Import One Stop Shop (IOSS) for EU customers
We are not registered for IOSS so from 1 July 2021 customers from Europe who purchase from us will be required to pay customs charges when the order arrives in your country so that it can be cleared from customs and delivered to you. Please ensure you pay the customs charges as we would be unable to refund postage cost should the item be returned to us due to refusal to pay such charges.
We use the following shipping methods. These are all insured against loss and damage so you can buy from us with confidence.

Note:
The above guidelines for Royal Mail's services are obtained from Royal Mail website. Some areas require more day(s) for the parcel to be delivered.
During bad weather conditions, holidays, pandemics, or sale days such as Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Boxing Day, etc, the duration for 1st Class / 2nd Class Standard and Signed For can go up to 10 working days* after due date. Please be aware of such delays in case your order doesn't arrive within the delivery aim mentioned above. Items not delivered by their due date will require up to 10 working days before they can be classed as lost. During this time the item is not lost but simply still in transit on its way to you.
For the Isle of Man, Jersey and Guernsey we only provide Royal Mail's shipping services as couriers charge a handling fee, so to provide best shipping value we have restricted to using only Royal Mail's services for these locations.
We would like to request European customers to allow up to 25 working days* for delivery and the rest of the world customers 32 working days* for delivery as Royal Mail can take longer to deliver items due to reasons beyond our control and theirs (i.e. bad weather, holidays, customs). Items are NOT lost during this timeframe.
