If you are arranging your own couriers, please make them aware that they will be required to bring some form of proof of purchase, I have an alarming amount of couriers whom ring up (or turn up unannounced) to say that they are collecting something and no name. Without the correct proof (such as invoice or your name even) I will turn them away. In addition, your courier will be asked to sign a goods received notification declaration as all my items are handed over in their pristine condition - saves any mis-understandings later on!
Funds must be cleared prior to collecting unless otherwise agreed with us.

***I do not make money on shipping, this is an exasperating issue, so please do not assume that I have added a few extra ££'s on, as this is highly insulting. I do not charge for packaging, but all items are sent out appropriately packed.
***The above list indicates one item shipped only, for additional items carried at the same time to the same address, please add a further £40 for each item added.
***Delivery is DOORSTEP, GROUND LEVEL only, so ensure that you have sufficient help when taking delivery of big & bulky items, carriers are NOT insured to lift items into your home, so please do not ask as refusal often offends.
***Delivery times are given as guidance and is dependent upon CLEARED payment for your item, do also ensure you have provided contact telephone number upon payment otherwise this WILL add delays to your delivery should you fail to not provide this information.
***Many carriers are working towards being Eco-friendly, therefore will try and group deliveries in together, do your bit to help the environment and help to ensure that we leave a wonderful world for our children & grandchildren! You can help by simply accommodating given delivery dates by the courier.
***Make sure that any damages/discrepancies are noted down at the POINT of delivery and on the DELIVERY note BEFORE you sign and the driver leaves. Damage claims cannot be raised with ANY carrier if you have signed for your goods and not marked down faults.
***Most deliveries will fall on a week day, so please ensure that you have provided a VALID TELEPHONE number as your delivery booking cannot be completed without one, likewise should there be a failed delivery, you may be subjected to a re-delivery fee.
AGAIN!!! Do ensure that you have correctly checked your item and marked down any faults prior to signing the delivery note as we are unable to raise any damage claims if this has not been noted down at the time of delivery.
*****IF YOU ARE NOT HAPPY WITH OUR SHIPPING TERMS, PLEASE DO NOT BID!!*****
Your carriage insurance covers for loss and damage of your item when it is in the possession of the appropriate carrier. Please do note that insurance does not cover for items of glass and mirrors, but rest assured I would never send anything out unless it was appropriately packed.
Should there be a problem with your item upon receipt, please email me at the earliest opportunity and I will raise this with the carrier.
