We provide worldwide postage/shipping and everything is fully tracked and insured. We deliver to the address provided at the time of purchase but not to PO addresses, as a signature is required upon delivery.
Some countries levy import duties and local taxes. Payment of these is the purchaser’s responsibility and beyond the control of The Antique Shop. When the container/parcel has reached the destination country, a customs representative will contact you for payment prior to delivery.
Import restrictions are applicable to some destinations, especially the import of products containing materials such as ivory and tortoiseshell. In most cases we cannot accept orders requiring shipment to any countries which implement such controls. For some items we can obtain permits which takes between 6 to 8 weeks, plus shipping and handling time.
