A) Delivery charges – photographs, prints and other artwork (see later for books)
Delivery charges depend on the product in question, and the destination.
1. Unframed artwork
1.1 For UK customers
There are no delivery charges for sending unframed artwork to UK addresses, whatever the price. We use a ‘signed for’ next-working-day commercial courier for our UK deliveries.
1.2 For customers outside the UK
As a general principle, we don’t ever like to charge for delivery. However, for orders under a certain size, the economics don’t allow us to ship at no cost internationally. To keep it sensible, we have set the threshhold as low as we can, so that we are delivering as much as we can for you for no charge if you are outside the UK.
Here’s how it works: if you are outside the UK mainland and your artwork costs GBP 495 or more, there is no charge for shipping. If we ship outside the UK mainland and your artwork costs below that GBP 495 threshhold, shipping costs are as follows: Europe – GBP 50 ; USA – GBP75; Rest of World – GBP 95.
2 Framed artwork
If we are arranging to frame your artwork, then there is a delivery charge (dependent on size and location) because we have to use a specialist delivery company for framed items and not a regular commercial courier.
2.1 Framed artwork for UK customers
We can advise you on delivery charges once we know the type of frame, size and destination.
2.2 Framed artwork for customers outside the UK
If we are sending regular framed work outside the UK we need to use a specialist art packer/shipper. They are expensive. We can advise you on delivery charges once we know the type of frame, size and destination.We always recommend that if possible unframed and sort framing locally as it will be much more cost effective. 99% of our overseas clients choose to receive unframed work for this very reason.
B) Delivery charges – books
1.1 Limited edition books from Ormond Yard Press
Our publishing arm, Ormond Yard Press, produces ultra-large-format 18×24 inch limited edition books. The packaged weight of a single book is approx 9 kg (20 lbs), and there are shipping charges, depending on destination:
UK mainland: free delivery / Europe – GBP 50 / USA – GBP 75 / Rest of World GBP 95.
We also offer 12×12 inch books where the delivery costs are a little lower:
UK mainland: free delivery / Europe – GBP 30 / USA – GBP 45 / Rest of World GBP 60.
1.2 Other books
From time to time we offer books by other publishers. Where we list these online, the prices will include delivery within the UK mainland.
Sometimes we will only offer third party books online to customers in the UK mainland, so if you see a note or restriction to that effect, please do not order online if you are outside the UK mainland.
C) Aggregating
Bear in mind that if your total order is GBP 495 or more, then we will ship for free worldwide. The individual elements don’t all have to be GBP 495 – just the total – for you to access free shipping.
