Our international orders are normally shipped via Airmail to the destination country and then via your local postal service. Within Europe orders normally arrive within 5-7 days, to the USA between 5-10 days and to the rest of the world anywhere between 7-14 days. As with parcels sent within the UK, some parcels can take slightly longer due to postal delays.

Please note that we cannot be held responsible for items delayed in the postal system as this is beyond our control.

Additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by the recipient. We regret that we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. For further details please contact your local customs authority.*Please note we are not in a position to refund any customs/import duty paid.
