Standard Shipping Information

We ship from Monday to Friday. Orders we send by standard shipping are handled by Royal Mail in the UK, or your local postal service if overseas. If you need faster shipping then choose UPS or DHL during checkout.

If you place your order before 14:00 GMT on a weekday, then we'll do our best to dispatch it the same day, however, at very busy times this may not be possible. You will receive an email when your order is dispatched.

Rates Table

Standard Royal Mail shipping costs a flat fee of £3.90 inc. VAT. We always ship using the tracked Royal Mail 24 service, which in most cases delivers the next day following dispatch.

UPS or DHL shipping provide a tracked service with e-mail updates. Pricing is based on the weight of the order and the destination.

Shipping to USA

We can currently only ship to the US by DHL Express.

Note that orders may now be charged import tax, additional tariffs and associated admin fees when they pass through US customs. Items sourced from China attract the highest tariffs - please contact our support team before ordering if you'd like to know Country Of Origin information of specific products.

Shipping to EU

After some early turmoil we're now seeing shipments to the EU being delivered smoothly with VAT and customs issues only occurring rarely. 

We are registered for IOSS VAT collection in the EU which means we will collect VAT (at your local VAT rate) on all orders with a value of €150 or less (excluding shipping) . This avoids couriers having to collect VAT at the border which was the cause of a lot of the delays (and admin charges) that we've seen.

If you do have any issue with VAT or customs then contact our support team who will be happy to provide any extra documentation or support needed.

Import duties

You may be liable for import duties, sales tax, or customs processing fees if you’re outside of the UK. It’s your responsibility to ensure you’re fully aware of the local requirements for importing goods from the UK to your location.

We cannot offer any refunds due to unexpected charges applied locally. We are required to include a commercial invoice with all shipments leaving the UK. We will never falsely report the value or contents of a shipment.

Courier surcharges

Please note that our shipping costs do not include surcharges which can be levied by couriers for customs clearance etc. For example, both UPS and DHL will charge a surcharge per line for orders over 5 items that need to pass through customs. Details of courier fees can be found here for UPS and here for DHL

Shipping to PO boxes

Please note that DHL and UPS do not ship to PO boxes.
