Payment

Payment issues & options

What should I do if I have problems with my payment?

If you encounter any payment-related issues, please verify that the information you enter during our secure checkout process is accurate.

The cardholder's name should precisely match the name on the card, as should the billing address and postal code. 

Please be aware that some UK banks employ a two-step authentication process that might result in declined card payments. 

Should you continue to face payment challenges, we invite you to reach out via our Contact Us page.

Did my payment go through correctly?

If you didn’t reach the order confirmation screen, or if you haven’t received an order confirmation email, there is a possibility that your payment was not successful.

A successful order email will reflect the status 'PAID.'

If you’ve received an email indicating that your order status is 'ORDERED,' or if you observe this status in your order history, your order has been unsuccessful.

Should you require assistance with your checkout process, please send an email via the Contact Us page, and we’ll respond as soon as possible.

Pre-order

Pre-order process & details

What is a pre-order?

A pre-order item is a product that we’ve secured from the manufacturers, but we’ve not received the physical stock yet. When you purchase a pre-order item, it ensures that you’ll be one of the first people to receive it as soon as it arrives in our warehouse.

Please note that pre-order dates are provided as a guide and may be subject to change. If we become aware of any delays, we’ll keep you updated.

How do pre-orders work on your website?

All pre-order items must be paid in-full at the point of order (Buy Now, Pay Later options, such as Klarna, are not available on pre-order items). Please note that pre-orders may be difficult to cancel, as they often arrive in our stock earlier than the estimated delivery dates.

How do I know if a product is available for pre-order?

All items that are available on a pre-order basis will be clearly marked as such and will include an estimated date that it will be in stock (this date may be subject to change).

Are there any discounts or promotions for pre-orders?

We don’t offer discounts or promotions on pre-orders as we prefer to keep prices universally low across the site to avoid any confusion.

Payment & charges

When will I be charged for my pre-order?

All pre-order items will be charged at the point of order. Please note than Buy Now, Pay Later options, such as Klarna, are not available on pre-order items.

Can I pay for a pre-order in installments?

No, sorry. All pre-order items have to be paid in full at the time of ordering.

Shipping & delivery

When will my pre-ordered item be shipped?

You’ll be given an estimated time of arrival (ETA) on the website when you pre-order the item. This ETA may be subject to change, and we’ll let you know if this does happen. Once we have it in stock, you’ll receive it within 2 working days.

Is the release date guaranteed for pre-orders?

No, the pre-order date should be treated as an estimate. If the release date does change, we’ll let you know.

What should I do if my pre-order is delayed?

If you’re happy to wait for the revised date, then you don’t need to do anything. If you’d like to cancel the pre-order item or change your order for something similar, then email us and we’ll sort that out for you.

Can I change the shipping address for a pre-order?

This is possible, but to eliminate the risk of fraud, we may ask to see proof of address before we authorise this. If you’d like to do this, please email us to discuss this further.

Order management

Can I cancel a pre-order before it ships out?

This is possible, but many pre-orders arrive in stock before the delivery date quoted on the website. Once an item has been shipped out to you, you are unable to cancel it.

What happens if a pre-order item sells out?

The website will always show the most accurate delivery date information we have. So, for example, if our initial pre-order allocation sells out, a new, revised pre-order date of when we expect to get the next shipment in will replace the original.

What happens if a pre-order item is discontinued or cancelled?

This very rarely happens, but if it does, our customer services team will reach out and either offer you an alternative product or a refund.
