Our contract with you for the sale of an item is concluded when we have accepted your order and received your payment. Except where you have pre-ordered a forthcoming title and we have contacted you for payment information once it has become available we will send you an email to confirm that the sale has been concluded.
All orders for items in stock will normally be despatched the same day although some orders can take a little longer. If your item is not in stock we aim to despatch it by the due date published on the website.

We take care to describe and price the products on the website as accurately as possible. We may, however, change the prices of any of our products without notice.
