Shipping
All orders are processed during normal business hours (Monday-Friday).
All orders are usually shipped within 1 to 3 business days after your order is processed. UK orders usually take an additional 3-5 days to arrive. Overseas orders delivery times vary depending on the shipping option you chose.
For UK orders we offer First Class, Second Class, First Class Signed For, and Second Class Signed For shipping options.
Please Note: Royal Mail First Class and Second Class are NOT traceable services. Please select ‘Signed For’ for traceable shipping.
For European, US and the Rest of the World orders we offer International Economy, International Standard and International Tracked & Signed. (Just a little tip: Int. Economy sometimes arrives just as quickly as Int. Standard and is much cheaper. We don’t guarantee that though, it’s just a little tip to try and save you some money on shipping.)
The delivery times from Royal Mail for International Economy are:
Delivery aims
Western Europe in up to 2 weeks
Eastern Europe in up to 5 weeks
North America in up to 6 weeks
South America, Africa and Asia in up to 8 weeks
Australia in up to 12 weeks
Please Note: Royal Mail International Economy and International Standard are NOT traceable services. Please select ‘International Tracked & Signed’ for traceable shipping
The system charges the shipping price per item to cover orders that contain an In-Stock title and a Preorder title as they have to be shipped separately therefore incurring two separate shipping charges.
But please note that I always refund the shipping difference if you have ordered multiple In-Stock titles as they can be shipped together which incurs only one shipping charge.
