How can I pay?

We take secure credit card payments on line. We currently process Delta, Visa and MasterCard payments using PROTX as our payment processor.

For those customers who prefer not to enter their card details we offer the option of printing out your shopping basket, entering your card details manually and faxing your completed order to us on +44-(0)1274 900671. Alternatively you can post the order to us, accompanied by a cheque drawn on a UK bank account only. Orders accompanied by cheque will require 7 days clearance prior to despatch.

Is it safe and secure?

Yes. All payments are protected and processed through PROTX. When the order is placed on the website, credit card numbers are encapsulated using PROTX's own encrypted and digitally-signed protocol, including 128 bit SSL encryption. They are only decrypted after they reach the PROTX computer. They are not held in clear text on any web site, and we do not keep a permanent record of your credit card details. We also use address and cardholder verification, Verified by VISA and Mastercard SecureCode to help prevent fraudulent transactions.

Do I have to pay VAT?

Yes if the delivery address is within the EU. In the EU VAT (Value Added Tax) is charged on the movement of goods regardless of who pays for it. VAT rates do vary from product to product, with some products being exempt from VAT. There are currently 3 rates of VAT:
- a standard rate, currently 15%
- a reduced rate, currently 5%; and
- a zero rate.

So any goods delivered within the EU are liable to VAT even if the purchaser is in the US. If, however, you are having goods delivered outside of the EU then any VAT on the products ordered will be deducted during the checkout process.
