Orders are shipped from our fulfilment centres in the UK, US and Netherlands every working day, with orders that come in before noon CET generally shipping the same day. Customers will be notified by email at the time of shipping. From that moment, customers in the UK get their orders within days. Orders sent from the Netherlands to EU addresses should take no longer than two weeks. Orders to US customers are shipped from inside the US, so most packages will get there within one to two weeks, depending on the USPS (which has been a bit unpredictable lately). Orders to all other worldwide destinations will take between two and three weeks to arrive.
Please also be aware that for customs, security and legal reasons, we are required to attach a shipping manifest to all orders larger than 2 kilos. In many countries, books and magazines are not subject to import tax, but depending on where you live, you may have to pay extra fees or duties above the cost of your actual order.
Subscriptions always start with the first upcoming issue. Once a new subscription has been processed, the subscriber will be notified by mail or email with an indication of the timeframe for this first issue.
New issues are shipped immediately upon receipt of stock from the printer. All subscribers will be notified by email at this time. Subscription copies should arrive within 10-15 days of that moment within Europe and within about three weeks in the rest of the world.
Note: If your delivery address changes after you purchase a subscription, please let us know. For more on change of address, see here.
We use a variety of shipping companies to get the best shipping rates as well as reliability and shipping speed. Most small orders are shipped via untracked post. Above a certain threshold that differs depending on where you are in the world, We ship via a variety of couriers including DHL, USPS, and DPD.
We realize that shipping costs for products in the store may sometimes seem unreasonably high, especially for our overseas customers. This is due to the realities of international shipping, which very quickly becomes quite costly for large, heavy orders. We are constantly searching for the best shipping rates we can and will pass these straight on to you, but even so, prices are likely to remain high for large orders.
For the most accurate information on shipping to your location, please use the shipping cost calculator in the shopping cart. It automatically shows the correct postage costs for your country and items in the cart at that time.
Some products and orders qualify for free shipping worldwide. This applies in these cases
