Preparing your order

Orders are prepared and dispatched on business days. Deliveries generally take place between 9:00 and 19:00. We recommend using an address where someone is available to receive the parcel.

If an item is located in one of our stores rather than our central warehouse, please allow up to two additional business days for us to prepare your order. Once dispatched, you will receive an email with your tracking information.

Delivery estimates begin when the order is dispatched and do not include weekends, public holidays, customs procedures or delays outside the carrier's reasonable control.
