Shipping Rates
How much you pay for shipping depends on both how much you spend, and the destination. Rather than have a complex, difficult to explain system we generally offer two separate options, Standard and Express. The exact amount charged is dependant on the size of the order and the destination and will be displayed during checkout..
All goods are shipped from the UK and are subject to customs checks which can delay parcels, these are entirely outside of our control and all shipping times are estimates but are liable to change due to import checks.
Shipping to USA/Canada
If you wish us to use Express option, this is via UPS and is generally 3 to 5 working days (subject to customs clearance). The standard which will generally be USPS (normally 7-14 working days to the US/Canada) but at certain times of the year this timescale is extended due to heavy demand.
Shipping to the rest of the world
Generally all orders are sent via the Postal Service, however in some cases and Express Shipping option can be requested and a quote will be provided, dependant on order size and destination, please contact us for further information.
Please note that we are unable to ship to PO Boxes or Forces PO Boxes via UPS or the Postal Service without confirmation that your parcel will be accepted as parcels require a signature and a returned parcel will be subject to a charge.
Please note deliveries may require a signature.
Payment
In line with many other online retailers such as Amazon.com, payment is taken at the time your order is placed. Otherwise we would have to store your credit card details in order to take payment when your order is dispatched. For security we never have direct access to your credit card details. If a company takes payment when the products are dispatched, ask how they store those details, and ask yourself who else has access to them, their staff? their cleaner? the hacker who has just cracked their web server and is now downloading everyone's card details.
Whenever your order changes status, you will be automatically sent an email to your registered email address. Please check your spam filters!!!!!!
Orders placed before 12pm GMT will generally be dispatched on the same day, (Monday to Friday), assuming everything is in stock at the time. If you need an item for a specific date/event please contact us before ordering. If an item is out of stock we will send you an email to tell you what is going on. As we manufacture most items in house we generally have a maximum stock turnaround of less than a week, but at busy times this can be longer, but we will try to keep you updated.

Duties and Taxes
Some countries may apply additional taxes and or charges for products shipping from the UK. We have no control over these and all Duty, Taxes and Handling fees are the responsibility of you the importer. For more details on any possible import duties, taxes or restrictions you will need to contact the relevant authorities in your own country. There can be delays due to customs clearance and this is something we have no control over.
Refused Deliveries
In the event of a package being returned after failed delivery attempt(s), a delivery refusal, a package is returned to us due to taxes and or duties not being paid, or it not being deliverable due to incorrect or incomplete address, then we reserve the right to charge a restocking fee of 20% plus any additional costs incurred by us in the return of the items. Refunds will not be issues until items have been safely returned to our offices. Redelivery will be chargeable should the parcel still be required.
Returns
All of our power boxes and premium electrodes are covered by a Lifetime Guarantee.

However in the unlikely event that you find a fault, then please contact us before returning any item.
All sales are considered to be full and final. We hope you will understand that we cannot take back any item that has been opened or used intimately as we have to guarantee the item is new and unused, and this would be impossible to do if we accepted things of that nature back, think about how you would feel if you were not able to guarantee that your item had been used by someone else. So once the seal is broken its yours. Of course if it has failed then we will repair or replace it.
If you are not sure that what you are buying is what you want then please talk to us BEFORE making your purchase as we do not to offer an 'on approval' or 'sale or return' service, and all sales are considered to be full and final.

The cost of returning the goods to us is not our responsibility and rests with the you purchaser.
Please Note we consider any item that can be used internally or directly against the skin to be an intimate product, as is any item that can come in contact with body fluids. These items cannot be returned if any hygiene seals have been broken. Any return must obtain an authorisation number prior to return.
