How soon will my order be shipped?

As a small village, our post office is not open all the time, therefore our general policy is as follows:

- Orders made on Monday (before Midday) or Wednesday, Thursday & Friday (before 4pm) will be sent the same day.

- Orders made on Friday (after 4pm), Saturday & Sunday will be sent Monday. 

- The post office is closed on Tuesday so orders made then will be sent on Wednesday. 

While we try our best to keep to this, various factors sometimes mean this is not always possible - staff illness, sudden post office closure etc. - but we will let you know if there will be any serious delay in shipping your order (more than 2 days delay). 

 

When will my order arrive (within UK)?

All items are sent first class so you should receive your order the next working day (if ordered before 4pm) However, as a small village, Avebury does have a post office, though it is not open every day like larger towns therefore we cannot guarantee same day postage.

 

When will my order arrive (Outside UK)?

This depends on which country you want your order sent. Please email us at avebury@hengeshop.com to discuss this further.

Please be aware that some orders outside of the UK have been experiencing major delays that are beyond our control - It can take up to 4 weeks.

We suggest using a tracked service so you can track your parcel - we are unable to track any overseas orders that have been shipped using the standard service.
