DELIVERY POLICY
-------------------
Please note Saturday & Sunday are non business days for calculating shipping & processing time (we do often work at weekends to make items but cannot guarantee it). Processing time is the time to make an order before despatching.
BUYER"S RESPONSIBILITY TO PROVIDE A CORRECT & SECURE DELIVERY ADDRESS
- Please make sure the address on your order is correct and current as you will be responsible if an item is shipped to an incorrect address that has been provided on the order.
- We are unable to issue refunds or replacements for incorrectly addressed orders. Once an incorrectly addressed order has been returned to us by the postal services, we will contact you to arrange redelivery
- The cost of redelivery shipping will be the responsibility of the buyer.
- A buyer is responsible for providing a safe and secure delivery address that will enable them to receive their order.
PLEASE DOUBLE CHECK THAT YOUR SHIPPING ADDRESS IS CORRECT
- Because of seller protection rules we will only ship to the address on the order. If a different address is requested after order, we will unfortunately have to cancel the order and start again.
SHIPPING OPTIONS WITHIN THE UK
-------------------------------------------
STANDARD SHIPPING - Shipped via Royal Mail 1st Class - some items are sent Signed For depending on value and at our discretion.
This option usually arrives 1-3 days after despatch but can take longer as Royal Mail aims for this but does not guarantee the time scale.

When the contract is formed
................................................
This shop displays goods which are advertised for sale and gives information about them. By advertising goods we are inviting you to place an order. If you place an order, we are not obliged to accept that order and the contract between us will only be formed if and when we accept your order. Our acceptance of your order and the formation of a binding contract between you and us will take place when we dispatch the goods to you. Up until this point, there will be no contract in place between you and us, which means that neither you nor we will have any rights against or obligations towards the other, until the order is dispatched.
