Pricing

All prices
shown within EU and UK  are inclusive of VAT. Prices may be subject to change without notice. 

If an item does NOT have a price, it is a new or special order item and a price and availability will be e-mailed to you as soon as possible. Please allow up 
to 10 working days for this, as it may take time to obtain information from our suppliers or producers..

Until we have confirmed the order to you no offer of sale is made. In the event that we decline to process your order we will contact you by e-mail to say so. 

The e-mail sent to you upon completion of your on-line order is merely an acknowledgement of receipt and is not a confirmation of sale. 

Shipping And Handling

Please see actual delivery charges for our telescope mounts or telescopes in our sales price list.

We reserve the right to charge extra for any order that is heavy or/and bulky or that has to be shipped over water or to certain difficult to reach or remote 
places.

Delivery Schedule 

Providing the item is in stock and that we receive your order before 12pm, your order will be despatched the next working day when possible. If the item 
you have ordered is not in stock, we will endeavour to ship in three to four working days from receiving. However, there may be stock issues with our 
supplier over which we have no control. It is also possible that you will get your item/s shipped out directly from our contracted producers.

In the event of an item being out of stock with our suppliers, we will contact you to let you know and where possible give you an estimated delivery date, 
thus giving you the option to proceed with the order or you can cancel your order for full refund of payment. 
(Please see our cancellations section for information on how to cancel an order.)

All goods are shipped via DHL. We are able to track all of our parcels sent by either method until they reach the delivery address.   Please try to ensure 
that someone is available to sign for your parcel, as we must have a signature upon delivery. If nobody is available to sign for the consignment, the courier 
will put a card through the letterbox showing a contact telephone number or collection desk. You will then be able to arrange a time when you will be 
available to sign for the parcel or you will have the option to take the card, along with suitable I.D., to your local depot and collect from there.

If you neglect to collect the parcel or re-arrange delivery as instructed on the card, we reserve the right to pass on the ‘return to sender’ charge plus any 
additional costs involved with re-sending the parcel.

If you need any item for a particular deadline, please contact us and we will try to endeavour to accommodate your requirements.

Special Orders Cancellations

If your item is particularly styled or designed to your specifications, we will reserve 10% deduction of refund in case of order cancellation announced by the 
customer within the given delivery time space. When the item has been delivered and the customer wants to return the item against refund, we will deduct 
30% from the given order value = payment, provided that the item/s arrive in perfekt condition and without any charge on us for shipping or handling.                                                       

You will be e-mailed with the option to cancel your order if you would rather not wait. (Please see our cancellations section for information on how to cancel
