We will always do our best to help you regarding your countrys local import regulations but it may not always be feasible to declare such a low value on an order.

Please leave any requests in the comments section of your order.

You will have been previously informed should your order have been posted to you in seperate deliveries. For example, if an item you ordered is out of stock or has a slower turn-around time than the other item(s) in your order, it may have been part shipped.
In very rare cases, somewhere along the postal system your package may be compromised, so if you notice any immediate problems or missing items before signing for your delivery (registered/express shipping only), we strongly suggest you do not sign for the package and instead inform the courier of the problem and have him send it back to us.
Should however, in an extremely rare case, any parts of your order be missing whilst appearing on the invoice, please contact us immediately.
