Important Information:

Covid Delays

Please be aware that occasional there may be slight delays due to covid - these delays are minimal at the moment and we are seeing much better delivery times.

Shipping Costs

On checkout you will be shown the different shipping methods available, and the costs, before you make payment.

Shipping costs are calculated based on the total size and weight of an order at checkout.

All delivery times below are estimated timeframes and may be subject to change. Parcels sometimes experience delays on their journey and arrive later than expected.

You are responsible for knowing what you may or may not import into your country. We will implement any restrictions we are currently aware of. This also applies to any courier restrictions.

You are responsible for any location taxes where applicable. On all occasions you are the "importer on record"

If an order is returned to us because you have refused the delivery or have failed to pay the duties/tax, we will refund your order minus the shipping cost. Your refund will not be processed until your parcel has been returned to us.

European Union (EU)

We understand the confusion and frustration our customers have had over the past few weeks regarding shipping to the EU and we have taken steps simplify this process. As of now we will process all EU orders that qualify via IOSS. This means we collect and pay the tax on these orders and you no longer have to pay an import charge.

Orders under €150 will now have their tax collected at the checkout. We will pay this through IOSS to the relevant authorities.
This means you will no longer be charged import and duties to receive your order from us.

Orders over €150 will not have their tax collected at the checkout.
We will remove UK tax from your order at the checkout stage and ship your order via a duties unpaid method.
You will receive a charge from the courier for your order's import tax, duties and handling charges.
You may wish to consider placing smaller orders more often (jnstead of a single large order) to avoid additional charges.
