Payment and Delivery

All stock advertised for sale on this website is available for viewing at our premises, subject to clients notifying us at least 24 hours in advance and arranging a mutually convenient appointment (the majority of stock is not stored on the premises for security reasons). We prefer to meet all our customers in person at our premises and to transact business face to face but recognise that this is not always possible, so all items on this site may be purchased mail order for delivery in the UK and Europe.
