Not in UK and Just Ordering Spare Parts? Our regular shipping rates apply. We may be able to offer a lower shipping rate on some parts, if you feel that the amount is too high please place your order and then contact us - we will adjust it if possible or cancel the order if not. We no longer offer our low rate Worldwide Spares shipping option due to abuse by an increasing number of customers.  

Irish Republic: Almost all orders that fall into the free delivery option will be delivered by DPD.  Orders with lower value postage are generally delivered by the Irish Postal Service.

UK Highlands / Islands: We do not surcharge for delivery to these areas, unlike many of our competitors.  However, delivery is usually 2 to 3 days slower than for the rest of the UK.  Some brush paint and all Spray Paint cannot be sent by Royal Mail, so cannot be delivered to some addresses. Please see paint below.  

Deliveries of Paint: Due to new controls and regulations, all paint can only be dispatched to UK addresses, no paint can be sent outside of the UK borders. All Aerosol Paint and some Brush Paint must go by courier - and cannot be sent to some outlying areas - please read our Paint Info page for more details before ordering.   Economy paint deliveries are mainly by Evri or Yodel, express will be by DPD or Fedex.

Pre-Orders for Diecast Models: If you choose our Pre-Order (or Phone Me) payment option - where you are not billed until the models are released, we will charge £2.50 per dispatch for UK destinations (i.e. all the models that are released in one week count as one dispatch) if that dispatch is under £40, otherwise it will be posted out without delivery charges.  For Europe and the Rest Of World, we will charge at cost price (including taxes and packing materials).  Where you choose to pay in advance for Pre-Orders, postage will be as shown at checkout - this may save you money in some cases, but will mean that you may pay some months prior to release.  

Important Notes - Orders for outside of the United Kingdom:

VAT / Sales Tax: The rates for outside of the UK are substantially reduced from the actual shipping cost as this is subsidized by the UK Sales Tax (VAT) which you do not need to pay.  The total shown at checkout is the actual amount payable - no tax will be refunded as this is used to reduce the shipping cost charged at checkout.  Buyers outside of the UK will be billed local sales tax on delivery by the postal or courier company and should factor this into their purchase decision.

Large Items: It is unfortunately not possible to ship all larger items worldwide.  We do not ship the following outside of Europe: Radio Control Cars / Similar and RC Kits, Train Sets, Slot Racing (Scalextric / Similar) Sets.  We are also unable to ship outside of Europe any item which when packed has a total size (length + width + depth) in excess of 89cm except where the postage rate comes up as £49 at checkout - this is due to postal regulations and excessively high fees for international parcel services.

Model Kits: Some model kits (Airfix, Revell etc) are very large for their value.  It is sometimes necessary for additional shipping to be paid on these items to international destinations - if this is the case you will be contacted and the option of cancelling the order and receiving a full refund will always be one of the options open to you.

Body Shells for Radio Control Cars: When packed some exceed the maximum postal size of 89cm (length + width + depth of package).  In these cases, we have no option but to refund your order, since shipping will usually then be more than the price of the body shell.

Special Cases: We make a special case for large Diecast models - Large Corgi Aircraft, Truck/Haulage rigs, some Sunstar 1/24 model buses - these will be assessed and postage advised after checkout - with the option to go ahead with additional charges or receive a full refund should the calculated shipping fee be insufficient.
