POSTAL CHARGES AND PACKAGING
Royal Mail has recently increased its prices by margins of up to 120% resulting in unavoidable increases in my P&P prices. The company does, however, in my opinion, still provide the most professional and reliable service compared with its competitors. Please note that buying more than one item can, in practically all cases, give significant postal savings and make the P&P better value for money.
All our items are packaged to a very high standard using NEW re-cycled polystyrene chips and NEW bubble wrap to protect from damage. We also use brand NEW cardboard boxes. Our postage charges help towards the cost of these packaging materials.
POSTING
International Sales - we are happy to quote postage world-wide. In our experience it is incredibly rare for a parcel to go missing so we send standard Royal Mail Airmail Small Packets unless you ask for a different service (this is NOT a tracked service, is not 'signed for', and does not give 'guaranteed' delivery times - these services are available but are significantly more expensive.)
Our parcels are currently collected by Royal Mail every Tuesday and Friday and we aim to despatch all items where payment has cleared by the night before. We always get a certificate of posting - for items that fail to arrive or that are damaged in transit we will assist in making a compensation claim against Royal Mail (please look at the Royal Mail web site for details on maximum compensation paid). We will use Royal Mail Special Delivery if requested by you at time of purchase, there will be an additional charge. For overseas buyers please contact us to confirm postage arrangements and charges.
FEEDBACK
When we receive feedback confirming receipt of an item we will also leave feedback for you.
If you have ANY PROBLEM WITH THE ITEM, or WITH ANY ASPECT OF THE SERVICE WE HAVE GIVEN, then please CONTACT US prior to leaving feedback so that we can resolve the issue amicably. IF THERE ARE NO PROBLEMS THEN PLEASE GIVE US 100% IN THE DETAILED SELLER FEEDBACK.
PAYMENT
For UK buyers we would prefer PayPal which is the fastest option, but we will accept personal cheques (remember there will be a delay in the cheque reaching us and in us forwarding the cheque on to our bank, and while the funds then clear through the banking system). We also accept postal orders and bankers drafts. For overseas buyers we can only accept PayPal.
