We would recommend that you return your items via tracked post. Please clearly state on the invoice the reason for return, and whether you require a refund or exchange. We are only able to exchange items for the same product.

Personalised Items are non-returnable. Some goods are non-returnable for hygiene reasons. Please note that this does not affect your statutory rights.

If a full refund including original delivery costs is required then the entire order needs to be returned back to us within thirty (30) working days. However, you will be responsible for the cost of returning the goods to us. If a refund is payable to you then we will process the refund as soon as possible, and, in any case within thirty (30) days.

The goods do not need to be in their original packaging; however, in a sellable condition, and at your own cost and risk.

You have a legal obligation to take reasonable care of the goods while they are in your possession. If you fail to comply with this obligation, we may have a right of action against you for compensation. This applies to all goods that are returned.

We will process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case within thirty (30) days of the day we confirm via e-mail that you are entitled to a refund for defective goods.

If a refund or reimbursement is payable to you, we will transfer the money using the same method originally used by you to pay for your purchase. If we cannot refund via the original payment then a cheque will be raised to the address on the order.

2. Delivery Policy

We pride ourselves on being able to offer unbelievable prices and promotional offers on a massive range of products. As such, we focus on minimising our delivery costs. If value is important to you we recommend our Standard UK delivery service but your order may take longer to receive. If you need your goods quicker, please select our Express Services and your order will be priority picked, dispatched and sent via one of our premium couriers.

3. Delivery Services

We mainly use Royal Mail Tracked 48 Service for goods which weigh less than 2kg, all other goods will be delivered by a Courier. 90% of our deliveries are made by Royal Mail as we think they give the best service and cover all areas of the UK.

Most of the service can take 2 to 4 days to deliver in mainland UK, our dispatch time for single books can take up to 24 hours from point of order.  How ever multiple orders can take additional 2 days as books can be in one of ten warehouses based in Leicester.  To consolidate multiple items in a cost effective manor we need to bring the books to our central hub and then ship out to you.  Hence the delay.

Express option - We Do NOT provide an express service option due to Covid-19 and all Networks are extremely busy and can not guarantee delivery times.
