POSTAGE AND DELIVERY TIMES (U.K.)
Back to top

The following applies to orders placed from this website and paid online:

DELIVERY 3 to 6 DAYS
(postage usually £3.50, a heavy order might cost £4.00 to £6.00)
This service is for Royal Mail Packet (plus Recorded if valuable), or Courier if heavy.
- summary: this is our standard service, most orders arrive in 3 to 4 days.
- detail: our routine tends to be: orders are sent one working day (Monday to Friday excluding Bank Holidays) after we process them, and we usually process them the day we are paid. It then usually takes 2 or 3 days (including Saturdays but not Sundays or Bank Holidays) to reach you, but it can be as quick as 1 day or as long as 4 days, this is not a guaranteed service. All this is quite a variation in time, so we pick an average and say, "

DELIVERY USUALLY NEXT WORKING DAY
(postage £10.00)
- summary: we can usually send the item the same working day and delivery is the next working day for mainland UK.
- detail: to see this week's deadlines scroll back to the top or click here.
Royal Mail Special Delivery is not guaranteed on Saturday, it depends on your postman, if he knows you are open on a Saturday he should deliver it, otherwise he'll wait until Monday (or Tuesday if Monday is a Bank Holiday).
