Store FAQ

• Why on earth are your prices in US Dollars ?

  Alas it is our wily colonial cousins who are responsible for what they would call the "storefront" and until such time as they acknowledge that the rest of the world exists we may well be stuck with their currency. At time of writing: £1=$1.5465 $1=£0.6466

• Do you accept orders placed outside of the US?

  Impertinence! We accept orders placed from anywhere within the confines of the solar system! Though we must admit that shipping charges beyond the orbit of Saturn are quite significant.

• Where does this store ship from?

  Why, London of course! That great steam driven metropolis, that smoke shrouded, finely machined jewel of a city. Why would we ship from anywhere inferior ?

• What is this store's return and exchange policy?

  In the rare case of a malfunction caused by an error in manufacture we will of course offer a full refund or exchange, provided the goods are returned to us in an appropriate condition. If you accidentally feed it to your pet tiger then I fear there is little we can do.

• How long will it take to receive my order?

  Orders placed within the the bounds of this Sceptered Isle will be dispatched forthwith and should arrive after no more than seven days. Alas, order placed from the far flung corners of the globe may take significantly longer. If you have not received your items within 28 days it is well worth communicating with this office by electronic mail, telegram or carrier pigeon, as you see fit.
