PAYMENT & DELIVERY

Delivery

We use predominantly use Royal Mail and Parcelforce to deliver our goods. From time-to-time, and when in the customers best interest, we may use additional couriers.

The estimated date and time window for delivery of the goods is set out on the checkout page and again on the delivery page of our website.

If something happens which:

  • – is outside of our control; and
  • – affects the estimated date of delivery;

We will endeavour to let you have a revised estimated date for delivery of the goods.

Delivery of the goods will take place when we deliver them to the address that you gave to us.

If an item is reported as not arrived, we reserve the right to open an investigation with our chosen courier service provider before declaring the item lost. We similarly reserve the right to resend the item as opposed to issuing a refund. If an offer is made to resend but declined, we reserve the right to deduct 50% from the value of the refund in order to cover losses in such unusual circumstances. It is also company policy not to entertain future orders from customers placing non-tracked orders and reporting goods missing, until goods are returned to us as undelivered. All packages have return addresses printed on them so will not be entirely lost. In order to avoid this circumstance, it is at the customer’s discretion to use a courier delivery option at a small extra cost.

If we cannot deliver your goods within 30 days, we will:

  • – let you know;
  • – cancel your order; and
  • – give you a refund.

If nobody is available to take delivery, please contact us using the contact details at the top of this page.

You are responsible for the goods when delivery has taken place. In other words, the risk in the goods passes to you when you take possession of the goods. If you have instructed us to leave the goods in a safe place or with a neighbour and we do so, this will be deemed delivery and you will be responsible for the goods from that point.
