Shipping

Within the UK

Smaller and lower value items will be shipped Free of Charge. If required, and at an extra cost, I offer next day delivery which will be fully insured and be issued with a tracking number by Royal Mail. In most cases, a signature will be required so you will need to give a delivery address where you will be in attendance during working hours. I aim to despatch all items between 2-3 working days. I will need to quote on this service.

Medium sized items that require specialist packing will be sent by courier for a charge of £20.00 per item.

Larger and high value items will be shipped by freight handlers with specialist knowledge of the antique business. I will contact the company, who are third party, arrange a quote or quotes and then pass on this information to you. The freight handler will contact you to arrange delivery timings and payment. Because these items will need to be carefully packaged I aim to despatch all items between 4-6 working days.

As a guide delivery for larger items can usually be arranged with freight handlers within one week. The fee for this service is usually £50 for most freight items. For deliveries within the London area, there is generally a £50 flat fee. However, if I am undertaking delivery personally and you are local to me and/or are ordering more than one item this can be reduced. Please contact me on 07725 419469 to arrange.

Collection

I am also happy to arrange for the collection of goods by you personally. Purchases must be collected within two weeks of the date of sale from either my address in Richmond, London or in Surrey, near Dorking. Please contact me on 07725 419469 to arrange.

Worldwide Shipping

I do not currently offer a standardised shipping service because costs can vary considerably due to size, weight and destination. I can definitely arrange for delivery on all items, however, wherever you are in the world and have found that to save on costs it is best for me to shop around amongst shipping companies for the best and most economical service. Please contact me with an address including postal code for a quote.

Customs

Please note that any customs fees, taxes and /or duties incurred at the time of delivery are not included in the sale and are the sole responsibility of the buyer.
Please note that delays in delivery can occasionally occur due to international customs and are beyond my control.
