Our Despatch Policy:
We want your book to arrive in the best possible condition. We therefore only use the highest quality packing materials with all orders bubble wrapped and despatched in heavy duty cardboard book mailers to ensure maximum protection.
We also guarantee safe delivery - should your book fail to arrive or become damaged in transit we will refund your purchase price and delivery charges in full (please see our Trading Policies for details).
Whenever possible multiple purchases will be combined into a single package to minimise delivery charges.
Our Post & Packaging Charges:
Our packing materials cost approximately 75p per delivery (depending on the size of your books - packaging for the largest titles costing up to £1.15). The bulk of our p&p cost is determined by Royal Mail - please use the following link to check the cost of Royal Mail deliveries to your location:
Despatch Rates & Estimated Delivery Times:
The following table summarises delivery charges for packages weighing up to 3.99Kg. Packing and postage rates for overseas deliveries weighing more than 2.0Kg and UK deliveries weighing more than 4.0Kg will be quoted individually.
We aim to post all orders for which payment is received by 12:00pm (Monday to Friday) the same working day - however when attending auctions this is not always possible and despatch may occasionally take up to 48 hours. Orders for which payment is received after 12:00pm are posted the following working day.
Due to excessive delays experienced by some customers we no longer send any of our books by surface mail unless specifically requested by the purchaser. All prices for international shipments are therefore for airmail delivery only - deliveries typically arrive within 4-5 working days for Europe and Scandinavia and 5-10 working days for other countries.
If you would like us to quote surface delivery instead of airmail please contact us by using the email link in the left hand panel on this screen. Please note though that past experience has shown that surface delivery can sometimes take up to 110 days to arrive.
