International Orders (Non-UK)

As of January 9th 2012 Vintage Amethyst no longer accepts orders from International customers.
Unfortunately a large number of parcels posted internationally are lost or damaged & cost us time & expense & so we made the difficult decision to only accept orders for the UK.
If you are outside of the UK but wish to send items to someone in the UK this is still acceptable.

Postage Costs

Our postage costs are calculated by weight and so if buying more than one item postage costs will be reduced according to weight automatically in your shopping basket. To keep an eye on your shopping and postage costs just click on the 'My Basket' link at the top of each shopping page.

Returns

If you are not fully satisfied with your purchase, simply return the item within 10 days of receipt. Please contact Vintage Amethyst first via e-mail, so that I may expect your item. Postal charges are not refundable.
Items must be delivered in their original condition and damage free.
Items which are damaged in the post must also be returned in original packaging.

Product Availability

We maintain the product stock on the website regularly but on rare occasions items may be out of stock. In this rare instance we will inform you immediately.

Despatch

Orders are despatched within 4 days but during busy times this may be slightly longer. Once your order has been processed and posted you will receive an e-mail informing you that it has been sent. Orders are usually received by customers within 3 days and generally sooner. In the unlikely event that your order has not arrived within 14 days of receiving the despatch e-mail please contact us. We cannot be held responsible for delays in receiving your order as a result of the postal carrier once the goods have left our premises.
