PayPal Express Checkout & PayPal Credit


When you select PayPal as a payment method for your order, you will be prompted to log-in via PayPal during the checkout process to confirm your payment. The PayPal button on our checkout page is hosted by Braintree who is a company of PayPal. This ensures that customers are always taken to the correct and genuine PayPal sign-in page. You can verify our association with Braintree here.

Bank Transfer


As bank transfer payments are not received immediately, this payment method is made available for orders over £200. For orders unders £200, customers who either have a history of purchasing from us, are located in a country from which we do not accept credit card payment, or have other mitigating circumstances preventing them from making payment via card are able to request to pay by Bank Transfer.

To request bank transfer payment please create an account on the site and then contact our support team via the following link: Contact Us

The following conditions must be met when paying via bank transfer:

  • Your payment confirmation receipt must be received within 24 hours of placing the order and funds must be received in full within 72 hours.
  • All sender & intermediary bank charges must be covered by the sender and our bank must receive the amount of your order in full and in the currency that other was placed


Please note that stock is not secured or reserved until we receive cleared funds. Orders unpaid after 72 hours will be cancelled.
