Prices

Unlike most mail order goods, there is no tax (VAT) on books in Great Britain. Therefore, the price to you is the same, whether you are in Great Britain or any other country.

To order

Website:

Click on the 'Add to Basket' buttons by each item you require, and then go to your basket. Please add the details requested, which include your name, address and contact details. You can pay by PayPal, or by debit/credit card via Stripe. The relevant postage charge (see below) will be applied automatically; for overseas orders, this depends on the country and the number of books ordered.

By phone:

Telephone 01270 811059 (from outside the UK +44 1270 811059), and provide name, address and contact details, and debit/credit card details.

By post:

Send your written order to the address below; please provide name, address and contact details, including a phone number so we can contact you for payment by card. Please do not include a cheque or postal order, as we don't accept them.

Postage Charges

UK
£3.95, irrespective of however many items you order at one time.

Charges for overseas orders reflect the actual cost of posting average weight books, the number of books, and the destination country:

Europe:
1 book GBP £5.95; 2 books £10.75; 3 books £12.05; 4 to 6 books £13.00
Additional charges may apply for 7 or more books (please ask).
We do not despatch goods to the Russian Federation.

USA:
1 book GBP £10.00; 2 books £23.00; 3 books £28.50; 4 or 5 books £31.20; 6 books £35.65
Additional charges may apply for 7 or more books (please ask).

Rest of World:
1 book GBP £10.55; 2 books £18.20; 3 books £22.00; 4 or 5 books £29.50; 6 books £33.50
Additional charges may apply for 7 or more books (please ask). We do not despatch goods to the Russian Federation.

If the actual cost of overseas postage is significantly less than these amounts (for instance if your books are lighter than average), we may at our discretion refund the excess.

Overseas orders are nearly always posted by air mail.  But please ask if air mail is essential, and we will advise if there might be an additional cost.

The postal charges above are applied automatically to every website order, but must be added for orders by phone or post.

Despatch
We normally despatch orders within 2 working days of receipt of order, but occasionally it may take longer. We will advise you if despatch will take more than 10 days. If you have ordered more than one item, they may be despatched separately, but you still pay only the one postage charge.

Goods exported from the UK

We cannot accept liability for any additional charges that may be imposed once the package has left the United Kingdom. On delivery, you may have to pay customs duty, import duty, tax or administration charges (including on orders within Europe). We cannot advise on these possible additional charges, so before you order, you should check with the authorities in the country of receipt.
