RECORDED DELIVERY is ONLY £0.75 (note that for orders over £49.99 you will not be able to select this option as it comes FREE with your order).
SPECIAL DELIVERY is ONLY £4.00 (note that for orders over £84.99 you will not be able to select this option as it comes FREE with your order).
SATURDAY SPECIAL DELIVERY is £6.50 - you may order this service any day of the week, and your parcel will still be delivered on the following Saturday. This service is always charged for because of its increased cost.
DELIVERY TIMES
SATURDAY SPECIAL DELIVERY parcels are delivered before 1pm on the first Saturday following the day the order was placed. Orders placed after noon on a Friday will be delivered on the second Saturday after the day the order was placed.
SPECIAL DELIVERY parcels are delivered before 1pm the day after the order was dispatched (please see dispatch times above). We recommend Special Delivery for all time sensitive parcels.
STANDARD FIRST CLASS MAIL - we have no control over the delivery of these parcels - delivery is subject to the Royal Mail's delivery terms, responsibility for delivery lies with the Royal Mail. In theory first class mail should arrive the day after dispatch - in practice this does not always happen - most parcels are delivered next day and all parcels normally arrive well within a week. Please allow one week from the day after dispatch before contacting us about non-delivery of standard first class mail parcels. We deal with claims of non-delivery sensibly and swiftly.
If your parcel is Time Sensitive you should always elect to pay for Special Delivery - we charge you less than it costs us to help you to do this - Special Delivery does incur a fee, but what of the cost of loosing a sale because the Royal Mail has failed to deliver your parcel by the date you needed it?
STANDARD SECOND CLASS MAIL - we only use second class mail for very small orders - is those parcels that value under £7.99 - and we strongly recommend that you spend the 50p we charge to send these parcels out by first class mail. Delivery is subject to the Royal Mail's delivery terms, responsibility for delivery lies with the Royal Mail. Please allow 10 working days from the day after dispatch before contacting us about non-delivery of standard second class mail parcels.
