Available on a ‘Sold As Seen’ and collection only basis.
CLICK ‘N’ COLLECT
Due to the fragility of some of our products we have made the decision to only offer these as CLICK ‘N’ COLLECT, to avoid damages. However, if you live within 10 miles of our store, please give our Customer Service Team as call as we may be able to offer a local delivery by one of our team for £4.95.
DAMAGES & SHORTAGES

If for any reason you are unable to check the contents of your order on delivery please sign goods unchecked. Unfortunately, after 7 days any claims or shortages cannot be made due to courier insurances. So if we are notified of any damaged goods or shortages outside beyond the 7 days, we may not be able to offer a replacement item or credit.
