Refusal of deliveries and missed deliveries.

By placing an order with us, you are entering into a contract to accept the goods and services we provide. Refused, unwanted, or missed delivery attempts resulting in a return will be refunded to you less the original shipping fee, and a return delivery fee of £10 once the order reaches us. Should your order have originally been sent with free shipping, a refund will be made less £15.99. These costs are to cover the fees and work involved in processing returned orders, and to cover fees passed to us from our carrier. In addition, unwanted/refused deliveries from companies, orgonisations and schools may be subject to a 20% restocking fee.

Restricted Postcodes / areas

Please also be aware that the following postcodes are considered ‘restricted’, and should your postcode be shown below it may be subject to a manual surcharge or refusal to supply. Due to the difficulties in supplying some areas with age-restricted products or overly large goods, we may need to contact you to arrange an additional shipping and handling fee to supply your order. Please ensure that you supply current contact details so we can easily contact you to discuss options.

* Standard Free Service [Free above £70.00 as an option] - This service is available to all non-restricted UK postcodes and for non-postal surcharge goods - if your postcode is a restricted one, we will need to contact you as there may be a cost involved. Some items (very few) may have a surcharge and do not qualify for free shipping due to size or volumetric weight - this will be displayed under the product in the basket. Parcels are sent by Royal Mail or non-express services. This method sometimes requires a signature or proof of ID upon delivery. This is a no-rush service and LEAVES US WITHIN 7-10 business days (sooner when we're less busy).

** Standard - Typically sent with Royal Mail or non-express services. Typically LEAVES US WITHIN 3-5 business days.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you have ordered age-restricted goods we need to verify your identification and date of birth. This is usually a swift and easy process (once you've supplied your ID), but on occasions may take longer. It is vital that you supply a valid contact number and email address that you check frequently as if we need to speak with you and can't, your order may be placed on hold.
