Please tell me about postage.

The postage cost depends on the weight of the parcel. The more it weighs, the more it costs to send. The website will calculate the weight and cost of your order. Please add items to your cart, look in your cart, and then you can see the total cost of your order and the postage options. You do not have to be registered or logged in to do this.

When you send us your order it is instantly charged the total price. Because of this you cannot ever add to orders or have other orders combined. You can cancel an order in your account provided we have not started to pack it.


Everything under 2kg is sent by Royal Mail.

Everything overs over 2kg are sent by Parcel Force.




Overseas orders that weigh under 2kg are sent by Royal Mail and will normally be delivered by your country's postal service. Usually they only have to be signed for if you select Trackable, Registered or Airsure options. If these options are available they will be shown in the shopping cart.

Overseas orders that weigh over 2kg are sent by ParcelForce. They must be signed for.

We do not use carriers such as UPS or TNT or Fedex etc because of the high cost. If you have an account with any carrier that will collect from us we can use them to send your order. You pay for the goods as normal including the postage cost. After the parcel has been collected we will refund the cost you paid for the postage. We do not refund until the order has left the building in case there is a problem and we have to send via the post. Please note that we cannot tell you the cost of the couriers charge for your order. Please state in Additional Comments that you will be arranging a courier AND also send us an email.

Items sent by Royal Mail will normally be delivered by your country's postal service. Items we send by our Parcel Force may be delivered by your country's postal service or they may have arrangements with parcel delivery firms in your country. Please speak with your country's postal system if you need to get this information before you order. We have no control over the firm that delivers your order.

All parcels over 2kg are sent by airmail. We get a large discount from Parcel Force which we pass on to you. This means that you get your order sent by air mail usually for less cost than other firms send by surface. All parcels can be tracked and must be signed for.

For orders under 2kg we still offer you the surface option. If you are in Europe surface can be more expensive than airmail and if it is not it is usually only a few pences cheaper. For airmail parcels you can select International Signed For. These are tracked until they leave England. In some countries they can be tracked to your door. For some countries we also offer Airsure which is fully trackable door to door and usually a bit quicker than International Signed For. Both must be signed for.

When you are logged on and have added items to your cart you can see your postage to ANYWHERE in the world!
