We try to ensure that all items on the website are in stock although inevitably sometimes we do run out of stock of some items. When we sell out of a product we will either remove it from the website or mark it on the website as "awaiting stock". Alternatively, if we allow the purchase of a product but have marked it "Stock Arriving -Date-" then you may include that item in your order but your WHOLE ORDER will only ship when all goods are in stock.
If in the exceptional circumstance that we take your order for an item, but run out of stock prior to your order being dispatched, we will backorder for you. We will endeavour to email you with the option to cancel your order if you would rather not wait.
We accept Visa (including Visa Electron), Solo, Maestro (Switch) and MasterCard. You can also pay by cheque or from your PayPal account.

We trade in sterling (GBP). Any figures shown on the website in other currencies are for guidance only.
