Telephone Ordering

We accept telephone orders Monday-Friday 10am to 4.30pm

0845 226 5513

We only accept telephone orders for items marked 'in stock'on the website. Typical delivery time is 1-3 days.

Other Payment Methods

- Postal Orders and other payment types are not accepted as it's not possible for us to 100% verify the age of the purchaser.

Age Verification

Visa, Switch, MasterCard etc. are only issued to persons 16 years of age or older, therefore we use sophisticated fraud checks to confirm that the cardholder has placed the order which also confirms age of purchaser without us needing to contact the customer directly.
Electron and Solo cards can be issued to under 16's therefore we will make background checks to verify age, we can normally do this without needing to contact the card holder. If possible we would prefer payment by other card types to help reduce our workload and/or need to contact you.
Please be aware that falsifying our age declaration on the order form is a serious legal offence and should we determine you are under legal age to purchase items from this site at any time, we will prosecute to the fullest extent of the law.

Special Order Items are clearly marked on the site, it is normally possible to cancel special order items without any charges providing you cancel before they have shipped from the wholesalers. If you should decide to cancel after the item has shipped or return the item as it is not to your liking then there will be a 15% restocking fee. Wherever possible we use large genuine photo's of the items we sell, not professionally enhanced pictures like many sites, so you can see exactly what you are buying.

Special Order items typically arrive in 5-10 days to arrive, however, being special order they can be out of stock with wholesalers and subject to customs/postal delays so import times should be viewed as a rough guide.

Returns of Body Jewellery - Body jewellery will only be accepted as a return if the item is damaged or faulty on arrival. This is due to health and safety and no exceptions will be made to this rule.

Custom Made Items - Unfortunately custom made items are excluded from our cancellation/returns policy, however, where a problem exists we will work with the customer to the best of our ability to resolve any problem.

Guarantee - Most items on the site carry a 12 month guarantee against defective workmanship or software failure. Should you experience a problem with your item please contact us and we will contact the appropriate manufacturers/wholesalers on your behalf. Most manufacturers have a 'usage policy' which determines what is and is not covered, for instance, damage resulting from incorrect use would not be covered.

Privacy Policy

We take your privacy very seriously, view a privacy policy here which we abide by. Your statutory rights are not affected.

Anti-Fraud Protection

Retailers are often subject to credit card fraud, caused by criminals using stolen cards to place orders. We combat this in various ways including checking the address given as the 'billing' address on our order form against that which the credit card company has on file. If these do not match the transaction will be flagged for investigation and goods will not be shipped until the purchaser has confirmed their identity, do not falsify the order form, we will prosecute illegal chargebacks without fail. Also, where an alternate delivery address is given we may make additional checks before completing the order, wherever possible we prefer to ship to the cardholder address.

As we genereally only ship on pre-payment basis it is unusual but Where a situation has arisen where a customer has an outstanding balance payable but has not paid and we have been unable to collect monies from the customer within a 30 day timescale, the debt will be passed onto a debt collection agency which will incur a late payment charge payable direct to said company, at this time that company is Direct Route Insight Ltd

Blunting -

Recently we've had several requests for swords to be blunted, we now offer this on any item excluding carbon steel blades, just type blunted in the order notes. There is a �5 blunting charge per item, To answer a few questions - there's no visible difference to the blade, only that you will be able to run your finger alog the edge without fear of cutting yourself. The tip will only be rounded off if specifically requested as that will affect the overall look of the item. We do not offer refunds on blades which have been modified to suit your needs, bear in mind requested a blunted sword will delay the order by around 5 days
