We have developed our shipping policy to offer you the best value for money with the greatest flexibility. The price charged for shipping is calculated based on the weight of the items ordered together with the delivery method employed. In most cases, you are able to select your preferred delivery method for your order based on how quickly you want it and what you want to pay.
For example, if you just want a few paints and brushes, you can select 1st Class Post and you will only be charged £1.00. Providing you order before 3pm, Mon-Fri for a UK mainland delivery, in most cases, you will get the order the next day.
Alternatively, say you order lots of items; a Scalextric set, the latest cars and some trackside accessories, you can select 1st Class post at a charge of £4.99 or Parcelforce Guaranteed Next Working Day delivery at a charge of £6.99.
