by a courier company.
So long as your address is in the UK, there are no delivery charges whatsoever if the total value of your order is £20 or more! However, if you wish, you can choose to upgrade your delivery method to either 1st Class (Royal Mail 24 service) for an additional £1.99 (per order) or upgrade to Guaranteed Next Day Delivery for an additional £4.95 (per order) - with this option a delivery attempt is Guaranteed for following day otherwise we refund your shipping fee (please see our Shipping Charges page for full details of this Guarantee).

Please note:-
- if you are not happy with your item because it is faulty or there is some other problem to do with the the performance or functioning of the item, and you do not give us the opportunity to put things right for you by sending a replacement, then this will be treated as a voluntary cancellation of your order and fall under the procedures outlined in the 'Cancelling or Returning your order' section above.
