Delivery Services

Any delivery periods given are approximate and start from the date of despatch, not from the date of your order. Goods will be sent to the address given by you in your order. If you are ordering more than one item, your goods may be sent to you in instalments if certain items are out of stock.

If your delivery address is outside of the UK, you may be subject to import duties and taxes, which are levied once a shipment reaches your country. You must meet any additional charges for customs clearance. Please note, customs policies vary widely from country to country. We recommend you contact your local customs office for further information.

UPS:

From October 2011 we have replaced Parcel Force services with UPS Standard and UPS Express Saver services depending upon destination. UPS is a well known global company offering a modern and reliable delivery service with one of the best parcel tracking systems available.

Within the UK we have a flat rate 8.50 GBP per parcel to all areas of mainland England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. To most other destinations we have maintained a competitive rate.

Please note that UPS cannot deliver to PO Box addresses. Please ensure you submit a real address if UPS is selected.

For non EC countries (outside Europe) UPS delivery charges in store do not include import taxes or other fees such as brokerage. These charges (as and where applicable) will be collected at the time of delivery by the delivery agent on behalf of your local Customs department. You are responsible for paying your taxes and other fees if requested.

From October 2018 as part of our new agreement providing lower shipping costs for the majority of our parcels we have a new size limit of 1.5m which means we can no longer ship longbows or anything over 59 inches.

General Notes:

If delivery charges are displayed as "TBC" they will be calculated by a member of staff once we receive your order. Such orders will be treated as Quotation Requests and will remain on HOLD until you confirm your order via return email. To avoid this process, please select "Send Order Now" on the Checkout page. We will always select the most suitable delivery service relative to the size, value and destination of your order.
