Shipping policy

Orders are despatched within 1-5 working days from receipt.  

The Forgotten Library is a UK based business operating on UK GMT.  

Using the Royal Mail delivery service items are estimated to arrive within 1-4 working days from despatch.  Please note delivery times are not guaranteed but an estimate of the service provided by Royal Mail.

Due to changing regulations and additional charges which are not sustainable for such a small business we are no longer able to deliver purchases from this website overseas.  If you live outside the UK and would like to purchase something you have seen here we can offer the item for sale through the Etsy platform.

Postage rates will vary depending on the products you would like to order.

There are two basic rates of postage.  One for cards and bookmarks (very small paper items like vintage labels are included in this) and one for everything else.  If you are ordering multiple items you only pay one charge in each postal category so if items come from two different categories the charges will be added together but multiple items under the same category are only charged one delivery price.

Cards and bookmarks - 

UK £1.50

Other items -

UK £2.50

 

Very heavy/fragile items incur an extra £5 charge.
