Making A Purchase
Making a purchase could not be easier. Just browse our store, and add any items that you wish to buy into the shopping basket. If you wish your item to be gift wrapped, simply select the giftwrap option and you will be asked to input a few details including your greeting for the gift card. After you have finished your selection, click on 'Checkout' and you will be asked for any info that we need to be able to complete the order. Our easy to follow delivery schedule is always on view so you can see our delivery costs at a glance while browsing our products.

We accept most debit and credit card payments. If you are shopping from outside the UK and using a card that has not been issued by a UK provider, then place your order and pay in GBP and your credit card company will convert the transaction to your own currency which will show on your statement. (Exchange rates and any fees, if applicable, will vary per card)

When confirmation of order is received, this is to indicate that we have received your order. It does not indicate that a contract exists between us. We will indicate acceptance of your order, and hence a contract between us, when we confirm that your item is still in stock and has been dispatched and we send you an invoice. We have included this term to protect us in the case that a mistake has been made in pricing, or we are no longer able to supply a particular product for some reason. In the case of a change of price, we will always contact you first to ensure that the price is acceptable.

All sizes quoted are approximate, all references to times are GMT and prices are GBP.
Shipping and Handling
UK Delivery - All our items are sent Standard First Class delivery by Royal Mail or courier for larger items (1-3 working days) and our delivery charges for this apply to UK mainland only. See our rates at the time of purchase. Items to be delivered outside these areas may take longer for delivery and may incur additional charges, for which we would inform you. We also offer Guaranteed Next Day Delivery to Mainland UK (Mon-Thurs) for orders received before 3pm or sooner if stated on the product page. (Excludes Bank Hols - see our Delivery Schedule section below for more details).

Rep of Ireland & Europe - Items sent outside UK are sent by Airmail International Signed For service (3-5 working days), as this service reduces the risk of items being lost in transit as items are signed for at the final destination. The delivery times are approximate as we cannot guarantee the postal service in other countries and we recommend you allow as much time as possible. Free delivery items are sent standard Airmail (no signature).

Dispatch times may vary on some items, such as Personalised Gifts, but it will tell you this on the product page.

BFPO - All items to BFPO and EU addresses may be checked by Customs. We cannot be held responsible for any damage if your item, particularly with giftwrap, is opened by customs.
Delivery Schedule
UK Delivery - Orders received by 3pm are dispatched the same day and delivered by Royal Mail First Class post - unless otherwise stated on the product page. While most items get there the next day, please note that Royal Mail advises 1-3 days for the delivery of first class post and we recommend that you order your gift up to 4 working days in advance of the occasion, in order not to disappoint the recipient. Applicable giftwrapped parcels will include a sticker stating 'Do Not Open Until......' and will have the date of the birthday etc on it, so you can send gifts in plenty of time ready for the event.

Orders placed after 3pm will be processed and dispatched the next working day and delivered by Royal Mail. However, if we are able we will continue to dispatch until the post has gone.

Orders placed after 3pm Friday, or placed Saturday or Sunday will be processed and dispatched on the Monday (except for Bank Holidays) and delivered by Royal Mail.

We do not ship out on Public/Bank Holidays or Weekends, when Royal Mail is closed.

For large/heavy items or multiple items to the same address, we may use a courier service, where a signature is required.

For any last minute presents we offer a Guaranteed Next Day Delivery service (see pricing on our delivery page). If we receive your order prior to 3pm on a Monday to Thursday your gift will be delivered before 1pm the next day (excl Bank Hols). Next day guaranteed delivery requires a signature upon receipt, however a card will be left if the recipient is out. Please note that Royal Mail does not guarantee delivery on Saturdays and therefore orders placed before 3pm on a Friday, for next day delivery will be guaranteed to arrive before 1pm on the following Monday (excl Bank Hols). Orders placed after 3pm on Friday will be dispatched Monday for guaranteed Tuesday delivery. If you wish for a Saturday delivery you can select Saturday service and pay the surcharged cost.

Please note some larger/heavier items are sent by courier for Next Day delivery and the cut-off times are earlier than 3pm, but this will be stated on the product page.

Please note that dispatch/delivery times may vary on some items, such as Personalised Gifts, but this will be posted on the Product page.

We will do our utmost to ensure that your gift is received on time. However, in circumstances beyond our control such as Royal Mail delays, postal strikes or force majeure we are unable to be held liable for the delay. We will also make delivery notes on parcels at your request, but cannot guarantee they will be noted by the delivery company.

Please allow extra time during seasonal peaks such as Christmas, Valentines, Fathers Day, Mothers day etc there may be a small delay in the dispatch of your orders, but we will always keep you updated and increase our dispatch system to reduce the risk of this occuring. There may also be a delay in the delivery, particularly at Christmas time as Royal Mail deals with the extra volume of seasonal deliveries. We will advertise last posting days for Christmas on our Delivery Page.

Non Delivered Goods - If you do not receive an item then we reserve the right to ask you to wait 15 working days before we re-dispatch the item, as Royal Mail will not classify a parcel as being lost before this waiting period. However, in most cases we will do our utmost to rectify any problems as swiftly as possible.

Please note that we will charge for any costs incurred and re-delivery costs of any items that are returned to us because they were not collected or a re-delivery was not arranged by the recipient on receipt of a card from the courier or Royal Mail, within 5 days or any other time period specified on the card. Please ensure your recipient is not on holiday before sending.

Please also ensure that you give us the correct delivery address, including postcode, as we cannot be held responsible for items that go astray due to wrong information given to us.

If you have asked us to put a note on your parcel to leave it somewhere, you do so at your own risk as we cannot accept responsibility for non-delivery in these circumstances.
