Royal Mail gives an average of 2-5 days for post to arrive on the UK mainland, this information is from the postal service and is not guaranteed by our company. If you are in a rush to receive your order we offer a next day by 1PM signed and tracked service from Royal Mail; this can be selected when choosing your delivery options during purchase. (If this option is selected on a Friday, your item will be delivered on the Monday.)
