All U.K. deliveries will be sent via Royal Mail second class post; hence please allow an absolute minimum of 4 working days for delivery (totally ignore what eBay say). Royal Mail quote up to 4 working days for 2nd class dleivery but what they don't say is that very often it takes them longer longer than 4 days, why?

Please Note: As any other seller, we can only despatch the item promptly; after that we are at the mercy of the delivery service(s) and hence cannot possibly control the speed at which your item will arrive.

Quite simply there is no standard time, we have had items delivered from the U.K. to the U.S.A. in 4 days , we have also had them delivered in 4 weeks and everything in between. It would be fair to say for international buyers - do not expect your item to arrive in just a few days, you will almost certainly be disappointed. Also: Ignore any "expected delivery date". This date is set by eBay, not us, and quite simply it will almost certainly be totally unrealistic. Why do eBay do that? We really have no idea.
