Full refund will be given if customer is not satisfied. Payment accepted in Euro, Sterling and US dollars (cheque or money order or bank-to-bank transfer) or by Paypal. Orders in the €100 area and above will be sent by registered post (i.e. with tracking). Tracking on cheaper items, if desired, will cost an extra €8.00 - this is the postal service charge. Please let me know when ordering. As I am mailing from Ireland, international orders may take from five to more than 30 working days to arrive due to the current pandemic conditions. I do not control the international postal service and cannot guarantee delivery times.
