This
item is due on a container (see bottom of page for final delivery
instructions!!!)
Please note
that when we sell items quoting "Item is due
on a container..." this means the items have not yet reached
the uk, the times quoted on the ad are
anticipated docking dates into the uk and a set
time for smooth customs clearance, unfortunately however delays can
sometimes occur in shipping and it is advised to always allow 21 days from
latest quoted date on ad for delivery to your home. This is to allow for
unforeseen delays in customs clearance etc and possible shipping re-routes
which are beyond our control. Approximately 5% of our items are subject to
this delay. Please take a little time to read the feedback comments on our
account, you will see the vast majority of people have delivery much
quicker than quoted, however we do have delays as mentioned and to avoid
debates later it is very important that you only bid on the understanding
that on rare occasions you may have to wait up to 11 weeks for delivery.
If
this small chance of delay is not agreeable we ask you not to purchase/bid
on this item in order to avoid dispute at a later date.
Container
shipping can also sometimes be quicker than quoted, as mentioned above you
may have a pleasant surprise when the item arrives in advance of the quoted
dates, due to the current volumes we are operating we are unable to hold
items if the container arrives sooner than quoted, we will dispatch
immediately on arrival of the container and we will email or telephone when
your items are dispatched, therefore please be aware the items may be
faster than quoted.
Due to the unpredictable nature of shipping and very long
distances involved, there may be a period of some weeks following purchase
and payment when you will not receive any contact from us re your delivery.
Please do not worry about this period of what may seem like inactivity, we
will in fact be working very hard as always to ensure the speediest
possible delivery.
Please
note it is essential that we are made aware in advance of dispatch of any
holiday dates that you may have if items are quoted due on a container. The
delivery may be in advance of the quoted dates, thus we urge you to forward
the dates to avoid the carriers calling when you are not available.
Unfortunately
due to the erratic nature of shipping we will not be able to forward
updates unless you email us, with this in mind ask you to email us if
updates are needed and always to email in the sixth week and query the
whereabouts of the particular vessel containing your item. We will be glad
to email our shippers to obtain a firmer date if possible.
Please be sure to
check your spam filter if you do not receive a reply from us.
The payment
for this item will be required in line with all other items on our auctions
and the dates quoted will be from date of payment clearance, (ie paypal or credit/debit
card within 5 days of purchase/auction end) and once the items are safely
through UK customs and into one of our depots we will email or telephone
with more precise delivery details in line with our standard delivery
instructions.
