Do you ship worldwide?

Yes, if you would like to place an order to a country not mentioned in my shop policies please contact me for a shipping estimate. **Import restrictions vary greatly around the world so before ordering please check that the item you are ordering can be shipped to your country. I will not take responsibility for items not received because of import restrictions, or for any extra costs incurred.**

Which shipping service do you use?

Smaller items will be sent via Royal Mail in the UK and Royal Mail tracked and signed for international buyers. Larger items will be sent via courier, who provide end to end tracking for all deliveries. **Please read item descriptions carefully, if your order is being sent by courier you will need to provide a telephone number**

What are your business hours?

I am usually available Mon - Fri 8am - 6pm (GMT) if you have any questions about your order. I am not usually at my desk at the weekends but feel free to get in touch and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

What packaging materials do you use?

The vast majority of my packaging materials are recycled. My family and friends keep all of their boxes, jiffy bags etc for me and I also collect packaging materials from small businesses in my village which would otherwise not be recycled. I never buy new plastic packaging materials. I often reuse wine and spirit bottles for larger items - if this is a problem for you then please let me know when ordering.

What should I do if my order is damaged in the post?

I take great care packing all my items and you can feel confident when ordering fragile items that they will arrive safely. In the unlikely event that your item is damaged during shipping it is essential that you take photos of the damage to the item and any obvious damage to the packaging and contact me as soon as possible. If possible you should photograph the damaged item before removing it from the packaging. Please don't try to repair it or throw away the packaging before discussing the issue with me. I am unable to offer any refunds or returns on damaged items without photo evidence that the damage occurred during shipping.

A vintage Rabone Chesterman tape measure. The tape measure is 66ft long and comes in a sturdy metal case which is covered with brown leather. The case bears the three triangles logo, which represents Hockley Abbey in Birmingham, where the Rabone Chesterman factory was located.

The leather case is quite worn but still sturdy and the cloth tape measure is quite discoloured, although not so much that you can't see the numbers. Obviously, the markings on this tape measure are only in imperial measurements.

This is an older model of this popular tape measure than you will generally find - it has brass findings rather than steel and the company name does not appear on the case as it does with newer models.
