Please note: I do not accept responsibility for items lost in the post. If you would like your item sent by Recorded Delivery please choose that option when choosing your desired postage method. I retain Certificates of Postage for all items. When payment is made via pay pal, I post within 3 days. When by cheque I reserve the right to wait UP TO FIVE working days to ensure cheque has cleared. This depends on your feedback rating & the value of the items.
