What you need to know about estimated delivery dates

We do our best to accurately estimate when your order will be despatched, however our estimated despatch dates are based on several factors, including your destination address, product status and it´s availability. We calculate the delivery estimates by taking our estimated delivery dates and adding the time it takes a package to travel from our London office to your destination address in the UK. Time and schedules are always measured in working days, where our working days are between Monday to Friday and do not include Saturdays, Sundays or Public holidays.

Generally all orders can be despatched on the next working day or scheduled for despatch for the date specified by you during the order checkout. Our cut off time is 2pm (GMT) for next working day deliveries and we are only able to despatch during the working day. Also note, that our working day does not include Saturday, Sunday and Public Holidays, but we will make every endeavour to ensure that your order is delivered on time. However, we accept no responsibility for late or failed delivery when this is outside of our control (e.g., due to a local postal strike). Your order may also be delayed if:

If you place your order before 10am (GMT), we will guarantee the same day dispatch and next day delivery, excluding Saturday, Sunday and Public Holidays.
