Your model cyclist will be send to you in a box inside a jiffy bag. There will be a Model Cyclist sticker on the packaging , please let us know if you don't want this for secrecy !
We use first class royal mail for all our pre painted figures, for more expensive or larger custom orders be use a courier or tracked and signed for delivery. Delivery prices will be calculated for you at the checkout stage according to the quantity and type of purchase.
Overseas Deliveries
We use airmail or Airsure for most deliveries outside the UK, deliveries of small parcels up to 2kg. Airsure is trackable and requires a signature on receipt. For all large overseas deliveries over 1.5kg ( and up to 10kg ) we use UPS, this again is trackable and requires a signature. They may not be the cheapest but they are reliable.The prices are calculated at the checkout stage of your order depending on weight and destination.
Smaller items may be sent with parcel companiesor Airsure who will attempt delivery on a weekday without notice. Failed deliveries will be carded so that the customer has another opportunity to accept delivery or the parcel may be taken to a post office collection centre for you to sign and collect when convenient.
From the moment a carrier attempts to deliver the goods they are the customer's responsibility and the customer has to accept the goods when they are ready to be delivered.
Where the Customer does not comply with our attempts to deliver the goods we may, at our discretion, cancel the entire order.
Any delivery charges made are also applied again in the event of a return due to non delivery or a cancellation after the goods have been dispatched.
Special delivery arrangements can be made , these will incur an extra charge , please call for details. There are certain countries that we may not be able to deliver to.
