Can I add an item or change my order after I have placed it?
Once you have received an order confirmation from us, your order will have been inputted into our back office system and can no longer be amended through the website. If you do wish to amend your order please contact us, and as long as your order hasn't been sent to the warehouse for packing we can update your order for you. Please note: we cannot guarantee changes to an order once it has been placed as it may be already processed.
Do you offer credit accounts?

What happens if I order an item which isn't in stock?
- A discontinued item is no longer in stock - in this instance, we will cancel the item and you will not be charged for it. The website should notify you this at the point of order, but occasionally an item will show as in stock when it isn't. In this case we will cancel the item at point of dispatch and you will not be charged.
- A current item is no longer in stock - in this instance the website will tell you the item is being held on a back order, however the final charge on your order confirmation will include the out of stock item. When we dispatch the order, we will only take payment for those items on the delivery note. If the backordered items total less than £35 it will automatically be cancelled. Otherwise the goods will either be added to your next order or sent, pending payment, once all items are collectively in stock.
The payment authorization on your card will hold funds for the total order with your bank, but we will only take final payment for what we send you. This means, you will only pay for what you have been invoiced and this can be less than the original amount authorized. Since items move in and out of our warehouse very quickly, our stock figures can change between order placement and dispatch, therefore this system is in place to ensure you receive as much of your order as possible.
No payment is taken for backordered items until the stock is ready for dispatch and there will be no carriage charged on complete delivery of backorders to the UK mainland. There will be reduced carriage charges to all other UK & EU postcodes.
