Online Prices

Prices displayed on our website are only accurate at the time of writing and can therefore be considered a guide price. We reserve the right to change our pricing at anytime without prior notice. If in doubt please contact us to get the most up to date information on prices and stock levels.

Stock Levels

We use a stock levels indicator on our online shop. We will endeavour to ensure these are correct but now and then there may be errors. We will contact you as soon as your order is placed if your item is out of stock.

Special Orders

When we order something for you that is not in stock we are at the mercy of our suppliers and or manufacturers. We may indicate when the particular item will arrive but in reality we can only confirm its arrival when it has actually landed in the shop. Our standard order procedure involves calling customers as soon as the stock arrives in store, so it is not necessary for you to chase up. However, if you would like an update on the status of your order feel free to call or email any time.
