DELIVER TO SHOP
For our UK orders we provide a free of charge in-store collection service. This option can be selected when you proceed to place your order through the Website.
Orders for collection at our store will be ready for collection approximately 1-2 days after the date on which the Order Confirmation email is received.
We will call you to let you know when your order is ready for collection. You will need to collect your order from our shop within 7 days of our call informing you that your order is ready for collection. If you do not collect your order within this time, your order will be cancelled, and you will be refunded via your original method of payment. Obviously, we can make exceptions but need to be notified if an item is to be held for more than 7 days.
A copy of your Order Confirmation email (printed or electronic) together with the card used for payment and a valid photo ID must be shown at time of collection. If you authorise somebody else to collect the Products from our shop on your behalf, they will also be required to present the information above.
