General Information

Our charges for shipping and handling aim to recover what it costs us to send items. For simplicity we have a series of price bands based on the estimated total weight of the order and destination.

The weight of the order is calculated as the total weight of the items ordered plus 10% for packaging materials. The postage and packing charge includes the cost of the postage plus an allowance for packaging materials.

VAT is added to postage charges to UK & Europe at the same rate as the goods supplied (or pro rata for mixed supplies)
