Ordering
When will my order be processed?
Usually same day, or next working day if placed in the evening, weekend or a bank holiday.

Will a confirmation be issued for an online order?
Yes, an email confirmation is sent, followed by an email sales invoice upon processing.

Will a confirmation be issued for a telephone or mail order?
Yes again, an email sales invoice is issued upon processing.

Will VAT be added to an order at the checkout?
No, our prices include VAT. We do not add any further charges to our pricing.

So nothing to add to the prices shown then?
No, VAT and delivery is included as shown upon each product detail page.
 
Why do you show the RRP (recommended retail price) for each product?
This is the typical 'High Street' price, to emphasise the saving given by 'Our price'.

So are the prices shown the UK's lowest?
That's our aim upon our branded products, but with over 800 models it's hard to guarantee it!

But I've found a lower price elsewhere?
Oh dear, just complete and send us a Pricewatch request and we'll do our best to beat it!

Security
So is it safe to order online and provide card details?
Yes, your details would be captured securely upon our Thawte 128bit secure server.

Will the details remain stored upon the server indefinitely?
No, but securely held for around 6 months in case of order variation.

Will my name and address details be passed to any other organisation?
Only our manufacturers, to enable your order to be fulfilled (not for marketing).

So I assume I won't be plagued with any sales or marketing calls?
Correct. You will only be contacted in the event of an order query or issue.
 

Delivery
Delivery throughout the UK Mainland is free then?
Yes, throughout mainland England, Wales and Scotland.

Are there any exceptions?
Unfortunately for some such as Eden, Duckpaddle and Shedstore ranges. See product pages.

So can you deliver to Ireland, Isle of Wight / Man or the Channel Islands etc?
We may be able to, so contact us advising your location and product of interest.

How about an export order?
Not at this time, but contact us for advice.

Why are delivery periods given in working days?
Our manufacturers tend to work this way, thus we pass on their timescales in good faith.

A delivery period says "up to 15 working days", how accurate is this?
As accurate as possible at time of order, however delivery can and often occurs sooner.

So how will I know when the delivery will be?
Our manufacturers telephone our customers generally two to three days in advance.

What happens if I cannot accept the date given?
No problem, just advise the manufacturer that a revised date is required.

Can a weekend delivery be accommodated?
Usually not, as our manufacturers deliver weekdays only. Contact us if a problem.

Can a delivery time slot be agreed?
Only at our manufacturers discretion. Ask when being contacted with delivery date.

Does someone need to sign for the product on delivery?
Ideally yes, to ensure the product is correct, in good condition and acceptable.

But I don't want to take a day off work waiting?
Okay, just provide email authority for the product to be left and that you accept liability.

The delivery period has passed and the goods have not been delivered?
Call us straight away. A manufacturing or delivery issue may exist of which we're unaware.

Something is broken or missing?
Call us within 7 days, so that we can arrange replacements with the manufacturer.
