Where do you ship to and from?

  • We aim to dispatch most items from the closest facility to your location.
  • Orders can be shipped to your home, work, or a friend's address.
  • Some items may arrive separately.

How much is shipping?

  • Shipping costs are generally included and cover both tracked shipping (where applicable) and packaging.
  • Once you have added an item to your order you may also be able to choose from a range of shipping methods.

Are there any additional fees for orders to the EU?

  • Many items are now dispatched from within the EU for quicker shipping and will include the appropriate Sales Tax
  • EU orders (for goods totaling up to 150 Euros) that ship from the UK include Sales Tax (VAT) so nothing else should be payable
  • EU Orders from the UK for goods valued up to 150 Euros are covered by the EU "IOSS" (Import One-Stop Shop) agreement.
    • Our system manages the VAT, so there are no additional fees to pay upon delivery.
    • The applicable VAT rate applies to the delivery address.
    • In your order confirmation you will be given an IOSS code as proof of VAT payment.
    • In the unlikely event the courier requests further VAT payment, confirm it has been paid quoting the IOSS code.
  • EU Orders from the UK for goods valued over 150 Euros are not covered by the IOSS scheme, so payment is managed in two parts.
    • In the shopping cart VAT is removed so there is less to pay upfront.
    • We also show the estimated final payment that may be due when the order is ready for delivery (including the VAT rate for your location and any fees payable).
    • In most cases any additional payment can easily and securely be made online.

Will I get charged other customs taxes?

  • International orders (excluding those above) and any larger EU orders from the UK, may be subject to import duties and taxes.
  • Customs regulations can vary from country to country and frequently change.
  • While all reasonable steps are taken to comply with world shipping standards, additional customs taxes or duties may apply.
  • Charges are assessed by local governments and are not included in the order total.
  • Payment is the responsibility of the recipient and is usually required prior to delivery.

How will my order be packaged?

  • We do our very best to securely package products so that they arrive safely.
  • Small and medium prints are sent flat, with larger prints and posters rolled in strong tubes.
  • All other products are sent in specially designed heavyweight boxes.

When can I expect delivery?

  • In case of rare unexpected delays beyond our control please allow up to 7 days for Standard Shipping items to arrive.
  • International Shipping may take between 7-14 business days to arrive after dispatch due to customs clearance times.
  • We rely on a global network of shipping as well as local postal services to ship orders as soon as possible and will send an email when your order has shipped.

Can I track my order?

  • Tracking is not always available however if a trackable service is being used, the details will be included in the email sent when your order has shipped.
  • You can also check online if you have supplied a password to create an account at the checkout.

Tracking shows "delivered" but I have not received anything

  • If you are not in when your order is delivered the courier may leave your parcel with a neighbour, in a safe place or a local collection point.
  • When this happens, you should receive a notification advising where it has been left or how to re-arrange shipping.
  • If the package does not arrive within a day of the estimated delivery date:
    • Check with members of your household, neighbors, doormen and colleagues to see if someone accepted packages on your behalf.
    • Look around your area; couriers try to leave packages in safe locations. Typical spots include under porches, under benches, back doors, and around garages.
    • Look for an attempted delivery notice. If the courier feels it is unsafe to leave your package, the driver should leave a note.

What happens if my order is returned?

  • Occasionally packages are returned to us as undeliverable.
  • If this happens, we will contact you to check the shipping address and ask if you would like the item sent back out
  • Please note: We will only reship returned to sender items to the same, or revised, address once more
