| Shipping And Handling IMPORTANT: We always try and give our customers the very best service. If you need your goods in a hurry, please use the EXPRESS service. All orders placed on REGULAR or SPECIAL shipping options take their turn in the order that they arrive with us and could take up to 5 WORKING DAYS to be processed.Our current Shipping arrangements are as follows...We have three UK methods of shipment available. Regular, Special or Express. Regular will usually be the cheapest option and will use the postal service for smaller consignments. Special is NOT a prioritised service, but will use Interlink Express to deliver for all consignment sizes. Express IS a prioritised service, where we will undertake to dispatch your consignment THAT DAY for all orders received AM (wherever possible). If placing your order PM on an Express shipment, it would leave on the NEXT working day. Shipment is on a Next Working Day service.All UK MAINLAND shipments for orders exceeding £400.00 (EX VAT and carriage) now benefit from FREE shipping.For Non-UK shipments we have one method, which utilises the Airmail system for small consignments and either Interlink International or RH Freight for larger consignments depending on destination and weight of consignment.Fuller descriptions of the services are below.UK consignments on our Regular service are shipped via Royal Mail on their 1st class or parcel rate for the weight up to 1Kg, then revert to Interlink Express. The tariff below is a guide to these prices...Parcels up to 500g in weight £1.99501g to 999g £4.001 - 1.5 Kg £5.002 - 2.9 Kg £5.503.0 - 4.9 Kg £6.005 - 7.5 Kg £7.497.5 - 10 Kg £7.9910Kg+ at 24p/Kg therewafterExceptions and variations to this are as follows...Mainland UK (Express) is a prioritised service which only dispatches via Interlink Express. We will prioritise your order over others received which do not select the Express option. This does not guarantee a Next Working Day delivery, but with orders placed AM we will do our best to ship that day. The Express shipping charges schedule is different from above. It starts at minimum £8.49, reaching £12.99 at 25Kg with 27p/Kg thereafter.Mainland UK (Special) is an interim service which uses Interlink Express rather than the postal service for all deliveries. It is slightly more expensive up to 1.5 Kg then very similar in price to our standard rate thereafter. It is NOT a prioritised service. Your order will be shipped in the order it is received. It simply avoids delays from use of the postal system for smaller consignments.UK Islands & N. Ireland (Ex Channel Islands). 1Kg to 20Kg (in a single parcel) shipped via Royal Mail 1st class or Standard Parcel Service (up to 5 working days typical). Over 20Kg or mukltiple parcel consignments under 20Kg shipped by Interlink at their prevailing offshore rates which start at £14.00 up to 10Kg with 85p/Kg thereafterUK Channel Islands. 1Kg to 30Kg shipped Parcelforce via the Royal Mail on their prevailing Channel Islands Rate (as available).
