Pre-Order

With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Pre-Launch

With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.

So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.

Any returns sent back requesting an exchange will be refunded in line with our returns process.

Orders placed using Klarna cannot be exchanged - if you wish to change items on a Klarna order, you will need to place a new order and return your original item for a refund.

Should you wish to avoid this delay, you would have to source your own returns postal service.
