You can sign up at any time but in order to receive the current month's box you must sign up by midnight on the 13th of that month or your subscription will start the following month.

We ship out boxes once a month like a magazine subscription. Boxes start to go into the post on the 13th of every month. Dispatch lasts for about a week (there are a lot of you!) and we use Royal Mail.

Once sent, UK subscribers can expect their box within 1-10 days. Please note: our boxes do NOT have tracking numbers.

For continuous subscriptions and subscriptions lasting more than one month, please visit our website at prudenceandthecrow.com.

Our books are vintage. This means they are at least 20 years old (in most cases) and have been pre-loved. We won't send you anything that's completely falling apart but we do think old books are beautiful so please bear that in mind. Have a quick search around on social media and you'll soon get a feel for what we are offering.

You can purchase them at the same time but the book subscription box will be sent separately at the time stated in the listing. The rest of your order will be dispatched within 5 working days.

Yes in most cases! And even better, there's no need to sign for it! Simply go about your daily business, and return home to find your exciting post waiting happily for you on your doormat! Or, wherever your postbox leads to. The box doesn't automatically go for doormats unless gravity leads it that way.
