Cards - Postage and delivery

We print and send our orders by Royal mail.
All our products are sent by First Class post (unless the special delivery option is selected at an extra cost). Costs are calculated based upon item size so the postage cost will increase on larger cards. If you wish to check the postage costs on a particular order then place the order in the shopping basket with the correct card size, quantity and address the site will then calculate the charge.

If you order cards to be sent back to you then the cost includes the extra packaging involved, they will be despatched in an outer envelope with blank envelopes inside. If you order a Large Card to be sent back to you, the postage will cost more than sending it direct because the size of the protective outer envelope adds to the postal cost.

You can send a card by UK First Class post on Tuesday 28th May. The Royal Mail advise that although 90% of First Class post in the UK will arrive the following day, unfortunately the other 10% can take up to three days from despatch to arrive. It is better for a card to arrive two days early than one day late, therefore we recommend you allow 3 working days for delivery to ensure your card is delivered before the date required.

Large Cards

Due to their size (just over A4), large cards are hand processed by the Royal Mail sorting system and we recommend that you allow an extra day for delivery.

The Royal mail state that 90% of UK deliveries will arrive the following day, unfortunately the other 10% can take up to three days which is out of our control. If possible, if you are able to allow three days from despatch for cards to arrive it will help to avoid disappointment. It is better for a card to arrive early rather than one day late. You can put a note on the envelope asking for it to be opened on a certain day. If your order has not arrived after three day please contact us.
