Invoicing and Payment
Once a sale has been agreed in principle we will email a detailed invoice to the client showing full product, contact and bank information. Payment by bank transfer is preferred within the UK because it is quick and generally incurs no charges. This helps us to contain costs and to offer competitive prices on our stock. However we do of course accept payment via UK cheque and also have the facility to accept credit card payments from the UK and overseas. For overseas clients we accept payment via bank transfer or credit card.
