Important Notice for European Union (EU) Orders​

Temporary Pause on Direct EU Shipping

We have temporarily paused direct shipping to European Union member countries due to new EU Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) packaging regulations. As a small business, we are currently learning more about these complex regional compliance rules and evaluating options to bring back direct EU shipping in the near future. We deeply value our EU customers and appreciate your patience and understanding while we navigate these updates! 

​ Notice for US Orders:

Due to US customs regulations, Royal Mail requires all duties to be prepaid when we create your shipping label. After you place your order, we will contact you directly to arrange the payment for these specific customs fees before your package ships. We appreciate your understanding while we work to automate this process.

Notice for Non-EU & Worldwide Destinations​

For all non-EU international destinations, any local VAT, customs duties, or handling fees issued by your country's border control are the sole responsibility of the customer.​

Shipping Destination Not Available?

We constantly review our shipping destinations to expand our reach worldwide. If your country is not currently available in our list at checkout, please get in touch with us.

We are more than happy to look into the possibility of adding your destination. If we are unable to clear standard postal routing to your country, we will gladly arrange an alternative courier service and provide you with a custom shipping quote!

Notice for Overweight, Multiple, or Oversized Orders:

Our standard flat shipping rates are calculated to cover typical individual retail orders. On rare occasions—such as when purchasing multiple heavy items or exceptionally heavy books—the order may exceed standard carrier packaging sizes and weight limits.

If your combined order exceeds standard international postal allowances, we will contact you directly with a custom courier quote to cover the additional shipping costs before your parcel is dispatched. You will always have the right to proceed with the custom quote or cancel your order for a full, immediate refund.

We would like you to know that currently we are working on upgrading our shipping systems to fully integrate international customs and tariffs, ensuring a seamless worldwide delivery experience. This page will be updated as soon as these improvements are live.
