IMPORTANT STORE ANNOUNCEMENT
Posted by james taro on
Don’t worry this is a positive post I promise! At the end of last year my family and I decided it was time to sell up and move to pastures new. Of course the process has been anything but smooth, BUT by the 25th of July we “should” be at long last moving!! So what does this mean for the store? Along with our house move I will be moving the business and workshop to a much needed bigger space. Plus as we are moving halfway up the country that commute would be killer. As you can appreciate there is...
Store Wide Price Review
Posted by james taro on
Seems like everything is going up in price at the moment and it feels like everyone is jumping on the bandwagon and whacking theirs up.

International shipping update
Posted by james taro on
Royal mail have recommenced international shipping as of 31st January. I have cleared the backlog of parcels that had built up over the past two weeks. While all that selected tracked shipping have been shipped as such, Royal mail have stated there may be a lack of updates on tracking as parcels pace through the UK.

International sending - Good news update

They have said the rest of the services should resume in the coming days, as soon as they do I can get to processing everyone's orders. We ship all international by tracked or standard services and as of yet these are still unavailable.
International Sending Update
Posted by james taro on
As previously noted Royal Mail have been dealing with a cyber incident which has hauled all international sending from the UK. Although you will still be able to place orders internationally I am unable to send, thus your order will be packed and awaiting the reopening of services. There does however appear to be a light at the end of the tunnel. There have been mumblings that the back log is starting to clear in their sorting offices and hopefully by the end of the week we will get the go ahead to start sending again. Thank you for your...
