Full payment must be included with your order, unless you are an
established account customer. We accept payment by cash, cheque, bank
transfer, or most
major credit or debit cards, Mastercard, or Visa. To
pay by card, please quote the full card number, expiry date, security code
(usually the 3 digits found on the signature strip on the reverse of the
card for Mastercard and Visa and name and address of the
cardholder as shown on your statement. We are happy to supply banking
details on request if you wish to directly transfer your payment into our
account.
Overseas customers
We prefer payment by credit or debit card as listed above, cheque drawn on
a U.K. bank or by cash in pounds sterling. If payment must be made in a
foreign currency or by cheque drawn on an overseas bank, please add £15
(or the equivalent) to cover the bank costs we incur in converting this.
Spread Payment
We are happy to consider spread payment on orders in excess of £500.00 to
assist larger purchases from the Items Selected From Stock lists only.
Payment would normally be split over 2 or 3 months, dependent on the items
and value involved, and the goods would be despatched upon receipt of the
final payment. For further details, or to discuss specific requirements,
please call us.
