IMPORTANT:

Where "Next Day Delivery" is stated, this is not guaranteed, we are at the mercy of the carriers and as such, if their service fails, we cannot be held accountable. We will of course do everything in our power to assist in locating the parcel and achieving delivery. 

Throughout this site, the words 'Delivery' 'Carriage' or 'Shipping' imply delivery to the normal entrance point of addresses on UK mainland only.

Unless otherwise arranged, deliveries will normally be made at any time between 8.00am and 6.00pm, unless a timed delivery premium is ordered & paid for.

Deliveries to UK Offshore destinations are usually 2-3 day deliveries, and to Republic of Ireland and other EEC destinations 3-5 days.

We regret that Insurance restrictions prevent us shipping orders to North and South America.
