Posting Items
Good morning!

'Since we started posting the boxed sets early in August, one or two have taken as long as eight weeks to deliver!

Some are taking two or three weeks in the Uk alone as sporadically different postal depots and members of the postal service take official or unofficial action. It can be that some will go on for a few weeks before reaching their destination and yet other parcels arrive the next day!!!

We have a series of postal strikes planned over the next few weeks, and I am certain the odd package may be delayed.

In a nutshell - We appreciate your patience and would ask you to give a little extra time when ordering.

thanks again

Phil
