    Will Brexit increase costs?

    We pay European VAT (Value Added Tax) in advance for most EU countries. This means that our retail customers in most EU countries will not have to pay any additional charges, duties, tariffs or taxes on receipt of goods in their destination country. We do not accept any liability for any changes to EU policy or mistakes made by customs or couriers.

    The destinations which do not offer this service are: Andorra, Azores, Balearic Islands, Canary Islands, Corsica, Gibraltar (GB), Guernsey, Jersey, Madeira, Monaco, Norway, San Marino, Switzerland, Türkiye, Vatican City State. For these countries, we will refund UK VAT to customers required to pay on receipt.  

    Can I track my parcel?

    Becoming a registered customer allows you to track your order online via a Royal Mail or Parcel Force tracking number. Simply go to your account and log in to view your order status.

    Why didn’t I get a confirmation email?

    Most likely your order confirmation found its way into your junk email folder. Failing that, check your account and whether the money has been taken from your bank. The parcel is probably on its way to you even if you can’t find the email - if it has not been received after 7 days, let us know and we will track it.

    My parcel has not arrived yet. Who should I contact?

    We aim to deliver your parcel as quickly as possible. You can log in to My Account and view your order status using the tracking number. If the courier has attempted to deliver the parcel, they will have left a red card with instructions. If you have not received a red card, please allow 7 days before contacting us to check. After we have dispatched the parcel, we do not know more than you do - though after 3 weeks we can submit a claim to the couriers.
