The charges are applied to your basket and check out this is where you will always find the most accurate delivery charges.

‘Free Shipping!’ in the cart does not always mean free shipping, this label is used to describe a Click and Collect option which is of course free.

CLICK AND COLLECT SERVICE

Items on our website are available to be purchased and then collected from one of our 3 branches. This service is highlighted in the basket as ‘Free Shipping!’ as the cost of this is, of course, free, it does not mean that we will ship the item to you for free.

We transfer product between our branches on a regular basis so you should always be able to collect an order within a matter of days. We do however aim to keep most items in stock at all branches so collection can almost be available instantly if the product is in stock.

Please always wait for a confirmation email that your order is ready for collection from a branch. We do also ask that a copy of your invoice, a valid form of I.D and the card used for the purchase is brought with you for security reasons.
