COVID-19 IMPACT ON DELIVERY TIMES (28/01/21)

We're still processing and dispatching ALL of our customers' orders as speedily as usual, and we dispatch daily, Monday - Friday.

Orders placed after 1pm (Standard/First Class) and 2pm (Expedited) on a Friday will be dispatched the following Monday.

PLEASE NOTE, HOWEVER, THAT THE COVID-19 CRISIS IS HAVING A SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON ROYAL MAIL DELIVERY TIMESCALES.

ROYAL MAIL 1ST & 2ND (FREE STANDARD) DELIVERY: These services are still being provided by Royal Mail, but significant delays are again being reported in transit time through the Royal Mail network. There is a chance that you may not receive your package within the expected timeframe - a tiny number of our customers' orders have been delivered late - so we ask for and appreciate your patience if delivery takes longer than expected.

ROYAL MAIL EXPEDITED SPECIAL DELIVERY:  RM have advised that they cannot currently guarantee delivery by 1pm next working day for this service, although Special Delivery items will still be prioritised and should arrive by end of next working day.  In some instances it may take longer for delivery, and more remote areas/the Islands will also not receive Special Delivery items the next working day at present.

Up to date details of Royal Mail service changes can be viewed on their website here.
