Stock Items

!

Kindly note that all products listed on the website are available in stock, unless otherwise stated. New releases and other products may be listed as Available Shortly or Temporarily Out of Stock which should be taken to mean that the items will be available in stock in approximately 2 weeks. The website would be updated once the products become available again. You may pre-order items which are out of stock but obviously these will only be mailed out once the shipments come in. Orders are generally processed by the next working day.

VAT

!

Kindly note that the VAT rate has reverted back to 17.5% as set by the Government as from 1 January 2010.

VAT is applicable to all UK and EU customers but is automatically deducted at the checkout for customers outside the European Union.

Prices and Payments

!
All prices on this web site are quoted in pounds sterling and are correct as at the last update of the website. By clicking on 'Pick your currency' at the top right of the window, you will be able to view the prices in your preferred currency. Prices are subject to change without notice; however, once an order is placed, the price is guaranteed.
 
Prices quoted are inclusive of  VAT. For orders outside the EU, there will be a reduction of 17.5% which reflects VAT in the UK.
 
Payments may be effected by credit card, postal orders or by cheque (UK residents only). Where payment is effected by cheque, please note that goods will be dispatched once the cheque has been cleared.
 
Items will be dispatched within 1 to 7 days of receipt of payment. If El Greco Miniatures is awaiting shipment of items or an item is out of stock, notification by e-mail, post or phone will be made within 7 days of receipt of order.

Postage and Shipping

!

Ordering through our online shop is very simple. Just click on the shopping cart and the item is added to your basket. Once you have finished shopping, click on Basket ~ Checkout in the top menu and proceed to Checkout.

As explained in our Terms and Conditions, online payments are processed via Paypal, for which you do not need to register if you are not a regular Paypal account holder. Alternatively, if you are a UK customer, you may print out the online order and send a cheque (payable to El Greco Miniatures).

Postage is automatically calculated at the Checkout as follows:

  • 10% of the total cost of the order for UK customers (sent by Recorded Delivery);
  • 15% for European customers;
  • 20% for worldwide customers (17.5% VAT is automatically deducted from cost of items).

Postage is automatically calculated at the Checkout. We have recently changed our postal charges, as follows:

 

Destination Order Total Postal charge 
UK  £0 - £70  10%
  £70 +  Free
EU  £0 - £70  15%
  £70 - £100  8%

The Order Process

Payment by credit card

 

On our website you can effect payment using several options. If you are paying directly by credit or debit card, just choose the required card type (Visa, Mastercard, etc.), fill in the required details (cardholder name, card number, expiry date and security code), followed by your billing address and delivery address if this is different. All this is processed on a secure site (through Globecharge) and El Greco Miniatures has no access to these card details.

 

Should you wish to do so, we can also accept credit/debit card payments over the phone.

 

You may also wish to pay by credit card through Paypal. Payment through Paypal is free. You are not required to register with Paypal if you do not wish to do so. For more information about Paypal, please visit this website: www.paypal.com.
