Heavy, bulky or large item deliveries

In the majority of cases, heavy, bulky or large items incur the delivery charges outlined above. Please note that for particularly heavy or multiple items, delivery charges may vary due to the nature of the extra postage and packing that is required. Where this applies, it will be clearly flagged in the product description and when the item is added to your basket.

Our no quibble 30-day returns guarantee means that if for any reason you are unhappy with your purchase, you can return it to us in its original condition within 30 days of the date you received the item, unopened (with any seals, corks, screwcaps and shrink-wrap intact) and we will issue a full refund for the price you paid for the item.
