Deliveries are normally made between 8.30am - 5.00pm Monday - Friday.
3.2. New Service: 1st Class Not Recorded for orders between £1 and £110: If this service is selected, the order will be sent via Royal Mail 1st class post, but as it is not a Recorded service, we can accept no responsibility if the goods are not delivered or are late.
3.3. Please inspect your delivery and report any goods found to be damaged or faulty as soon as possible.
3.4. Please allow 7 working days for delivery (from the date of placing your order) before reporting your order as undelivered. Most items are available for delivery within 7 days of your order. If we are unable to supply you with your goods within this time, we will aim to contact you to let you know and give you a revised delivery date. You will be given the option to cancel or amend your order if this is the case.
3.5.
