WHAT COUNTRIES DO YOU SHIP TO?
We ship to a number of countries worldwide. We post inland (United Kingdom) and also to USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, China, Hong Kong, Japan, Mexico, Singapore, South Africa, Thailand, Norway and Switzerland. If your country is not shown, please get in touch with us and we can advise if we ship to your country. All items are shipped from our warehouse in the United Kingdom.
UPDATE: We are currently not mailing to Canada due to strike action in Canada resulting in severe delays. We will mail to Canada once strike action has ended.
I NOTICE THAT YOU DON'T SHIP TO MY COUNTRY. HOW CAN I PURCHASE FROM YOUR STORE?
We do not ship to some countries around the world. However many of our customers use the parcel forwarding company forward2me.com - click here for more information.
In partnership with forward2me, we can also offer you a 10% discount for your forward2me shipments. Just drop us a message.
DO YOU SHIP TO THE EU? WILL THERE BE VAT/DUTIES TO PAY WHEN I RECEIVE THE PARCEL?
We ship to some EU countries (including Southern Ireland, Belgium, Denmark, Italy, Netherlands). All shipments mailed to the EU are sent DDU (Delivery Duties Unpaid). All shipments will be held by the relevant customs authorities in your country until you (the customer) pay the VAT / customs duties that are due. We understand that if no payment is received from you, the package will be destroyed or returned to us. We will not be liable for any loss resulting from the destruction or return of goods where duties have not been paid by you. The duties vary in price by country, and we advise you to first check the rates in your country before purchasing from us.
HOW MUCH DOES DELIVERY COST?
Shop prices do not include shipping. Shipping is added at the checkout and is calculated on the weight of your order. Magazines vary in weight so the quickest way to calculate the shipping cost is to select the item(s) you want to purchase, click "Add to basket" and proceed to the checkout. Enter your address details and choose the country you would like the items delivered to. You will then see the Postage section showing the shipping prices. This can be done before you reach the final checkout stage. You can browse our prices on the Shipping Rates page.
